Point Noted

Dear Annonymous,

Tks for your comments as well, which left me deep in thoughts. Do appreciate it. I dun deny that comments are good unless it is:

1. Constructive;
2. Handled with sensitivity.

Tink most ppl may be wondering why I'm upset abt this. Simple. I'm not like those slim gers out there who are born thin, and despite the huge amount of food they input, they dun seemed to grow fat. I had my fair share of being Fat, ex-T.A.F club member, being laughed at by people, pinching your chubby cheeks and the "centre" of attraction, not being able to fit into nice clothes etc. Yes! I've been through it. That's why I've alwayz been more sensitive to 'big' people. Coz I totally understand how they feel. And I'll even go to the extent of being protective over them, esp u hab those irritating ppl when taking food orders, who say something like: "You sure u enough to eat??..." To normal ppl, they may not feel anything. But to them, it's insulting. Yet, they can do nothing abt it, but simply shrug it off and treat it like a joke. If you tink that's not enough, there're even more mean ppl out there who will gib u the kinda "LOOK", and tell you straight in your face this: "We dun hab your Size!"

It's not easy being what I am today, hence I dun deny that I can get really upset and paranoid by the word "FAT", or just even "Ba-Ba". I guess, most of the time, we tend to offend ppl with our comments, juz becoz it lacks sensitivity. We juz hab to mindful of the comments we make to ppl, as different ppl reacts differently.

And YES!! There are indeed ppl out there who *gasp*, have got nothing better to do and pass worthless comments. If u've read Xiaxue's and Rockson's blog, u'll noe wat I mean.

That said, these are my own personal thoughts. And no one has to agree with me. However, my point still stands:

Certain things are best to be left unsaid. Period.
