so in the Life! section of The Straits Times today, they talked about skinny celebrities and how women today are so obsessed with being thin. so i've got 5 good reasons why being thin is an advantage:

1. shopping will be so much easier cos the shop will definitely have your size.
2. it feels better to call for size 0 instead of size 8.
3. you wouldn't look pregnant in an empire cut dress.
4. you can say 'im so fat' and your friends can reply 'no, you're not', and mean it.
5. you can order lots of things at a restaurant and the waiter wouldnt look at you and picture you as a cow.

and now for the 5 disadvantages i face for not being thin:

1. i'll be really lucky if i can fit into those 'free-size' shirts from bangkok(who the hell created this stupid size anyway? just go and DIE!)
2. i dont call for the size, i go to the rack and dig it out myself.
3. my mom thinks i look pregnant in my babydoll dress.
4. i always say that im fat and i think my friends are used to it. though lye urn always agrees with an affirmative 'ya lor'.
5. shah, jaime and lye already think im a cow. they call me 'beef'.

so after reading that article and thinking about it all, i figured that if i ever become thin, i might as well be dead. the point is, you'll never see me stick thin. i love myself too much, thanks.
