TMI

TMI: too much info

and thats exactly what this post is gonna be about.

i havent been very personal on my blog lately, so... lets get personal!

by personal, it means that im gonna talk about my period and armpit hair and stuff. so if you want to know me, but just not THAT well, then shoo, off you go now :)

you're still here?

ok, im gonna let my incoherent mind loose now.

so where shall i start? oh yes, im having my period now, it started last night after i showered. haha... i made it sound so instantaneous. wtf

anyway, i didnt use to have any period pain when i was younger. i strongly suspect that this was due to the tonnes of exercise i used to have training for sports and during dance classes. and err... also a nightly dosage of primrose oil. but ever since i left home, i've altogether stopped any form of exercise and have also become lazy in taking my vitamins.

as a result, my periods are becoming less and less painless. now, i can actually feel that part of my body which is my uterus. u know why? because i feel like it is being pulled out of my body. ok, that sounds damn painful. the degree of pain is only about a 3, but the sensation does feel that way.

and the worst part of periods -besides the pain, is when you can feel your period just suddenly gushing out. im sure all of you girls have experienced this before. then u wonder, eh, how much exactly came out ar? got stain? did my pad contain it all? (guys, if you're still here, still reading, bravo. wtf) but usually, not much came out, it just FEELS like alot did.

imagine this happening when you're at the till, handling transactions.
"would you like any drinks?"
"would you like to make it a meal deal?"
"that'll be $5.99 sir."
"taking out or eating in?"
"here's your change $4.01, here are some vouchers."
"cheers!"
(all our transactions sound like this. very standard wan. i get so thirsty when i get stuck at the till. have to say this again and again without break.)

plus, if the customer is a regular, then some small talk would ensue.
"just got off work?" "yea, many customers today?"
"not that many, will have to wait till the students come back from their holidays" "oh, it will be very busy then!"
"yup! enjoy your meal!" "cheers!"

imagine doing all that while feeling your period gushing out. wtf
summore cannot change facial expression and must pretend that nothing is happening.

*sigh* the joys of being female -_-"

anyways, i just showered and since it's gonne be Chinese New Year tomorrow ('today' to many of you), i decided to spring clean my body. wtf. i exfoliated both my face and body and would have put a mask in my hair if i had one, but i dont. oh well.

then i came out and slathered night cream on my face and lotion on my body. then i decided to do a complete job and start plucking.

so i lifted my arms to expose very neglected underarms (its winter what! i need all the hair i can get. wtf) and reached deep into the undergrowth and started yanking. note to self: plucking needs to be done weekly. once in 2 weeks at least. not once a month or two. wtf

but it surprisingly didnt take long to achieve smooth hairless armpits again. i think its because i've always plucked and never shaved before, so there's less hair. btw, a shoutout to all u armpit shavers, its bad for you! you should pluck! its not as painful as u think, and shaving makes your armpit look dark, plus there will be more hair and the regrowth is twice (or more) than that of plucking.

after cleaning the tweezers, i decided that i might as well reshape my eyebrows as they are now shapeless bushes. no la, cant be bushes coz i have very little eyebrow hair, but it was shapeless nonetheless :(

*sigh* i like thick eyebrows *wistful*

so now here i am, trying to remember chinese new year traditions. oh ya, i remembered one! dont wash hair the night before CNY! too late -_-"

no wonder im poor every year la! -___-

bernie just told me that im supposed to eat kaya on the 3rd or 4th day. kaya??? how come i never heard of that tradition before??

and we're not supposed to sweep right? no worries here as my floor is carpeted. wtf
but to be safe i wont vacumn this week =p

oh ya, i wanna eat fish and yee sang T.T
hopefully i'll be able to eat it tomorrow :)

you know you're in a foreign land when you ask for a holiday on the 26th (CNY) and your boss asks why. in malaysia, you would have to be deaf and blind not to know the approach of CNY :(

funny joke of the day:
bernie told me that on the 7th day, we're supposed to eat 7 types of vegtables.
when i told jo, she said: but you're only supposed to eat '5 a day'!

i found that sooo hilarious!

if you dont get it, it goes like this. in the UK health is very important, so on nearly all foodstuff, there will be a label stating how many of your five a day that one portion of that food would fulfill.

err... ok, so you might not find this funny, nevermind.

i initially planned on rambling more, but something more important has occured. bye.

Hey very informative. I've never heard of the "gushing out" sensation from my ex-gfs although I'm well familiar with the others. Interesting. No wonder it feels so uncomfortable...especially the not knowing part, and fretting about whether the pad got it all or if there are any visible stains.

I can imagine (better) just how uncomfortable periods can be now. I used to think of it as a mere inconvenience. :)

haha... actually im quite used to it already, and after tonnes of false alarms, i've learnt to trust my pads and instincts. so i dont rush to the toilet to check.

glad i could be of assistance in your understanding of periods :D

First time visit your blog. =)

Lol! I think it's quite funny about the 5 a day too. But most british still eat fish&chips and fatty food all the time. Sometime they made me wonder what's the point for 5 a day. xD

Happy Chinese New Year! =)
