met meiping and kahyan yesterday and we thought that perhaps results will be released this friday...
eeps! that is like how very soon, ya? i kinda dread getting my results back yet at the same time i want to get it back.. it's the butterflies-in-the-stomach feeling. first time experiencing it so strongly though, i'm even a little jittery at work.
panic, panic panic!
in the meantime, inky, blinky , pinky and clyde will keep me company.

new year's around the corner! like how time flies sia... the 1 month to clean up the mess in my room just became 5 days!! -.-
*whoops*
haven't been out recently except to meet up with friends or with my sister. basically, i guess for now i don't have much of a life because work is so super hectic. *bleh!* but even so, on the train or the bus i can't help but notice a worrying trend.
is it me, or have flesh-eating monsters been attacking our singaporean girls? or maybe it's just because they're obsessed with being skinny. thankfully, not all of us are like that!! but it's just that more and more are becoming so unnaturally SKIIINNNYY that they look too thin and kind of sallow, that makes it a concern.
especially disturbing scenes include:
1. two office ladies on the train commenting on how flabby they are and deciding to work out at planet fitness until they achieve their ideal figure. 'gu gan' according to one of them, which literally translated would mean 'feeling like bones'.
Trust me, if you can find any form of flab, it would be because i'm standing next to them on the train.
2. waltzing past a shelf in Borders with a large group of uniformed schoolgirls crowding in front of it oohing and aahing, only to realise that it's a shelf on diets. Cabbage soup, atkins, low-carb and the like... these young girls can actually be commenting to each other, ' i've tried low-carb leh, but it doesn't seem to work...'
of the two i think the latter is more disturbing...
Why are people not content with the way they are to the point that they have to starve themselves? Sometimes i can't help but wonder if being skinny is the only thing in the minds of the students i tutor! [i sincerely hope not.]
because instead of asking me how to improve their english when i come in the morning, they ask how they can lose weight! [ not that i would know, since the only thing i ever tried to do was to exercise more in hopes of warding off heart failure 10 years from now.]
sigh. like i said thankfully not all of us are like that. but i hope the rest who are can just be content with themselves and realise there's more to life and even beauty than that.
