TIME AND BRAIN

When I was young, I would fall asleep on the couch or the floor... And wake up in bed. 
Wow, WOW! WOW!!! I've always thought it's magic!




Now I know there's nothing magical to it.











Funny how age can do funny things to your brain.

SCRAPPED

The old vehicle is getting scrapped TODAY! 


It feels weird, really; considering that it has served us for 18 long years.



Anyway, the new vehicle is arriving this Thursday!

TERM 1, TERM 2... TERM 3 (AND YOU'RE FAT)

In the blinking of an eye, Term 3 is over and finished. 3 more months to go, and I'LL BE WORKING FULL-TIME FOR A FULL YEAR!!! 


Time flies so fast.






On a sidenote, RO (my supervisor) is back! He came back during the last week of Term 3.

For Term 1 and Term 2, I've had repeated, well-meaning "nags" from him to eat more. He'll say it to the face, straight. Something to the likes of: You're skinny (thin would be a more kinder word, in my opinion). Guys won't like it. Really, I'm a guy. A bit more flesh would be better.


To sum it up, it's all about guys liking slim women with curves. Apparently, I'm a beanpole by his standards. Even though he didn't say it per se, but the gist is there. His intention is well-meaning, and I'm not offended. He used to joke, asking me to drop by his gym to "tone up". Anyway, his main point is: BE MEATIER.





This is his advice for the whole of Term 1 and Term 2. And then, he went on No-Pay-Leave to set up said gym.


He came back last week. 






The first opportunity we had to chat (which was last Wednesday), he commented,"You know, I saw you at the parade square on Monday morning. And from far ah, can see that 你肥了一点."

"You've put on a bit of weight, right? I see very accurate one. I own a gym; maybe that's why I've acquired a critical eye when it comes to physique. You've put on a little weight. And I think you look better. Really. See liao more 顺眼."

I'm still feeling so affected by this. Yeah, I mean, I know men like curves and all. But, hey!! 我肥了!!!!!!!! It feels like being handed a death sentence; only it's worse! *cue lightning bolt* I'm feeling so conflicted inside! I'm more curvy now, yeahhh!!! BUT I'M PUTTING ON WEIGHT!!!!!! FLABS!!!  


SAVE MEEEEE!!!





I'm still fighting the temptation to go on a diet.
