I love them as a couple because they don’t look like those typical Hollywood couples, if you know what I mean. and Hilary Duff’s father was sentenced to a 10 – days jail? tsk tsk. it’s 3am, and I’m trying not to sleep, just so I can sleep early later tonight. I’ve been sleeping at 4am for the past few days, and wasted half the days, woke up at 3pm. gah! I swear I set my mobile alarm at 8am but I ended up switching the alarm off and went back to sleep. so I’ve found a way for me to get back to proper sleeping hour. more sleep, less meal – will that make you gain or lose weight? xx
