back for a moment

A really busy and exciting August for me.

My life has changed pretty much. Lost 3kg in a month. My whoop-ass runs at 6am twice a week and a daily 1hr swim seems to be working. I bring my lunchbox to work everyday without fail all thanks to my loving mother who sacrifices her sleep just so to prepare homecooked meals for me. (Love you, Mum!) Now on a daily basis, I make a conscious effort to dress up or doll up to work cause I realise that this dolling up and dressing up works! I started getting noticed by people, by colleagues. Especially Mr Turkish Delight who sits in front of me. *blush* Simply feeling happy for even the slightest smiles or hello exchanged. I feel like I am back in school whenever we walk past. *heart beats fast* The feeling I thought I almost forgot.... Okay enough of sounding like a total bimbo - I am still me, the Elaine that all of you know in some way or another.

Most importantly, my life has become so occupied I no longer think of the pains and hurts he once caused. But I know I am still not ready to be his friend again or ever. Out of sight, out of mind. My life is starting to revolve around myself and learning to love myself more each day and not allowing anyone anymore to have a chance to hurt me. *thumbs up*

My months continue to be filled. September is just around the corner and boy, I am already packed to the brim and over-spilling. But in between all these, I manage to squeeze in a High Tea Date with my bestest buddies which I think we are going to have an awesome time. September also made time for Girls Night Out, two runs, Hens Night, Chill out with Colleagues, Wedding! and the start of my external course for work. "Phew!" and thank goodness, October is coming once September ends. And October is where I can already feel the pressure increasing as I have joined a "CCA" at work. Shall blog about this another time. See I am in fact a very busy lady. hah.

Yet admist all the things that are happening and things that needs my attention, I still am lusting for my next trip! I want to make it to Cambodia in November! So got to try my luck with those crazy air tickets sales on budget airlines. I will make it happen and when I say to make it happen, I make it happen =) (i hope!)

And by the way, i am changing my blog name soon. lainetravelogues should be the new name. So do take note that starrylainez will cease to exist once September comes. maybe a few days extension depending how quick my few regular readers are updated with it. So regulars, please do take note and if you still wanna read this space of mine =) drop me a comment so i know when to officiate the new blog name
