‘Holiday’ Plans
Friday, June 2nd, 2006It’s the holidays again, but I don’t really enjoy holidays now. Cos my graduation is nearing and it means that I am going out to work very soon!! *Scream, "Oh no!!!"* Back to the working society … and of course, to the problem of what I want to do when I graduate. This is just one of the things that bug me and drain my energy though, which explains my bad health.
I wish to learn chocolate making this holiday, but first and foremost I gotta work and find the money - $88 for a session from French chef and a box of truffles to take home! Ok. Maybe I’m just after the truffles … Anyway, I am working now, but in exchange for the money, my health has deteriorated and as usual, I lost weight. It is just so amazing how there is still something left of me when I have been losing and rarely gaining weight every semester - so much like the radiation half-life thingy. So you can say that I have a long half-life, hehe. Nowadays I rarely take breakfast, cos I am usually too tired to wake up earlier to eat, and would rather sleep more. My lunch is late and hurried, and I don’t have tea-breaks, which are my sources of weight gain. To make things worse, I caught the flu bug recently, which made my face look pale and gawky. I guess I can now audition for Sadako in the sequel of "The Ring".
As of tonight, I shall revert to a healthy lifestyle - sleep at 11pm and wake up at 6am tomorrow to have breakfast. Down lots of water in office and eat lots of fruits at home! It’s not that I had a very unhealthy lifestyle all this while, but I am the type of person who cannot maintain my healthy habits when I start to get busy. Now that I have adapted to this working schedule, it’s time to steer myself back to good health. Was supposed to go for an ultrasound scan before the exams, but failed to make it for the appointment due to lab report procrastination, sigh … but never would I have known that the next appointment might be sometime after 2 months … cos when I looked at the opening hours for the x-ray centre the other day, they were typical office hours, and when I thought that I could pin my hopes on Sundays, the centre chooses not to have ultrasound service on Sundays, arrrgh … …
Anyway, I guess I should be fine as long as I stay happy and get enough food and sleep. So, ganbarimasu!! As I am typing this sentence, it is already 10.40pm, 20 minutes to my sleeping time. All I need to do before that is to go bathe ~20 min, wash my face ~ 10 min, let my hair air-dry ~ 1 hour, think of what to wear tomorrow ~ 5 min, pack my stuff for tomorrow ~ 15 min …
