It’s NYE 2009 and I’m sitting here @ work.  Not that I’m counting, but 1 hour 10 mins to go.  This entire week I’ve been so fidgety at work cause everyone else is out and about with their time off while I’m trucking to work @ 6 in the morning.  C’mon peoples, who reeeeally needs to open up claims on NYE, who reeeeally needs to buy travel insurance on NYE. 

My new year’s reso’s are the same as last year’s and all the previous years before: spend less $$, lose weight, exercise, and be more productive.  I have 6 weeks until I go home which means I have to shed 10lbs or I’ll never hear the end of it when I get back.  Typical Asian families will say “oh you’ve put on a bit of weight - you look great!” but my family has no reservations and I know exactly what they would say: “oh Rebecca, you’ve put on a bit of weight, you look fat.”  I’d much rather starve myself the next 6 weeks and avoid unecessary fat comments. 

Side note: Can’t wait to go home! Mama’s cooking, Ten Ren’s green tea slush, Demetre’s waffles, pork bone soup, here I come!

Happy New Year everyone!
Bottoms up.
