Downsize me

Been trying to control my diet, and swimming again. Hopefully my efforts will pay off. Don't want to keep this tummy for much longer. I'm now huge on salads, cereals, yoghurt and high fibre mixed-grain bread. Not to mention all the fruit. I tasted blueberries for the first time. A little disappointing, squishy and rather bland. Think I'll stick to grapes. Dried cranberries are nice though. Oh, I also discovered that watermelon is actually not that nutritious, and melons can actually adversely affect digestion if eaten with a meal. Oh well.

In other news, I cooked a rather successful curry chicken korma, which is a sort of yellowish curry that's not hot. Unfortunately my family didn't appreciate it at all. I ate half of it. Luckily I invited Mr R to try it served with prata, and he liked it. What can I say? He might be my only fan. Hope he'll take the friendship option more seriously, then at least I'll still be able to keep a friend. Romance is out of the question, unfortunately.

On racial harmony day (21 July) I performed at the primary school as promised. I did get some really interested kids, but some were bent on destruction, banging on my instrument as hard as they can with my rather fragile bamboo hammers. Thank God nothing was damaged. But it was a really nice experience, and certainly some of the teachers and the principal liked it. I even got a souvenir! Nice.
