Now you know...

I know it sounds silly but, having happy thought such as thinking "what's for breakfast later?" while I drive to work is how I kick start my day. (Does it explain to you why I'm tad overweight now?) I'm a morning person. Prefer dawn rather than sun set because it feels like a brand new start with full of surprises ahead.

And I have super best colleagues. Colleagues who can cook so well and colleagues who can't cook but are generous enough to belanja.

I had stop buying food from the canteen because my mum is now preparing breakfast for me to bring to school... (like a school kid) knowing that I'm saving. And on random days, my colleagues will suddenly brought along large food containers and made us all starve like hungry ghost waiting for the dapur makciks to bring the plates and spoons.

Today, was just too exaggerating...


Just you look at the amount of food!!!




Maybe because it was just right after pay-day, I have different colleagues bringing different foods to school today. Not janji one okay!

As you can see, we had:

  • Laksa
  • Begedil
  • Sour mango?
  • Kuihs and Cakes

and...




Why 4 bags? Because one colleague bought two.. and the other one bought another two without knowing what will happen today...

Kweng Kweng Kweng!


And today one of my beeyoches bought us packet food too.
(Us, which means only for certain people..)


So summing up, today I had...




Gila or not you say!

I only manage to finish the laksa, then half of mum's porridge and heat up the fried noodle justnow for lunch.

Now you know... why most some teachers tend to be slightly overweight.
I've heard even kua-chiong (lebih) stories for some other schools. Everyday "party" - makan like that in staffroom.

I heart my school, and my colleagues.

that's really nice you now? free food. free. lol. being greedy. free!!!

but well, variety is the spice of life and you get a big range of food to choose for lunch. compare that with schools with lousy canteens and most people eat one food almost every lunch. so eat more is healthy. well, just exercise a bit more to make up loh.

I don't have nice colleagues like yours but I have a few kaki for morning breakfast. We will drive to the nearest food stalls to take our morning break. Going out from school for a few minutes is so really destress but nevertheless, I keep on putting more weight.
