Random Rantings

Alright folks, another update! Haha. I was very plagued by many many thoughts, and no one to convey it to. So here goes:

How does one differentiate a fat lady from a pregnant lady (who happens to look chubby)? I keep having this problem on the train. From my eye level (sitting down) I see a bulge, pudgy limbs and I associate that with being plump. But some people will shoot me dirty looks because they being ALL-KNOWING can immediately tell the difference between pregnant and plain fat. Being anti-social, it's not a habit of mine to look at other people's faces (also have a paranoia that when I look at someone they can tell and will stare back at me, thus creating an "awkward" moment for me) I also didn't exactly realise that one you're pregnant, your limbs may expand (very unfortunate, and I think I might be one of them too), cos the pregnant women I see maintain sleek figures (like my Geog teacher, my lady boss, my aunt...) *sigh* the dilemma. Anyway, if THEY can identify preggie women, why dont THEY give up their seats? Silly right?

Coffee does bad things to my skin. I've got 3 students and colleagues telling me I look like ghost/haggard/sick/pale. Notice it's happening in the work area. No one notices my sickly complexion otherwise. Thus I conclude: Work makes me look like shit.

My spending power is considerably reduced. Not cos no bonus or pay reduce or anything drastic. I'm counting my blessings that I am working, have decent pay in this indecent times. Just that prices of decent education, cost of living became indecently high, everything I wanna do must think twice. Can't even have cake anytime I want now.

My lady boss told me "The younger generation students are becoming more vocal in their appeals (& complains)" I think she forgot to mention they became more spineless and dependent too. *tsk tsk* I pity the future... Maybe we'll be living in a robot era, where the younger generations lie in automated massage beds to remain svelte looking instead or walking their butts off doing decent work. What kind of world do I live in?

I really wanna up my butt off to go study/work in somewhere I like. But yes as some friends delicately put it, working in this environment makes you go soggy. become spineless. Man, who can give up these benefits? Need to rebuild my spine, and part with some of my hard-earn savings already...

I like sweet egg toast. Need to get more cinnamon sugar...

Suikoden Tierkries is a good RPG (with very bad dubbing and subbing) but not a goos Suikoden. Maybe cos it's dumbed down for the DS? Not sure. But yea, methinks the gameplay is better than the FFs. But story not there (very simple, and though thre are "mysterious things happening", their revelation is very "Chey..."), army battles not there, the characters I recruited dont feel substantial enough to be in 108 stars (but in S4 there are worse characters...), up til now I dont think there will be any appearances or old Suiko chars... kinda disappointed) . There are good parts tho, like animated cutscenes for important 108 stars, reusing very familiar sound effects, good graphics, some interesting characters. Still can evoke a sense of nostalgia. *spoiler alert* I just don't like how they squeeze all the explanation of the Suiko world into "an infinite number of worlds". I prefer the story of the 27 true runes and the Sword and Shield story thank you very much. I'm doing all I can to stop thinking of improving it (or playing it during work).

I need a holiday, plsthxbye
