THAT, my friends, is cellulite. Sometimes when you're walking down the street and you see some person wearing short shorts or a miniskirt, and she has like.. all this lumpy & bumpy... yeah. I'm terrified by the thought of cellulite, so today when I saw this pic, I immediately changed into a pair of shorts and joggers and went into the backyard for a 15 minute run.
=____________________________=;
After that I did 30 mins of skipping. And then I did 30 sit ups.
I felt so much better after all that exercise.
Digressing,
Doing biology today turned off my appetite. Reading about vectors, parasites, and bursting red blood cells all day made me feel abit sick. D: I picked Down Syndrome as my non-infectious disease to study because I find it mildly interesting. Pregant women who are over the age of 35 have a higher risk of carrying a baby with Down Syndrome. Those who are, can take an aniocentesis sampling (I think its taking the amniotic fluid out for analysis) in early pregancy to see whether they carry an infected baby. If they do, they have a choice of keeping or aborting the baby.
Seriously, why take that risk? HAVE BABIES BEFORE 35 DAMNIT. Aborting a kid because it has some life long disease makes sense, but it sounds so cruel. Such a controversial arguement. Personally, I would never take that chance. If I decide to have a kid in the future, I'll definately have one WITHIN 17 years time.
Ooh. This reminds me of the time my cousin and I were talking about life plans. When I was around 12, she was telling me all the things she wanted to achieve by whenever. Just the usual stuff. Example life plan as follows: :P
18- graduate from hs
22- graduate from uni
22-28 - find the other half (while having a successful corporate life)
28-30- GET MARRIED AND HAVE KIDS PLS BEFORE 35.
afterwards: RETURN TO THE WORKFORCE
Most asian mothers I know were forced to stop working to look after the family. Imho, because of this trend, many couples put off having kids (LIKE SOME OF MY COUSINS D: ) because the wife has a super awesome position in a company and LOVES her career and
bah. i lost my train of thought. I've been chewing badly at this ginormous piece of hubbabubba (4 pieces woohoo) and I blew this HUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUGE bubble that stopped me typing for a while, and it blocked my vision. Big bubbles are fun. Metallic blue in colour. How quirky.
By the way. Its REALLY COLD TODAY. And it was really dark as well D: D: D: Winter came too early.
BLAZERS THIS TERM. Big woop.
See you all Tuesday.

OMG, you're fitness is making me feel guilty...
Oh and babies are expensive business. Plus you might not find Mr/Mrs Right so quickly. Or you might get a divorce and have a kid with your new Mr/Mrs Right.
Btw, the plan fails...
Most coporates are too busy to have a personal life... Women in the corporate world have to work even harder than men to set themselves apart and be successful. Also, it is extremely hard to return to the workforce in a higher position if you take longer than 2 years off as a mother and it's hard balancing a family and a corporate life anyway.
Also, interesting statistic I know for sure because I've seen it with my eyes. 90% of AIGFS's board of executives have divorced/have had affairs... Oh and there are also 2 other female executives besides my Mum currently whilst there are like 10+ guys so the odds are against you.
who'd you convince to take a photo of your legs?
hehehe
kidding
i'm trying to imagine you doing situps, and i can't
exercise bonus: a gorgeous summer tan
and would you compensate by being with someone you don't TRULY love, so you can have a baby at a younger age?
enjoy the rest of your hols,

Hello,
Came across your blog and had to comment. While one does have an increased risk for having a child with Down syndrome after the age of 35, the MAJORITY of babies with Down syndrome are born to women UNDER 35. I was 28 when I gave birth to my daughter who has Down syndrome. And you are right about one thing....it "sounds so cruel" to abort these children because it is. It is not a "life-long disease"-not a disease at all in fact, but I am sure your research will find that. Please check out www.ndss.org, www.nads.org, and www.gigisplayhouse.org for current info about Down syndrome. And thanks for choosing this as your topic-you are obviously a bright, energetic, curious, and funny young girl with an amazing future :) Let me know if you need a personal story or an interviewee for your paper!
Correct me on this one if I'm wrong, but aren't most babies with Down's born under 35 simply because that's when most women choose to have babies?
And isn't it a disease under the broad definition that a 'disease' is anything that interferes with normal functioning of the body? Though under that definition, breaking your arm might count as a disease too..
Not attacking a view or anything, just a few points.
Anyway. That photo has inspired me to go exercise :D
dont make me tell everyone how much you suck at metal gear solid bubbles!
don't make me tell everybody how ridiculously lame your "phone sex" conversations are, Mr Anonymous! ;)
