I dunno if its the hormones going berserk again or is it because I’m ordered to stay at home by the doctor for gestational hypertension – because for some reason, I’m missing my parents so much.

So, here I am at my 26th week, 145 lbs. heavy and my waistline spanning almost 40 inches. In all honesty, I’m getting terribly insecure about my looks. My skin is getting dark, especially around my neck and underarms. I’m also starting to have a few, albeit long, ugly stretchmarks starting from the base of my tummy. And lastly, my nose is almost as wide as my face.

Survey

We conducted a survey a few months ago for the mag I’m working on. I just revisited the questions for study when I came across one of the questions:

6. For students, where do you study?
