| 1:36 PM I worked at a warehouse sale yesterday, one which our retail arm was organising. The good points - some of the store's part-time staff I was one of them, as in close enough to them in age to pass off as one of them. See, one of the girls there thought I was 18. Guess I should be flattered. The not so good bit - I was down for a 12-hour shift, mainly replenishing depleted stocks and dealing with customer queries on the floor of the exhibition hall. After a while my feet started to ache. I would imagine being on your feet for 12 hours would be hard on anyone who doesn't do it on a regular basis, but still I had to listen to the exhortations of a colleague to lose weight. Maybe I was tired and grumpy, or she was really hitting a nerve, but I thought the last time I wanted to be reminded about my excess weight and lifelong struggle with it would be during a moment which I was feeling every single excess gram of it. Ugh. I still have yet to figure out where and when I can take regular walks in my new neighbourhood. We're that close to the industrial hub of the island, it's practically across the road. Between the smoke from the large vehicles and the odours emitted by the factories, I feel dispirited while walking there. Maybe I'm just creating excuses for myself. The latest "weight-loss aid" my mom foisted off on me? Some cellullite gel. Now I'm convinced these things don't work, but I've been using them on my legs and I feel that the gel does help reduce quite a bit of water retention that I've been having, especially when I'm having PMS. I guess the rest of the cellullite will have to come off on my sheer hard work. Dispirited is a good way to describe what I'm feeling like right now. -
