A huge chapter of my life...
I've always felt like a blob. And here's why.
And the fact that I wasn't and still am not much of a sports person, didn't help. (I'd still prefer a board game or catching up with friends or reading than playing a SPORT). So it started off and eventually led to this:
It still is a huge part of my life. Quite a few people who cross paths with me can't really go without saying the above. The snide smiles, smirks and comments... well let's just say they're passe. I think I've maxed out!
But today, after lots of self-work (emotionally, mentally, and yes physically as well), I can say that I don't really feel like a blob anymore. Maybe it's because I've fed myself oodles of self-confidence and huge amounts of positive self-regard (thanks to my academics, ranks, awards and gold-frikkin medal apart from various other things!). Or maybe it's just because I don't care as much as I used to. No wait, I do care as much. Or it's just that I rock in general!
I think what matters now is the end result! And no, I haven't suddenly transformed into this woman-of-your-dreams person and perhaps never will. But here's what I feel today.
To the people who've made me feel like a blob, I know it's my problem but here's something I'd like to say to close this chapter:
SCREW YOU!
And that is how it's done! ;)

ReplyDeleteBlob is what I feel at times too - but I guess those who crib about our weight are just envious of/about it :D
Let's see who does better in life some years down the line - we can only weight and watch ;)
Haha... I love your writing. I wish I'd seen this earlier.
ReplyDeleteFrom one "blob" to a smaller "blob," Lauw, you are so beautiful, inside and out. You said it right, screw them all. :)
Lauwly! We're all damn crazy beautiful! even in our mad demented ways!
