The subject of divorce

Even after almost a decade together, I still find myself learning things about my better half.

The day we stop learning about each other is the day we stop caring and that would be the end of our marriage. Just the thought of it is both heartbreaking and inconceivable.

I guess that too would be the day I die.

We had a huge fight recently and broached the subject of D. Before I continue, obviously we have sorted both our grievances out.

Anyway, after we made up, the hubs mentioned that he read something about men earning 17% more after divorce while women 11% less after divorce.

Then he smiled like a troll.

I told him if we ever split up, he better be earning 300% more to spite me because I’d land a stud that would put his net worth to shame.

He asked me how in hell would I be able to do that.

“Well, first I’d get fitter. Then I’d get a subtle nose job. Possibly growing my hair long again cause men love that sort of thing. A new wardrobe of course. All with the money I got from our hypothetical divorce and some extra aiding by my awesome personality.”

Hanging out with the girls

Hung out with two of my oldest girlfriends – Jayna and Ying Ying. We have known each other since primary school.

We hadn’t stayed in touch consistently through the years and it’s kind of sad sometimes to realise we had missed out a lot about each other’s lives.

Whenever we see each other though, the conversations flow freely. It is the kind of bond you just don’t get with friendships you forge in your adulthood. Glad we are all making more effort now to meet up :)

Jayn and Ying’s birthdays are coming up soon and since I won’t be seeing either of them during the actual days, decided to take today’s opportunity in making a birthday cake.

Weird names

Is it me or is really difficult to find real wraparound dress? By real I mean a dress you have to tie up to secure it and not stitched together to make it looks like it’s tied up.

Unfortunately, my one and only wraparound dress is not fitting so well anymore.

It’s kinda crazy for me to say this but I think this dress needs a bit of curve to wear. I think I looked better in it when I had more meat.

I haven’t lost weight but I am growing shapeless. They say you shrink as you get older, I think that is what’s happening to me.

I look like a freaking oak tree trunk…I wanna look like a bonsai gawdamit! I wanna be all curvy and shit.

Anyway, dress from Nichii. Shoes from Bangkok. Bag from ri2k.

Seriously,  I have no idea what to talk about. So, am just going to regurgitate.

Kim Kardashian and Kanye West have named their new born girl, North West.

Well done! They said they’re going to just call her Nori. My question is, why not just name her Nori then?

There’s this case of child naming that I read in the book Freakonomics that I will always remember. This mother named her sons Lemonjello and Orangejello.

It was an innocent, but no less hilarious mistake by an uneducated mother because she pronunced her sons names as the vaguely italian sounding, “Lur-munn-jer-low” and “Oar-ran-jer-low”.

I guess some people can’t help it that their parents were high on something while filling up their birth certificates.

What I am perplexed over though are adults who call themselves things like “Fish” and “Hymen”.

Seriously.
