The long and short of it

EXTREME MAKEOVER. That is what i am up to these days. Though, I never really intended to go down this path. To cut a long story short (pun entirely intended), I am still recovering from a hair-styling disaster. Why do I call it as such? Well....I was initially inspired by my idol Carrie Bradshaw.

So I bravely decided to get my locks styled like this.......

But finally, ended up with, well, THIS..........................

So you get the picture. When I secretly hoped to look like an Oscar winner, I was thinking Julia Roberts and Halle Berry. Not Javier Bardem.

K looked at me, tried very hard to suppress his broad grin and remarked "awww, you look just like....err...a little boy....oops..no,no,....i swear i meant little girl". Hmmpphh...speaking of Freudian slips...

The bright side of all this is, K's affections are comfortingly unchanged. I guess this is what they mean by true love then. Loyal mom of course loved it (Loyal Mom is a free spirit at heart, and I suspect she vicariously lives out some of her long suppressed desires through me)

Anyways,trying to make the best of a bad situation, I decided to upgrade my entire look, aiming to do the whole cute sporty girl thing. Only problem is, the rest of me is ANYTHING but sporty. So, this has inspired me to launch yet another (no please don't groan already) new self improvement endeavor (and blog series): The Skinny fat girl. Watch this space!
