*Thoughts*...
Gosh. I got outta bed at 4:00pm this afternoon. Yikes... I'm definitely getting old.
Anyways. I was looking at my stats page for this site, and someone found my site by searching Google for (get this): "Aubergines procrastinate". What the??!?!??
I finally watched "Shallow Hal" this afternoon. The movie really isn't that great and some of it was pretty bad. Despite this though, the content of the movie actually hit a sore spot in me.
I've always been incredibly sensitive about weight and appearance issues. I grew up being "bigger" than other kids. People always commented on my "baby fat" and my belly. I know now that I'm "normal" sized and healthy, but whenever I'm back in HK, I'm reminded that I'm not a stick - which makes me abnormal.
I've come to realise that I'll never be fully comfortable with my body, especially when people whose opinions have mattered (at one point or another) have made comments about my weight. But I'll never change my appearance anyone but myself. And I stand by that conviction. I've noticed more and more though, that people judge me by my appearance too readily. I don't like it, and it really annoys me. Grrr...
Anyways... I'm listening to Sarah McLachlan's new CD "Afterglow". Yeah, it sounds just like all her other CDs, but that's what I love about her, and her new songs are just as soothing as her old stuff. I love it!
Right... Going to watch SNL and read a little more, before I crash and go to work at the NY Marathon tomorrow morning. I'm NOT running the marathon (DUH!)... I signed on to be an Interpreter for the day. Gives me a chance to practice my French and Chinese...
Ciao, my daaaah-lings. Ooooh... If you want to see a picture of me in drag... email me and I'll send you a shot! *smooch*~
