i remember reading the papers a few weeks ago that talks about how your spending habits reflects one's happiness level.
to contray belief, those who spend lavishly and indulge themselves in branded stuff are not very happy people afterall. those who are stingy and hold their wallets tightly are not very happy people too. whereas, the happiest consumers are those who spend willingly on "experiences". "experiences" are like food, travelling, leisure activities as such..activities that you get to experience. heh! sounds so like me! i won't say that i'm a spendtrift, but if i have extra cash to spare, it's usually spent on food and trekking! though now i'm trying very hard to save...of course for an experience again!

and i was reading through some forums on how to lose weight. not that i'm trying very hard to lose weight lah. it's just that i need to get rid of my fat thighs so i can fit into slim pants. then i saw this post about body fat percentage. i remembered mentioning to xiao hui and bryan that my body fat percentage was 21% and they were quite surprise. i was quite puzzled coz i tot it was 'normal', but xiao hui told me that hers was like 10 plus percent only. am i that fat??? then i went to wiki..see! i'm fitness k!
