Living Life to the Max

I'm feeling philosophical so shut it. Sunday, May 30, 2010

Why hello world.

It's been ages since anyone posted anything on this blog. So I won't be surprised if noone ever checks here again but heck.

Uni life is..hectic. That is to put it mildly. Studying just saps the life out of you. Like today, I felt so frustrated just sitting there and staring at my notes.

Anyway, on to more "deep" issues.

Dieting. I know, who cares if you look fat right? But that's the thing. People DO care. I mean, I have guy friends who go around asking, why do you even diet? Think about it dudes. Given a choice of a chubby/fat girl or a relatively skinny girl, which one would you more likely give a damn about?
Females diet because it's been ingrained into our minds that we have to look thin, to look hot, to look size 2. Even if we are totally comfortable with our bodies, we still feel the need to stay slim. I mean, if guys hadn't shown their preferences to slim women, we wouldn't even have bothered. (Let's leave the health issue out of this for now? :) ) Now IF men had preferred chubby women then all of us wouldn't have needed to think about staying slim, right? Wouldn't that be just awesome to be able to down all those lovely calories?

But anyway, luckily for us girls, we have begun to take a stand in this whole image issue. Now, we have our own demands too. Haha..guys must have relatively buff fit bodies..etc., hey, the list goes on for them too.

Well, it's a materialistic, shallow world we live in and who do we blame for this but ourselves?
After all, we're the ones who set the standards and the markers.
And I'm not complaining, I have no reason to. I'm just stating it like it is.
