Girls Rule

 Earlier today I was thinking about the thousands of girls who post videos on youtube reviewing makeup and talking about their trips abroad their pets, new products and how no girl has ever once done it just to impress guys.

Literally that whole community exists just for girls because it’s something that so many of us enjoy and yet men still think that we wear makeup for them!

I love cereals !

I still love my cereals...sob... !!!!

I do ! It's one of those food that I could literally eat for lunch & dinner & they have so much favours & nuts & honey..... I always thought they are healthy, ok they could be sweet but still healthy right? NO ......

Many popular breakfast cereals are marked as healthy day start & marketed towards children. They have signs like 'whole grain' & 'low fat'. Lately a friend taught me how to really read the ingredients as she was shocked by the amount of cereals I take...lol.... Well to cut the story short, apparently the list of ingredients shows that there's lots of sugar ...., refined grains & artificial chemicals. So when it's prints say it's healthy, it's probably NOT!

Fat kids . Why are kids getting fatter?

Happy New Year Everyone.

My aunt (mum’s sister) brought her granddaughter over to our place yesterday (she was baby sitting her, while her daughter ,that’s my cousin went on vacation with her husband ! Boy… that’s a mouthful …hee.  Anyway I was very surprise , all of us were, the kid has grown, like twice the original size ! Very chubby …., call me rude but I couldn’t help staring, & pinching her cheeks  !!



Don't you want to pinch these cheeks :))

Why are kids getting fatter? I remember I was so skinny as a kid because I play sports in school. These days we have Video games, TV, the internet and fast food ,all are partly to blame. Kids are spending more time sitting in front of a TV/computer screen than running around outside. This sedentary lifestyle has consequences. Plus parents are richer & likely to subject their kids to experience more exotic food as ‘exposure’.

Socially, it’s no secret that overweight kids are going to be subject to ridicule from their peers – it’s sad, but nevertheless true. This can result in such issues as low self-esteem, depression, etc. Then there are the health concerns. High blood pressure, diabetes and other maladies that is associated with obesity. Psychologically and physically, obesity is an issue that can be resolved with a simple increase in activity and awareness.

The most annoying office jargon

Had another "kickstart" meetings with Dr Evil , (my uncle) this morning. This time his finger quotes went into overdrive. Apparently our accounts has been showing that we are "on the runway" still "going forward " we need to "take it to the next level" ! If he doesn't stop using all these buzzwords soon ,he'll give all of us ear injury. He said he like us to "think outside the box", to "reach out" to more of our clients- then he ended it by "lets action that!"- ! I drifted off about 5 mins into his bullshit!

Uncle like to use the phrase "what I like to call" so much that he even started saying it before perfectly normal words like 'results'. When he's home he probably asks his maid for 'what I like to call a cup of tea with what I like to call 2 sugars.'

A day in the office :meetings with Dr Evil

My uncle called for a "kick-start" meeting this morning. Yes both he & me, worked for my dad, but since he is technically older, he's like my manager. Also I only there on partime as I'm still in school. Anyway every time he said kickstart, he did an inverted quotes mime with his fingers , as if the meeting wasn't really called this at all. The action drives me nuts - reminds me of Dr Evil from Austin Powers .....lol... It's basically a pep talk  about how we should all work harder and make more money for my dad & him (my dad gives him generous bonus )

Kim the office bootlicker whooped at the end of every sentence (it's so odd, who does that ?).  I seriously wanted to start kicking her. Maybe that's where the name comes from. Also it's obvious she has a crush on my uncle. He announced that we might have a brand new order from a brand new client. I immediately started thinking of excuses why I couldn't work on it. Then he thank Kim for agreeing to do the leg work. Then I remember my dad saying something about my bonus, so I too became very interested in this new account.

My uncle was overjoyed when I volunteered to work on this & said he was glad that his "kickstart " meetings were already having an effect .
And yes, he did the finger thing again ...omg...

Negative Thinking & hunger

In 3 days time, it's Christmas & then end of the year 2014. Time to reflect on my resolution to be happy & positive all the time.

I don't seem to be doing all that well. Besides me being able to keep slim which makes me very happy, then I remember all the good food I missed out on during gatherings & especially festive celebrations like Christmas or CNY - I got a little sad. Overall I would say I was not a 100%  totally happy & positive for the entire year. What if I'll never get to eat good food again just to stay slim?  Think of all the things I'll missed ! Bak Kwa, fruit cakes, pineapple tarts, love letters, chocolates& more....

Love the crispy & fat ones !!!

But is staying positive all that important though? After all ,if the Greeks & Romans had sat around grinning all day, would they have bothered inventing civilization?

 Maybe negative thinking & regrets is the driving force behind all culture ! By demonizing pessimism , could we be forcing ourselves into irreversible decline ? Just thinking out loud- maybe hunger makes a person cranky ...lol...
