Entry: Feel Good Time Thursday, October 29, 2009



I remember being rather emotional and overwhelmed with sadness right after giving birth to Diya. I know that those are just hormonal reaction and it is quite normal to experience some level of post-partum depression. I remember hating myself and am pretty gutted at myself for letting that feeling overpower me because I generally am a very2 happy person. I remember hating my body so much. I was so mad at myself for 'letting go' and overindulgeding sugar and fats, all in the name of pregnancy. But I guess everything happened for a reason. And I did learned to be more prepared this time around.

This pregnancy, not only I was able to maintain my weight under my personal target, I think I consume healthier food than before (coffee being the exception). I still enjoyed chocolates and sweets but in moderation.

And as a preparation for possible post-partum hormones attack, I decided to pamper myself before the baby comes. I want to look good on the outside and feel good in the inside. Hopefully this self-pampering strategy will do the trick. :) So...I did a little bit accessories shopping, and...... I CUT MY HAIR!! Yup! I decided to trust ubie and his hair-cutting skills. I asked for a victoria beckham's pob but ended up with Eva longoria's bob. Haha.. I know asking him to give me a Pob is a it ambitious. But it was pretty nonetheless.

 


This is what I asked


This is what I got

 

I'm not gonna show my hair yet. It's not finish yet. I'm having some colours in, again DIY. I got this from boots yesterday (it was on a very good discount)

L'OREAL EXCELL 10 NATURAL DARK BROWN 4.0


Mentang2 lah Eva Longoria is the ambassador for this product.. ngeh.ngeh..

 

Anyways, am going to get this done today. But I'm still unsure whether to put it as hair highlights or just color my whole hair. I read reviews on the internet and most ppl said that its gonna turn out darker than expected. Erk.. dahle I got the darkest shade.. hmmm...   Maybe I should first test it by highlighting my bangs and see what color it will turn out.

Then, I'm gonna ask ubie to trim my hir a bit. (masih jugak nak berangan nak dapatkan posh pob nihhh...!)  

ps: I have one grey hair!! Discovered it the day ubie cut my hair. aiyo! Didnt pluck it out coz they say 10 others will come to its funeral. LOL.

oyis: my hubby mmg ambil upah potong rambut orang masa kat uni dolu. Tapi dia biasa potong rambot lelaki ajorr.. hihi.. mula2 risau gak nak bagi da potong tp I ni jenis gamble orangnya. LOL. BTW i think reaction after birth tu memang sangat2 hormonal. Padahal kelahiran tu amat dinanti2 kan?

Yzma: Oh tak sempatt! aku dah color pun. Tp dah buat skin alergy test before so insyaallah selamat. :)

Fab: Must go and get that haircut. rambut pendek nampak lebih lebat. Kita mmg genetik rambut sikit kan na?

i remember lps bersalinkan aisyah, 1st time nak mandi after the op, masuk je bilik air, i stood up tu, still x leh nak nmpk my toes from above. Imagine that, baby dah kuar perut, tp perut still boyot. dah la wibble wobble mcm jelly. sungguh buruk n kat2 situ jgk menangis! ntah apa2, walhal kehadiran aisyah dah lama berzaman di tggu. Alhamdulillah not long after that nmpk normal balik perut but i guess bcoz c-sec, kdg2 still nmpk perut tu mcm x symmetrical plak :p

and i sooo need a haircut too, but Hubs ni penakut, mintak potong straight pon x reti katanya. huhu...
