pantang mantang

Reasons why I am so tired lately are:

a) I wii at night. Wii (nintendo) AND wee-wee (the 'side effects' of pregnancy). Lack of sleep.
b) I am in the midst of updating my website. KF...HELP!
c) I am 4 1/2 pounds heavier than before.
d) Since Gucci got his balls chopped off, he wants me to play catch with him more frequently
and
e) I have to observe so many pantang larangs during my pregnancy, it makes me constantly paranoid and worried.

Among the (MANY) pantang larangs that (everyONE) is telling me to do (or NOT do) is to not use the scissors. So, if I need to cut any articles, letters or even the tali on my bachang, I have to ask my inlaws, maids or friends to assist me. Yes. It sounds pretty ridiculous. Especially when I like my scissors. So my makeup artist trims my bulu kening, my mother in law helps with the interesting articles I like to keep and my maids help me in the kitchen.

Thank GOD I have IPL-ed my bulu bawah...so at least its not like I'm going to be a jungle when I deliver her/him. However, just the other night, I was getting very annoyed with my fringe. Too late to go to A Cut Above and too early to just sleep in with a "screw that" attitude, so I decided to be creative and took a rusty nail cutter to trim my fringe.

A nail cutter is not a pair of scissors right? So, I'm 'safe'. But you'd think I'd have enough sense to use a sharp nail cutter right?

Nope.

And because the results weren't that great to begin with, I decided to have the jagged look all over.

Wrong move.
