life at 26

How has my life changed?
Let me count the ways.

1. Life officially kicks off at 4.30am every weekday. I start work at 5am and end abt 3.30pm. Ouch.

2. I am 4 kg heavier than what i was before giving birth. Still working on it. My beautiful clothes still feel too snug for comfort. Double ouch.

3. After work, I either head to the gym across the road.

4. Or head home to look after baby. That takes the whole nite.

5. I work with a bunch of ang mohs... and i can feel myself adapting to their sense of humour, their working styles and accents. They are extremely intelligent, don't suffer fools and are very focused at work. On the upside, i work a lot faster and with more integrity, cos that's how they are. On the downside, i feel like i haven't got any real friends yet.

6. I've made (bad!) mistakes, and I've got compliments. It kinda balances out.

7. My life is very streamlined now. It's just work, baby, husband, family, friends and last of all, me-time. Me-time?? What is that???

8. Weekends? I groom. Waxing, tweezing, treatments, facials...these are blissful escapades. That, and the baby.

9. I've become very focused at work. With the amount of things I need to pick up, there's no other choice. Despite being new, I've been thrown right into the deepest end of things. I think it's a test. That i need to ace.

10. Some things don't change. Marco, for instance, is cuter and smarter by the day. I can exchange anything in the world for him, in a heartbeat.
