Hairy affairs

Am enjoying the cool afternoon breeze in the comforts of my living room. Technically I should be doing some work cos from next week onwards, there will be an avalanche of clashing deadlines that will keep me buried till May. But then the lazier side of me won and I've decided that today is a strictly R&R day. Plus, this year is going to be a take-it-super-easy year for me!!!! :'/

On a totally unrelated note, I have fallen in love with curling my hair ever since I bought the iron curler. I have sworn in my youth that I will NEVER curl my hair after I got married. The reason is that almost everyone curls their hair after getting married! And for some reason it always makes them look old. Either that or cut their hair short. Ok lah, it's much fresher (Mr. Jang also asked me more than a few times if I want to cut) but I want to keep it long and flowy cos I love doing stuff to my hair! Tie, twist, plait, curl, cut. Speaking of which, I still recall that I was badly caned by Grandpa in kindergarten cos I lied about cutting my own bangs. Bleah. I could have been an outstanding hairstylist, Grandpa...

Anyway, I was about to say that now I understand why people do stuff to themselves after getting married. 1) you feel like you are entitled to do anything since you've just lived past one of the more important phase in your life. 2) you really need to destress after all those heavy preparations. 3) your husband has already vowed to love you no matter what... even if you spot the most horrible hairstyle, they ain't gonna run nowhere... what fantastic news!

So, here's how the DIY curly hair looked. I wish I wasn't standing beside two of the most beautiful people I know though (chick + sis) cos that means I look even older! But what the heck... who won't grow old right? :p And just because one looks older doesn't mean that he/she is not pretty lah... hahaha...
