That awkward stage

This was posted when I was pregnant with Haider :).

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I’m at that stage in my pregnancy where all my pants and kain baju kurung are a bit tight around my waist – they are still wearable but not very comfy. But then, I’m still not big enough to wear the maternity pants whereby if I were to wear them, I would look like a clown in oversized pants.

But alas, I’m choosing comfort over vanity right now. I really can’t be bothered about how I look nowadays. And so, today I decided to wear my maternity pants and voila! I look like a dorky clown… sigh! I really wish I could wear sweat pants to work.

I’m also starting to gain back the weight that I had lost since my pregnancy started. My appetite is still not that good – only eating about half to three-quarter of the portion that I usually ate previously (and you’d be surprise how much that amounts to!). I’ve also started slathering myself with stretch mark cream – more to prevent the itchiness so that I would avoid looking like a scratching monkey and/ or behaving inappropriately in public.

Anyway, it’s the last day of the year 2008 and I’m more than ready to bid farewell to the year. Au revoir, adieu, adios amigos. I wish I have a crystal ball to see what lies ahead for me in 2009, but that would just take the thrill out of life, wouldn’t it?

Resolution? Emmm… let’s just say I don’t want to make any resolutions that I won’t be able to keep.

See you next year!
