I moved to China for 4 months in an attempt to improve my Mandarin. What I did improve upon was eating. Eating the cheap street food. And boy, they were good. Cheap and delicious, what more could you ask for? I skyrocketed back to the 210s and when I came home for Christmas, my mom just shook her head in disappointment.
I did get a hair cut in China for 7 US dollars. It was awesome.
Really. I hate being in the 200s. But I somehow always manage to get back here. And I hate it. And I hate myself for letting my hard work go to waste.
Winters are always bad for me. It gets cold, I drink a lot of alcohol, and stop exercising. Unlike normal people, I don’t just gain a meager 5 pounds. If I’m gaining, I gain the whole 30.
