Cramped

Class did well for exams // 80s and 90s range for most subjects, feeling happy for them ☺ the instances where they woop for joy at their marks and tell us how proud their parents are of them reiterates the normality of their lives; that their emotions are relatable to us when we were twelve year old kids.
Yoga helps; that, and self help books. I think I'm going to try to cruise along the path of self-acceptance and hopefully not veer off it.

Upper trackies were ulti-judging me on my bulletproof tennis bag- sigh pie long gone were the days when I used to lug it to TJ like a hermit. When we were on our way to the crib, Mr Tan asked if I had a copy of the wksht and they ALL looked at me and started laughing coz getting things out of that black hole is *almost* impossible

Is my being a social recluse acceptable to the world idk

If you cannot be happy for yourself then others cannot be happy for you.
This is an often overlooked statement. I think the gist of it is that you control feelings of what you think of yourself. And what you think that others think of you is a reflection of what you think of yourself. The mind is so powerful and how true that if you're happy, the universe will conspire to bring you continual happiness. If you're sad and insecure, then everyone will just seem to go against you.
Been reading self-help books like Food: The Good Girls' Drug and the Craving Cure. All the fruits if a good library search.
If what one needs is to be accepted in life and love, then self acceptance has to be the first step in accomplishing that.
Just food for thought.

On a happy note - 2 lessons of yoga today after work. Feeling quite proud of this newfangled idea of my doing yoga. I always thought it'll be nothing much since half of the time it's breathing and dozing off on the sweaty mat. However it helps in curing (or curbing) the intense bingeing desires!!! Hopefully it works on me cuz my brain usually outwits my actions if that makes sense.
