ahhh shiiit. i feel so bloody fat. can people gain weight in 2 days? we went to the gym on thursday. me, huey eng, joanie, jessica stone and ivan. haha. i didnt dare weigh myself cuz the scale was digital, and we all know how grossly accurate digital scales can be. got decimal place somemore! but anyway, THE TRUTH IS NOT SOMETHING TO BE FEARED.
anyway, i lost weight. like, ????!!!!!!!!!! so happy that i lost weight! yayyyyy. haha..YAYYYYYYYYYYY!! but then yesterday i ate ICE CREAM. the culprit of all culprits, the demon of all demons, the primary cause of weight gain in people who lead sedentary lifestyles and who have depressingly slow metabolic rates.
AHHHHHHHHHHH. ITS ALL HUILIN'S FAULT!! she offered me a ya kun ice cream toast thingy, which piqued the curiosity of my sugar-starved tastebuds. and then we had another round of ice cream at swensons, celebrating gerladine's 117th birthday. the sin of all sins. im so sorry, thighs and waist. time and again, i let you down. =(
my tummy gets bigger after eating! WHY?! its not normal, is it?? i see other people maintaining their bloody flat abs even after stuffing themselves silly. this is so unfair. i must write a letter of complaint to the Tummy Association and demand some sort of compensation to make up for the irreparable damage the have subjected mine to. i feel guilty after eating a proper meal. seriously.
i have been such a sickie today. in the words of mr sanuse. haha. or is it mr sanusi? whatever. i woke up this morning with a monsterous body ache and a terrible sore throat. flu right! but i had no fever, Thus, it wasnt the flu. mom gave me some painkiller thingamajigs and i felt instantly better after taking em. but she still made me eat lunch. which thereafter inspired me to contemplate the pros and cons of puking. the con outweighed the pro though, it being that the aftertaste of puke is not something remotely pleasant.
here's an observation i've made:
1. most singaporean females above the age of 20 look alike. (long, rebonded hair etc) i guess most people think its SAFER to keep long hair, even though practically 90% of the female population have it.
2. "all i want for christmas is my two front teeth' is grammatically wrong. i mean, maybe im slow on this one and maybe the whole world has already known this since the first time they heard it.
i borrowed Philosophy for Dummies =p cool huh. its so intriguing and insightful and intellectually stimulating. i wish we could study philosophy from a young age. it makes you question things in life that might otherwise and, very commonly so, be taken for granted. oh and DID YOU KNOW?? socrates was sentenced to death by being made to consume poison.
"Many of the young people in Athens were impressed with socrates' razor-sharp intellect and often followed him about, imitating his probing style of conversation and offending even more people. in fact, by the age of 70, socrates and his follwers had angered so many rominent citizens in Athens that he was accused and tried on the two trumped-up charges of corrupting the youth and of not believing in the gods of the city but following other gods instead."
haha..i love philosophy. i love Philosophy. its so much more worth reading and studying in great detail than say, math. no offence to all you math geniuses out there.
The unexamined life is not worth living- Socrates. SO. Do not be washed along the sea of life blindly, or believe in things Just Because, or reduce the rhythm of life to a dull, pathetic monotone. Life should be colourful, meaningful, enriching and FUN. Do things for a reason, and believe in things because you have reason to. That's basically what i got out of reading 35 pages of Philosophy for Dummies. there's more to come, so stay tuned to this blog for more bitesized snippets of Philosophy. haha.
