I AM BACK!

I have been away from my this blog for too long.

Updates!

I got married last September and currently expecting my first baby.

2010 was really a hectic year for me, long story short, I was a bridezilla who
took over all the planning for my wedding. Good thing was, I melted lots of fat naturally while stressing over wedding details. So I ended up looking quite a looker on pictures and of course on the actual day :).

As for 2011, my husband and I were not planning for a baby for another year or two, but things get happenend :P for a reason and we are now expecting our baby eagerly.

For the past few weeks, my mind has been slowly lingering back to this blog. Many friends are curious on what kind of food or supplements I take for my pregnancy, and one of the main question they ask is always " Where do you get the proteins?"

Even before I told my chinese herbal doctor that I am vegetarian, he suggested I should stuffed myself with meats.....lots of it!

A friend also suggested I keep a blog as well as she would like to know more my pregnancy, the classes I attend, and the things I do. Apprently to her, I come across as those who do lots of research and she can just take notes from what I do.
Unbeknownst to her, I have a walking baby information encyclopedia, my best friend, Lisa.

Lisa has a 2 year old boy and a 6 months old baby boy. For my dear Lisa, I feel there should a separate post of her.

So dear blog and friends (let me assume I do have a few people reading my blog), I
will update more informations on my pregnancy, a peak into what a vegetarian eats and do to have a healthy bouncing baby.

EAT, PRAY, LOVE- Book Review



My latest edition to my little library, went crazy to get it after I seen its trailer with Julia Roberts in it. Ok, I am a Julia fan. After reading its synopsis on wikipedia, I knew I had to get it.

A non fiction work which I actually enjoy.

One of my secret dream is to travel around(who doesn't? Duh and not so secret anymore). It can be any country or continent, I would be happy to explore the country.

So this book kinda click with my secret dream. Except the writer seems to have it all but she goes into a soul searching trip, by divorcing her husband, living in a small apartment while paying for a vacant beautiful suburbs house she used to share with her husband and also decided to give herself a year holiday visiting Italy (Eat), India (Pray) and Bali (Love). The travel is possible because she received an advance for a travel book. Too good to be true?!

I do not even mind if its a fiction, this book make me feel I am human, and its ok to feel certain ways even when things appear to cheery.

A positive read.

Here, a trailer on Eat,Pray, Love in case you are wondering what I just wrote or you are too lazy to read the book.

Marion Cotillard for Lady Dior



Doesn't she look like a young Susan Sarandon in this ad?

For those who do not know her, Marion is a French actress who won an Ocsar/ BAFTA for her portrayal of Edith Piaf in La Vie en Rose. Recently, she received a Golden Globe nomination for the musical Nine.
