Have I ever mentioned that I love working at NTUC income? No? Well, apart from the boring-ness of the job, which come to think of it, most deskbound jobs are, I love it. Apart from the super good pay, the slackness of the job(which suits me perfectly), the friendly colleagues,the close proximity to town, there is also always food in the office. For example, today,I was sent by my supervisor to go to another department to take a cake,an icecream cake that they could not finish, and it was a haagen-daz ice-cream cake no less...muahah. What kind of weirdos can't finish haagen daz ice-cream cakes, I ask you? But oh well, all the better for me. I mean us...So there I was, having perked up from my previous lethargic state, cutting and giving out the cakes and of course, I get special priviledges like strawberry..hehe..it was macademia nut flavour,one of my favourite, yummmmmmyy....

I am also drinking more coffee than I should, excuse being to keep me awake at work. Being the food snob that I am, I have my own coffee at work, turning up my nose at the Nescafe Instant which I feel gives a bitter aftertaste and doesnt have the aroma I like. Speaking of aromatic coffee, I miss boaters coffee. I know most ppl would be like,huh, si-me boaters. Go check out the website now www.boaters.co.uk, I love the hazelnut and the vanilla nut flavoured ones, but unfortuntately, I can't find them anywhere around nowadays. Other than my coffee, my drawer is also filled with biscuits and snacks and sweets to satiate my hunger when my stomach goes a-growling at around 11am and 4pm everyday...hahah, works like clockwork. I cant function when I am hungry, I can't tolerate the feeling of hunger. Thats why it completely baffles me that people can go for a whole morning and afternoon without eating.

Oh, and it just occured to me today, looking at the people in my office, that married women grow fatter. Its true, oh gosh. Last dec, when I worked there, there were quite a few of them who had just married, or were going to get married soon, and now within 5 months, after being presumably happily married,they have grown in size too, and let themselves go. And its particularly scary cos there was this colleage who was preparing for her wedding last dec, and everyday for lunch, she would just eat apples, thus she was pretty slim. And now, ba-boom, her girth has increased so much. I swear, I am never going to let myself go, even after marriage, even after giving birth. I know they say looks and sizes are not impt, err inner beauty is more impt blah blah blah, but I think its a whole lot of crap. Men, touch your heart and say you don't prefer women who have good figures.

Oh well, this is a long and highly debatable topic, I shall leave it for now....ciao
