afternoon quickie

i thought this quick update would help preserve my sanity, whatever's left of it anyway. writing for work is starting to render me a bit nauseous. writing about food when you're supposed to be on a diet doesn't help neither. nor does planning for a wedding in the midst of all these chaos.

there's just so much to think about. both work and wedding. but work is still manageable, well hopefully, once a new writer comes in to take some load off my shoulders.

wedding, well there's really no escape. i hoped for a small wedding but considering i'm the eldest and only girl in my small family (well, keeno and chicka have been spayed so they're doomed to grow up a spinster. they don't count) a small wedding is quite a big thing to ask for, apparently. and a mere 4 months to plan a big wedding is no perhentian island holiday let me tell you. but thank god i have my mom who's more excited about all this than i do. so i can partly wash my hands clean on most part. mostly hard part.

getting myself physically prepared is no walk in the park either. refraining from eating, doing some sort of physical exercises like picking up strewn clothes in my room and playing paperball futsal with keeno, or continuously changing channels using the remote. changing beauty placebos to more expensive ones. i regard them as placebos but honestly, they actually noticeably work - like i'm currently using benefit's face cream and facial scrub - amazing products! and i've also changed my shampoo to schwarzkopf's gliss kur which oddly sounds like a mongolian tyrant but i'm loving my hair! so glossy, so bouncy.

OH MY GOD I'M SO VAIN. WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH ME?

oh, talking about refraining from eating, yesterday ayis and i went to the recently opened Carl's Jr. at one utama. i was really disappointed when they couldn't make western bacon burger because they run out of their delectable barbecue sauce. they actually, absurdly suggested substituting the sauce with mayonnaise. that's heresy! i was hoping, that with the first bite of that awesome cheeseburger, i get to rekindle some nostalgic pre-pubescent memories of hanging out with school-mates every friday before school at the CJ near our school.

but ultimately we ended up with a sinful helping of a big ass superstar burger with chili fries on the side. the price for that guilty meal is only about RM23.00. yeah, rather pricey for a burger that tastes curiously like a whopper, but when you can't stand up straight for half and hour because you're too stuffed .. i think it's worth it.

and because of that, i'm refraining from eating lunch today.
