Wedding Obsessing

I'm obsessing over what I would like for my wedding dress again.

I think I'm settling on silver or in that family. I remember seeing a wedding show years ago when I was in my early teens where the bride had color on the underside of her dress. I was so amazed by it and ever since then, I knew I did not want a boring white wedding dress. I still want to look and feel like a bride, but without the stark white which washes me out anyway.

We're not engaged yet but it's coming and that does not give much time to plan everything out. From the looks of things, I will have to have a fall/late fall wedding. I'm guessing mid to late November due to exams being in the fall. If we're on modules then we can be married in September or October. I love the fall anyway and silver would fit in quite nicely I think

I think I like Maggie Sottero's designs so far. Hopefully, the dress is affordable. They do not post prices on their website.

Relaxer Stretch

This morning on my way to work, I randomly decided that since I am studying for actuarial exams in November, I will stretch my relaxer until then which would mean no relaxer for 3 months. My last touch-up was in mid-August and I will get another touch up in mid-November.

The key I hear to stretching relaxer is moisture. Therefore, I will be adding a moisturizing co-wash to my weekly regimen. I don't have much spare time, so this will all have to be done at night, especially now that it's starting to get colder.

My main concern is itching. I have an itchy scalp and it tends to become extremely intense at around the 7 week mark. I've had to reschedule relaxers due to this issue.
Hopefully, with co-washing, tea tree oil and my trusty oinment from my dermatologist, I can get through this stretch with my scalp intact.

Wish me luck!

If I had $10M dollrs

What would I do if I had a ton of money? The scary thing is that I don't know!? That's a bit scary. I would probably quit job, save most of it, donate some of it, travel.
You can only vacation for so long. Would I be involved in charity work? Would I continue to become an actuary. Would I work again. Start a business.

Would probably get a nice house with a house-keeper to clean up few days per week./
Maybe I'd get back into music again? Would I attempt to write again? Poetry maybe?
I don't even know if I have it in me anymore.

Thinking

Just a random thought. It seems that the problem with human beings, myself included, is that we don't like to think.
Thinking involved responisbility, creating. In order to create and really be successful, you must think in a certain way and it just seems so difficult. Does it seem at time that a part of you is just pretty much locked, like you have no access to a room in your home? That's how I feel, and I'm sure others do sometimes.
Thinking something into existence is not easy. We like to believe that we can't do anything significant because it's easier that way.
Imagine if we did unlock this inaccessible room, what we can accomplish!

In Awe

In Awe?
you kinda like me huh.
I kinda like you too.
In awe you say
In awe of what
You say the beauty of my face
My demeanour
I'm just me
Nothin more and nothing less
I'm absolutely in awe.
In awe of whatever this is
how a friend ends up becoming something more
how a friend ends up invading your daily thoughts with no mercy.
I'm in awe.
In awe of your gentle strength.
your openess
willing to let me see you just as you are.
I'm in awe.
You're in awe you say
that makes the two of us.
In awe of this universe.
I'm in awe
and becoming more and more awed.
by you.
the minute i learn something new about you
I'm in awe.
the minute i reveal somethign I'm scared to
and you don't run away
I'm in awe.
I'm in awe that you even like me.
I'm in awe
that i even like you.
this is awful!

Things Change

It's amazing how quickly things can change. I just broke up with Patrick in late June. Now a month or so later, I'm with Scott. Crazy how quickly things can change. They are so different, it's strange how I was attracte to both of them. Ah well...
