SKINNY RULEZ

I hate to say this.

But skinny DOES rule the world.

Just look at America's Next Top Model. And what do you see? SKINNY girls. Sure there are some PLUS size models. BUT THEY NEVER WIN (yet). And these fatties are always looking at all those stick-thin girls and thinking to themselves, "shit i wish my body was like that". These skinny girls hardly have any boobs. They have bony shoulders. Ultra-flat tummies. And they have twiggy arms.

Actresses & models whom you think are NORMAL size, were asked by producers & managers to LOSE WEIGHT to the point of anorexic before they will be put on a show.

In one reality TV on recruiting models, one of the judges said, "she makes cheap clothes look like Versace becuz she's so skinny". And the judge went on to comment on another girl, "she needs to lose weight becuz she makes the clothes look frumpy".



So I wonder, why am I being picked on for being skinny?

This 200-pound girl (seriously damn fat) actually put her puffy hand on my shoulder and said that I am 'really damn skinny'. And I'm thinking to myself, "and you are really damn fat". This girl even has problems getting back on her feet from a squatting position. Fark this shit, man. Just becuz I can squat and stand easily doesn't give you the right to comment on MY model-like body type (p.s: pls see above on America's Next Top Model).

And this short girl with tree trunk legs said that my arms look like it can be snapped like a twig. What the... *toot*. Just becuz I need to use a chainsaw on your legs, doesn't give you the right to comment on my arms (p.s: pls see above regarding skinny girls make cheap clothes look damn bloody expensive).

The thing is that I have NEVER EVER commented on anyone's fatty'ness. Simply becuz... it's RUDE. So what makes these ppl think that they can just freely insult another person on their body?

But of course, when they go overboard with their comments, I will lash out a few insults on my own and eventually make them cry. Either that, or I'll go crying to my closest friends and gossip about the person who insulted me and hurt my feelings and make me feel lowly about myself.



I admit. I'm no angel. I can be extremely mean with my words, but I choose not to use this bitch power which I naturally possess.

Sometimes, I try to convince myself that ppl make skinny jokes about me becuz they themselves feel low self-esteem about themselves. And therefore, they have to pick on somebody else which they WISH they were, but can never be.

It's like, I always wanted big boobs. So when I see Tyra Banks and her fleshy chest, I will tell Tyra that her boobs will droop down to her pussy when she's older becuz her breasts are so big. (Red Alert: too much envy will turn into pure evil jealousy).

So I tell myself that ppl tell me that I'm so skinny is becuz they are jealous that I don't have unwanted fats on my body and skinny ppl can carry off clothes better.

But at times, how to convince myself this if they KEEP commenting?? HUH?! YOU TELL ME LAH??? HOW TO??? Obviously I will get angry, right? knn... ccb...


Anywayz...

I'm having PMS... even when it's not time for PMS.

Word of Advice - to the Working World

The saying is true.

It is indeed a dog eat dog world.

Every man for himself.


But there is another saying.

Do unto others like how you want others to do unto you.


In the beginning, my workplace started out to be a MOSTLY pleasant environment to work in. However, recently, it started to become MOSTLY unpleasant.

I think it is due to the fact that there are more & more workload + job frustrations. And also, maybe the GM has been a little too hard on his managers.

Thus, the managers started to vent their frustrations on the executives and the executives vent their frustrations on the lower level staffs. And since the lower level staffs do not have anyone lower to vent on, they vent on each other who are on the same level.

It's a vicious chain reaction.

There are lesser patience. Lesser tolerance. Increased workload. Increased frustrations. And an increase in unhappy employees.

All these for higher profit. More bonus.


Many times, we get scolded for nothing.

Instructions were not passed down properly. And when you take the initiative to go and clarify for more information, you get scolding becuz your superior thinks that you're dumb or not paying careful attention to her when she's talking.



Bottom Line:

As hard as the working environment can be, we must always take conscious effort not to be consumed by it.

Just becuz other ppl treat you like a worthless piece of crap, does not mean that you have to be consumed that attitude and pass that attitude onto another person.



Mental Note to self:

Be cool. Be calm. Be tolerant. Be patient.

A Really Cool Story

Firstly, I want to start off by saying... I DETEST CHINA PEOPLE.

This is becuz:

(a) China ppl are so determined to find a Singaporean to marry - i don't even need to explain this point becuz everyone already knows this.


(b) China men are so full of complains - i work with china male workers and they seem to really really complain. A LOT. And the way they complain is as if WE SINGAPOREANS have FORCED them to look for WORK HERE IN SINGAPORE. Excuse me? Did WE SINGAPOREANS put a knife to your throat and drag you by the balls to work like slaves here? No. YOU WERE WILLING. So shut the fark up and accept the fact that you drive a forklift and do manual labor. If you were smarter, you would have been in IT Consulting.


(c) China women only know how to prostitute themselves. I hate prostitutes. I dun know why. I just feel that they make this whole world so dirty - i know i know, if there are no prostitutes, there will be a lot more rape cases in the world. Whatever. I know hookers are for men who cant get girls. But the fact that there ARE hookers around, normal men will just try them out of curiousity.


(d) China women agressively seduce Singaporean men becuz of point (a) - damn sluts. If the law was in my hands, I'll lock all the hookers / nightclub prostitutes / China women in a cage and squirt kerosene on them and set them on fire. And if rape cases go up becuz there are no more cheap sluts, I'll gather the rapists and put them in a cage and squirt kerosene on them and set them on fire. After this cruel but justice act, I'm sure the world will be a cleaner and more lawful place.






Ok. Now let me tell you a cool story:


Imagine Fat Bastard from Austin Powers.


Fat Bastard can't get a girl due to the fact that he is fat & ugly.

Sweaty. Hairy. Lack of social skills. Has fatty BO.

Fat Bastard cannot stand the fact that he is still a virgin at 25. Plus his balls are really turning blue. He cannot masturbate recently becuz he had wanked off so much that his lan jiao skin has exfoliated badly and started to feel really tender and sore. Besides, his mother has found all his XXX-DVDs and has kept it for herself.


Therefore, feeling sorry for himself, he decided to try out prostitution.


1st time - "cannot believe i am having sex" - loser

2nd time - "cannot wait to come back again"

3rd to 8th times - "die... addicted liao..."

9th to uncountable times - "i know why i'm addicted liao. These hookers make me feel like I'm so wanted and desired by them" - yeah right, becuz you are their source of income wat... loser...



Unknown to Fat Bastard, he had already contracted some itchy, rotting sexual disease.

And since no horny fat ugly bastard will go to the same hooker, about 20 other hookers have contracted the same itchy, rotting sexual disease from Fat Bastard.


Then here comes Jay Chou. A nice young man. Not so handsome, but still attractive to the female population. He had a gf, but they broke up a few months ago. And recently, he has been feeling a little too horny for his own good and masturbation is not as good as the real thing.


Jay Chou has a group of army buddies who hang out together on weekends. They introduced the world of Geylang night activities to Jay Chou... drinking... nightclubs... women who are so willing to let you touch all over... women who make you feel so loved and desired. Suddenly, Jay Chou feels so popular and well-liked. Plus he can touch different girls almost ever night. It feels like eating from a different patch of grass each time.

Jay Chou thought, "wahhh... the girls there really have such nice smooth touchable bodies. I remember my ex-gf Jolin had big boobs too... SHIOK AH. I am in Men's Heaven."



A few years later, Jay Chou found a really really nice sweet loving gf. He really loves her a lot. They plan to get married and have a happy family with 2 kids.


However, one day, his gf fell ill. The doctors then said that she had contracted AIDS + Herpes. And upon tracing further, it was from Jay Chou.

Jay Chou thought, "no wonder my lan jiao so itchy and red... and sometimes, it smells so bad... i thought it was just sweat".



...Flashback to few years ago...

There was a prostitute called Puah Chi By, who had contracted AIDS from one of her customers called Phua Chu Kang.

One night, a guy called Fat Bastard came to pay her for sex. Puah Chi By could tell that he was still a virgin becuz he couldn't even find her pussy... ... even though it was so damn big and loose and smelly.


Fat Bastard then proceeded to sleep with other prostitutes.

One of those cheap sluts was called Chao Hai, who had really smooth skin with big boobs and an angel face. She was so pretty and sexy that Fat Bastard went back to play with her a lot more times.


One rainy stormy night, Fat Bastard looked for Chao Hai again. After he was done with her, Chao Hai cursed and sweared at her bad luck, "ka ni na... why must always kenna this kind of smelly fat pig leh??? Before this stupid fatty come in, I got to service this old wrinkled man with extreme body odor who lick me all over with his smelly saliva. ka ni na... got gum disease one is it."

To her surprise, her next customer was so cute and young. Unbelievable. So seldom got such a nice looking guy come for paid sex. Must be just broke up with gf, so must be feeling horny lah.

... Back to Present...

So that's how Jay Chou contracted AIDS.

And how he passed it on to his one true love. His gf got super furious at him. Then she committed suicide by slicing her wrists becuz there is nothing worth living for anymore.

Jay Chou bang balls. Becuz he is farked for life. He knows he cannot find another sweet loving gf. His future is gone. He was supposed to go to Taiwan to be a famous singer, but now he can't.

Since he can't do anything useful in life, he continues to go for prostitution becuz that's the only way he can satisfy himself until the day he dies from the sexual disease.

And in the world of prostitution, he meets a regular customer called Phua Chu Kang. After chatting, Phua Chu Kang told Jay Chou that he was doing parquet flooring and he was supposed to be the best in Singapore & JB and some say, Batam. However, along the road of his success, 'SOMETHING HAPPENED' and PCK had to give up his parquet flooring dream.

Hearing this, Jay Chow felt that they have so much in common.

And they become good friends who hang out together at nightclubs with women who desire them so much.

New Year's Day & SPCA

I was out on the eve, celebrating with my bf and his friends.

We watched I AM LEGEND, starring Will Smith. Then we went counting down the new year somewhere in Tanjong Pagar, but not being able to see the fireworks, we blasted the 91.3 on the car stereo.

Wat a typical way to say goodbye to the passing year & in welcoming 2008.



Yet, the 1st big thing which I did on New Year's Day was to call the SPCA, reporting the abuse of a harmless rabbit in Woodlands Circle.

Gina has already blogged about it. So click HERE to read it.

In summary:

The rabbit was put in a cage and left OUTSIDE the house. From what I understand, it could NOT stand. And when my brother & his gf put some food in front of the rabbit, it 'leopard crawled' to the food and ate like it had been starving. And according to his gf, the rabbit was still hopping around in the cage when she saw it the previous day.

After hearing this, I felt so much pity for the rabbit.

HOW COULD ANYONE ACTUALLY BREAK THE RABBIT'S LEGS????

My brother got the address of the owner from his gf. And I called SPCA to report this incident. The guy at SPCA told me that he will send someone over to pick it up.

Impt Note: I called SPCA at around 1.45am on 01/01/2008. Yes. They ARE open 24hrs. And they ARE efficient in answering calls involving animal abuse, distress, injury, illness, etc. The number to call is 6287 5355. So DO NOT wait till 'office hours' before calling them for help, as it might already been too late.



I couldn't really sleep well the whole night. And the minute I woke up, I called SPCA again to check up on the rabbit.

This lady called Anna, was very polite and helpful. She tried to find out more information on the poor little harmless rabbit.

However, she told me that the rabbit was NOT abused.

... i know... i was like, 'huh???'...


She told me that the rabbit belonged to someone. And that the owner told SPCA that the rabbit was NOT abused. It was just born with deformed legs.

... wtf, right???...


This Anna from SPCA then told me to get my brother's gf to call her to reconfirm if the rabbit's condition had gotten worse or something. I had told my brother to tell his gf about it. But I don't know what was the outcome. Maybe they were afraid of getting into trouble with the owner or something.



Ok. I wasn't embarrassed becuz I had accidentally reported a misunderstood abuse.

But the problem was... ... ... I was DAMN confused and unconvinced.



Firstly, my brother's gf said tat she saw that the rabbit was able to hop around in its cage just the previous day. So how can the rabbit be lying flat on its stomach now? How come the rabbit showed that it was STARVING when they tried to feed it some food??? I don't believe that my brother's gf was lying about it becuz why would anyone lie about something like that. So it only means that:

(1) She didn't manage to take a closer look at the rabbit the previous day & thought that it was ok. - genuine mistake...

(2) The rabbit suddenly became worse in its handicapped condition. - farked up owner did not take care of it properly...

(3) The rabbit HAD BEEN abused. The owner tried to cover it up by saying that it had deformed legs. - if this is the case, i hope the owner is cursed to eternal hell...



Secondly, if the owner was SO KIND to still take care of the deformed rabbit (despite its handicap), then WHY DID THE OWNER LEAVE THE RABBIT OUTSIDE THE HOUSE???

Aren't they afraid that crazy ppl who walked past their house would torture the innocent rabbit? Even if the probability of crazy ppl is low, but haven't they thought of the ever-changing weather? The rabbit would be cold from strong winds... it could be wet from the rain that splatters into the exposed corridors. And rabbits are very very timid creatures (trust me, i know becuz i have a rabbit too). The rabbit could get scared or shocked constantly with the sudden noises in its surroundings. And ppl who walk past might disturb the rabbit. Children might poke at it. The rabbit is so vulnerable when the owner keeps it outdoors like this!



Lastly, just being CURIOUS. Did the ppl from SPCA actually inspect the rabbit? Did it really have deformed legs? And if it DID HAVE deformed legs, then did they look around its living quarters & surroundings to see if it was suitable?? Should a pet be left outside the house?? Was food & water conveniently placed, so that the rabbit will have no trouble in reaching its food / water??

I mean, for god's sake, if you had nonfunctional limbs, I'm sure you would like to be able to reach your food without leopard-crawling your way across the room, right??? As a human, you have ppl who look after your needs. But this rabbit lives in the corridor! So what if it lives in a tiny cage??? Its BUTT was FACING TOWARDS its FOOD BOWL. So this means that the poor rabbit with DEFORMED LEGS had to somehow twist & turn around 180 degrees to be able to EAT. No wonder it ate like it was STARVING when my brother & his gf put some food in front of its mouth.



To me, it's still cruelty.

The owner could have put the rabbit INSIDE the house.



But still, I guess the impt message to be put across here is that pets are living things too. Irregardless whether they have deformities or not. I know the owner thought that he was being nice in keeping it. But personally, I do not think that keeping a deformed rabbit OUTSIDE the house is appropriate.

And also, I hope that everyone out there is aware that SPCA is 24 hours. Just becuz it's a holiday, or it's late at night... ... doesn't mean that they heck care if animals are sick or being abused.

You might not be sure if the animal is being abused, but as long as you have a doubt about it, I believe it is our responsibility to report it. It is better to be careful, rather than let it happen, then you report. By then, it might already been too late.



You know, this is like one of those Preventing Terrorists Attacks advertisements that you see in MRTs and bus interchanges.

"See something suspicious?

(picture of a lonely bag lying on the seat / picture of rabbit with twisted legs in a cage in an open corridor)

Report it."
