Wow. It's been a while and a half, huh? Ok, for the news updates:

1. Got promoted very very recently to International Lawyer within my firm. I get to stay in the same team and do the exact same work, but get the perks of a lawyer as opposed to those awarded to the staff. Also a small pay hike. Nowhere near as much as it ought to be, but as least now I'm being screwed a bit less.

2. Very very recently returtned from a 10-day trip to California. Went to the bay area with my folks to visit my brother. Liked Frisco a lot; loved Little Italy. Awesome neighbourhood with great food and coffee! I might prefer DC over Frisco, though, in general. DC is prettier. And I also might favour Philly over Frisco, but that could very well be because I lived in the former for 4 whole years.

3. Gained a ton of flab in the last 3 months with the result of most of my wardrobe not fitting me. Down in the dumps about that, but working on it.

4. What's scarier is that I'm like a hair's breadth away from hitting 30 and my mtabolism has gone for a toss. I used to be able to drop weight like that, but in the last 4-5 months, it's taking me a lot longer to do so. Harbinger of my life post-30...

5. Speaking of, I'm hosting a mega bash for my 30th birthday. Planning to get both professional and amateur male strippers!!! It's been so damn long since I've seen a naked male body, jeeeesus! So anyway. Have given notice to all my guy friends to go hit the gym and shape up in time for the bash. Amatuer (free) strippers, oh yeeeaaaahhhh!!!

6. Saw Hangover when I was in CA.... "Not you, fat Jesus." High-larious.
