Fat VS Thin

To those of you that watches The Simple Life starring Paris Hilton and Nicole Richie may recall Nicole saying that being called skinny is an equal insult to being called fat.

I agree. It's tough being thin. Especially when you're those type that cannot gain weight, or grow larger, no matter how much you consume.

I admit, I'm very skinny. To the extent that rings, watches, bracelets, and clothes are HARD to find. In fact, I find kid's clothings aged 12-14 large for me. I find it tough to buy stuffs from US/UK/Australian brands because...they simply DO NOT FIT ME! And this doesn't include ONLY clothes, but accessories as well. Bangles, necklaces, belts...all these can never fit me. *pouts*

"Eat more lah!" is what I get when I complain about my size. You think it's that easy? I have a high metabolism rate, which means...I get super hungry really fast, and I eat a lot! Just that all those are burnt real quickly (which explains why I go to the toilet everyday). And even if I can gain weight easily, I AM SHORT! Which means expanding horizontally would also mean making my height more obvious (it's psychology that the more skinny people tend to look taller than one with more meat). And I'm a girl. To that extent, I'm vain.

People often are jealous because, peeps like me...can eat whatever we want, but yet remain our usual size. When we actually are trying soooo hard to gain weight. The same way bigger sized people are trying to hard to lose weight. It's not easy. And it's certainly not fun when people keeps commenting about how lucky I am.

Being skinny also means we're all skin and bones. NO sexy curves. No hot body. It sucks when you wear sleeveless and it doesn't look good on you as it does on people with more meat. It sucks when clothes hang losely on you instead of being tight fitting. And being commented on how lucky I am being skinny...it's just not right.

So, in conclusion (I know I have more points than these when I was thinking about it during bathing) being skinny is as bad as being fat.

A Day Full of SHITS!

Today's a bad day for me, as you can see from my tweets and...to those who saw me face to face, my FACE! Here's the whole story:

As some of you know, I got called for interview today, for an Advertising & Promotion Executive position. It's one of my dream job actually, so was pretty excited when I attended the interview, was briefed on the job description (whom he painted a colourful picture of what I would be doing), and got invited for a one-day full observation to see if I match what the company's searching for in an individual.

Woke up to this fateful day at 6.20 am for a 9.00 appointment. Rushed like crazy thinking it would be jammed (KL road. Public holiday. What more can I say?) and tough to find parking once I reached there. Who knew traffic was awesomely smooth, with ample parking lots! Got into this pay-by-hour parking lot, and noticed that the gates were opened and no tickets came out when I pressed for it. Okay fiiiine, I thought it was free on a public holiday. As I was early, I sat in the car, berkaraoke-ing sekejap to Britney's song (in which I think is the only highlight of the day).

At 8.45 am, I started walking towards the office. Went the opposite direction. Smart. Knowing me and my sense of direction, it's normal. Reached at 8.50, went up to the office, and was told I was early =.=!!! 10 minutes early also cannot. This shows my enthusiasm but I guess it's not important. Asked me to return at 9.15. Fiiiiine..

Walked to the nearest mamak, and met A and B (two guys who were called for the one day observation like I was). Minum sama-sama, exchanged brief information about ourselves, and B said that there was one similar (with different company name) in PJ in which he was called for too. Saying that the one-day observation's basically direct marketing from TABLE TO TABLE. I was disappointed but decided to give the benefit of doubt, thinking since it was from a different company, it may not be like that.

Walked up with them, got assigned to our personal trainers, and were brought into their cars. That was when A, as smart as he is, thought ahead, and decided the job wasn't suitable for him and cabuted. I...was dumb enough to give them a chance to prove themselves wrong and went with them...all the way...to Kuchai Lama.

KEBABISH!

The team I went with were pretty friendly actually. So, we had breakfast there, chit chatted for a while, then start...PROMOTING. Guess what product. A KING SIZED LIGHTER AS LONG AS YOUR SCIENTIFIC CALCULATOR!!! If you were to throw it at a dog, I swear it'll pengsan on the spot. And who would actually buy such a hideous, huge, useless thing! I mean, a small lighter is more handy. But...being a marketer, we only convey the positive traits don't we? =p Conman we are.

Walked from table to table trying to get people to buy our product. In hawker stalls, mamaks, restaurants, and shoplots. In the hot sun. On my heels. In double layer of clothings. With that bloody lighter in my hand. Direct selling. Something I find it annoying as a customer. And yet here I was doing it. GAHHH!

Thank GOD after lunch I was allowed to go back. And I thought my bad day was over but nooooooooooooo.....it's just as bad. Was left to go back on my own. Meaning...not knowing exactly where I was and where's the nearest most convenient mode of transport back to Ampang, I had to take taxi, swallow whatever crap he says about normal taxi fees and paid a walloping RM10 for a stupid short ride to the nearest KTM station.

Took the train (in which I was supposed to get down at Chan Sow Lin and interchange to the train to Ampang). Thank goodness the ticket conductor was kind enough to give me a map (with a calendar!!) card just in case I have no clue on where to go. Thank you abang!!! =D

Upon reaching Ampang, I again was clueless where the heck I was, and took a taxi (1 km ride) to Ampang Point, where my car was parked. The taxi driver was alright though, honest, used the meter, and friendly. Another RM 5 gone :(

Had to cross this huuuuuge metal jejantas to the other side after getting down from the taxi. ALMOST DIED! Because the metal bridge was rusty. and in between every step, there's a huge gap in which you can see what's beneath you. If you know me well, you know my fear of heights. As if going up is not bad enough, going down was trouble I got leg cramps just staring down the steps. Hugged the pillar trying to place my first foot on the step, and was laughed by a passerby. GAHHH! Screw you people!!!!

Managed to get down safely, and was in need of the loo, but thought I can tahan all the way back, since it's sooooo inconvenient for me to search for one. Especially when I'm tired and sweaty. Got into the car, and realized, I desperately need the loo! After answering the call of nature, I drove out of the parking lot. Explained to the ticket guy that when I reached, I couldn't get any tickets since he wasn't even (presumably) AWAKE! The automatic ticket machine was apparently asleep too when I arrived so...NO TICKET! How? He bloooooody charged me RM26. For half a day. Screw you ticket man!! But I was too tired to even argue.

The journey home was smooth. Tar powed some yummeh pork noodles, got into my car, and realized...WHERE THE HECK IS THE HOOK TO HANG MY BOILING HOT BAG OF NOODLE SOUP LAHHH!!! Ended up putting it on the passenger seat with me constantly checking to see if it was at an upright position through the corner of my eye. Went home...ahhhhh! Bliss!!! Makaned. Dad was sweet enough to not screw me after a bad day. Even spoke sweetly to me, and let me go out.

Then I got sounded =.= By someone whom I thought should be giving me maximum emotional support after what I've been through. Not going to dwell on this one but...I was disappointed it didn't turn out to be what I hoped it would.

After that, everything seems okay. So far. Just had an awesome dinner with oodles of kangkung belacan! =D And I got the job =.= from that toooting company. And I rejected it =DDDDDDD Ahhhh...Now I"m going to hunt for supper. Baibai!

There better be a good ending for today...or I'll most probably screw the hell out of you for turning my mood upside down! And ignore you for the rest of my life! Boo you! BYE!

Updates!!!

Been busy running around during work, and exhausted to death after that so I have no time to really blog...nor go out.

Here are some quick updates on what I have been up to since my previous post.

New Year's Eve. This..was how I spent my New Year's Eve. It was awesome!! =D Great company, awesome place, and a wonderful view of the fireworks. Missing one person who happens to be clubbing somewhere in Aussie though =p

The very next outing was on...15th of January I think. FHM GND's finals at MOS. Went to support Yvonne Sim =D She was superbly awesome, almost the entire audience was supporting her! Congrats once again for winning the GND title! I can't wait for FHM March's issue.

Taken at Kim Gary after GND was announced. Heavily photoshopped around the eyes! xD

The week after that, Mel announced that she's got her Visa settled, and will be flying back to UK the very next week. *slaps her* We hardly hanged out girl!! So, on one fateful night, *I* drove *cough* to Mel's place for some berbonding session. This...is what we did after that:

Gatal wanna take a jumping shot. Failed loads of times though. But pretty fun! The entire carpark was ours to vandalize with our crazy acts and screams.

Individual shot. =) I love this shot.

And...the latest update is...

I curled my hair =X

=D And as outdated as I am...I am currently addicted to those type of headbands.

Jade

It's about time I show you my birthday present from my besties =D

I got her about a week before my birthday, and this little dear was just 7 weeks old. My oh my, she has grown A LOT since then. And very cheeky too!

She chews shoes...but apparently, only my mum's. HAHAHAHA! Must be because she hasn't been giving much love to Jade =p =p BWAHAHHAAH! She never chews mine awwwwwwwwwwwww <3 And never my maid's one (because Jade's scared of her =X)

Here are a few recent pictures of her (note to Nick: i'm blogging in present tense yawww...i took the pictures today ok!!! xP)

Sniffing her treats. Okay, here's what happen. Jade's a hyperactive dog. SUPERBLY ACTIVE! Taking pictures of her is always a challenge to me. So, in order to quieten her down, I gave her treats. Basically, I tore a huge piece, tore a smaller piece to feed her and left the balance of the treats on my lap as I fumble with my camera. That cheeky little cutie grabbed that HUUUUUGE piece on my lap as fast as lightning and ran under my dad's car. W-O-N-D-E-R-F-U-L!!!

Trying to eat that tough piece of dog treat. She's teething...so it's hard for her to chew. GAHAHAHA! Serves her right =p

Huge ain't she?

The thing is...she knows that she has to be a good girl and go inside the cage whenever she gets her treats. Awwww...I never forced her in (my maid has the honor of doing that) but thankfully Jade learns It makes things easier in the future ;)

SHE IS FAT RIGHT?
