i feel that most of my posts are very superficial and generic. but really, i don't wanna be spilling my heart out on a public internet site. so, superficial i will continue to be. if you really care for something deeper, email, IM, skype, call...or...VISIT!!!! :)
it's pouring outside. i hear thunder and see lightening literally every 5 minutes. it's been raining everyday for over a month now. blech. i hate rain. but luckily, it doesn't rain ALL day long, just for a few hours and through most of the night (of crazy heavy rain). i guess that's what they call tropical rain. doesn't mean i have to like it though. plus, the humidity really sucks, and it's not even at it's worse yet. yay. =/
but the more interesting part of my blog...ANOTHER kid pulled out his weiner in class today. what the heck is wrong with these hong kong kids?!?!? this is actually the 3rd time it's happened to me (not including the time a kid grabbed his weiner from outside his shorts and pretended to squirt me with it). i don't get it. i don't remember this kind of stuff EVER happening when i was a kid. then again, i wasn't a boy...maybe all of you boys did it at one point or another and are just keeping it to yourselves. this time, i yelled at the kid and it was promptly put away before anyone else saw.
...on a side note...all 3 of these kids...i'm pretty sure they weren't circumsized (i can't be sure because i didn't bother to stare, but my glimpses told me something didn't look quite right). i wonder if that's the norm in hk. anyway...

i'm getting jaded by hk. this has happened a long time ago...but i just decided to blog about it today.
these days, if a chick isn't twig thin, as in her thigh is bigger than my wrist, i find myself thinking she's a bit chubby. it's horrible. i even look at stick thin actresses and models and think that they could afford to lose a few pounds.
this also means that in my book, i'm obese :) i'm way more self conscious out here about my weight than i ever was back home. the bad thing is, i also find it harder to lose weight out here. 1.) there's so much good yummy food that's so super convenient and some of it is really cheap too. 2.) i don't do as many outdoor activities here because of the lack of space, resources, inconvenience, and crappy weather (either too cold or super humid, hot, and/or rainy). 3.) i find it more difficult to go to the gym because i have to walk there (in the crappy weather) plus working out here isn't as fun as the boxing that i used to do (though i could join a boxing gym here, but it'd be for about $120 a month which doesn't feel worth it, esp since i still gotta walk there).
yup, so i think i'm gonna stay obese until i return...THEN work on getting rid of the chubs. and maybe i'll get a more realistic take on what a healthy girl looks like again too.

i got my eyelashes permed!!! (well, at least the few that i have). i bet a good chunk of you out there didn't know you could even do that! it's not that popular in the us because white people have naturally curly eyelashes (lucky duckys). anyway, i'm loving them. they also suckered me into buying this mascara type stuff that's supposed to make my pathetic few eyelashes grew fuller and longer. we'll see if it works. i've got my ruler ready to measure!
i also got stuck with food poisoning this weekend. how sucky is that?! got it saturday morning (at least i went out and had fun on friday). it kept me homebound for 4 days =/ and it was a long weekend too. what a waste! o well. we've got LOTSA long weekends coming up. i love how there are sooo many public holidays out here. we end up celebrating a lotta western and eastern holidays, the best of both worlds, yay!
