Well, as some of you may or may not know, I have been working out again. Yup, me and Billy Blanks rekindled are hot and steamy romance and things are going well. I really enjoy it and I feel alot better. I was turning into quite the fatty while in school. In addition to being good for my body, I find it is a great outlet for stress. Really great for my mental health, if ya know what I mean. So I have shed a few pounds. It feels nice, I look better, etc. So naturally, my pants have gotten bigger, therefore I need some new digs. Today, Pita and I went to Mitra, a department store in Jambi City. I think there were about 8 pairs of pants, total, in the store that even looked like they MIGHT fit. And then there were the 2 pairs that actually did fit. And then there were 2 that were too big. Now, lets not be ridiculous. I am not counting the Plus size (which are abt the equivalent to a US size 12) polyester. 70′s style pants that come up to right under your boobs that come in every color of the rainbow, most with some amount of elastic in the waist. I am not that desperate. I even perused the men’s section. Just as depressing. I really felt like shit after that. Here I am thinking…wow…this working out stuff is great! And now all I want to do is drink a milkshake!! haha! However, I know that this is not indicative of anything substantial. Had I been born in Indonesia I would welcome the polyester!! So just a head up, if you are thinking about coming here for a while, and your waist is larger than about a 24, I would consider another country, or coming well stocked. So April…you are all set.
