This morning i came early to school, at just before nine, only to find a small group of students crowded outside the co-op anxiously waiting for it to open. Even as they were still raising the shutters, this kiasu lot already began to make their way in, all to beat the ubiquitous long lines that are very much the norm nowadays in order to get their books. How do i know all this? Cos i followed right behind them haha...
Anyway, after the long school day (hurray the week is over! Now to try and do all the readings/assorted stuff for this week and next by the time next week comes...) i left a meeting at munchie monkey (the sandwich was nice, but the so-called spicy sausage barely registered the slightest amount of heat on my tongue, even after i soaked the contents of my sandwich with tabasco, albeit the un-hot garlic kind, rather than the original...) in order to rush home and put down my mountain of stuff, before rushing down to Renshao's house for his little birthday thingy...
My stomach never fails to be satisfied whenever i eat his father's cooking... There was such an abundant and wide spread just now - very fresh salmon sashimi, the best soba noodles i've ever eaten (even sans wasabi), a three sausage and pepper cheese platter, salad with a delicious homemade japanese vinaigrette, stuffed prawns (that i of course did not eat...) and lots of other great food... yum...
Well, after that we had a look at some very old photos of us when we all were in Barker choir, and i do mean OLD... I can hardly believe that those photos were taken like seven or eight or so years ago... It was really great to look back at all those photos that we ourselves never had seen before (i also dunno how they suddenly surfaced) from so long ago, and see how we have all changed, or not...
One thing that certainly has changed since then was my weight... I never realised how skinny i actually was back then, and i think that i've put on at least ten kg since those days, five during the ACJC choir tour (where i actually ate fatty breakfasts for two weeks straight), and another five during ns (muscle mass, not fat, hopefully =P).
And yes, this is superficially distressing cos now i may obsess from time to time about how i actually i could afford to lose some weight since i was once this height but 10 kg lighter... Sounds like stuff that i shouldn't be worrying about, i know, blame it on the influence of the vast number of weight concious members of the opposite sex that i constantly am in contact with... Ominous voice booms: YOU KNOW WHO YOU ARE...
