Must join a stupid weight losing club!
Can you imagine having two of the most dreaded things a student would not want. Firstly, being fat means you have to go to TAF Club which basically really means FAT Club. They just jumble up the words to make us feel better. Why couldn't they name it the FIT Club. Sounds nicer right? Plus, TAF Club were dominated by all the oversized students of Singapore before but now in my school, even underweight students need to go for TAF Club.
I wonder what they do there. Are they like forced to eat 5 chicken drumsticks, 5 roti pratas, 2 nasi lemak and more? Maybe just so people would stop saying TAF Club's are only for Fat chubby students since skinny underweight students are in it too?
Need to endure all the name calling!
Next time people call you fat. Just say to them " I am not fat, just chubbier and cuter than you are :P!". Plus being called fatty, fat, Ah pui, gemuk, buncit is not a good thing. Its name calling and can cause emotional pressure to someone. With that you can be charge under section 112 for causing emotional trauma to sumone.lol.
Lets see, i was never called names when in primary school except for 1 or 2 occasions as there are fatter people in my class and school. Trust me, when i say they are fat, they are really fat. This two boys can sign up for an underage sumo wrestling membership or sumting. Omg, i sound so rude.haha.
Anw, when in secondary school, started of with fatty and Ah Pui. In secondary two, i upgraded to being called Ah Pui Fiq. It sounds funny but humiliating too coz if sumone calls you Ah Pui only, you can act as if you dun know that they are calling you. Now with a part of your name in it, you cannot hide from the fact dat the person is calling you. Plus, i was having a major acne outbreak in secondary two. I was called Pimple Face at first, then i slowly upgraded to Pimples and then Pimply and finally Pimply Fiq. All this names were given by the same guy sumore.
Double KO for me coz he put parts of my name in it lor. Ah Pui Fiq and Pimply Fiq. walau! Now he just calls me Ah Pui Fiq and i dun mind anymore coz it doesn't matter as long as i know i am no longer the old Ah Pui Fiq. Plus, he calles everybody who was fat last time Ah Pui. Crazy ah dat guy.
Need to handle emotional pain
However, the name calling did cause my self-confidence to drop. I begin to be over concerned to what people think of me. I would be thinking to myself if i were to wear this top, what would people judgement of me be. I began to be more wary of people i hang out with and if sumone were to aproach me to be friends, i would oso be wary. In conclusion, i am trying to say that name calling does no good to anyone.
To clear up the misunderstanding, This is Morbidly Obese
This is obese
This is fat(the only ugly picture of me left)
This is healthy size
Some names are also very ironic. I hear people calling each other "You Bloody Cheebye!", then how does dat person know that the other person has a bloody cheebye? did he go and check and plus, it is more commonly used for guys. Isn't it contradicting to scold dat guy bloody cheebye when he has a dick instead and his privates is not bloody?
Then there is the very common "Fuck You la!". Firstly, i am sure dat alot of people knows the definition of fuck right? well it is a word use to describe having sexual intercourse with. Then when sumones uses the word Fuck on another person, they do not intend to have sexual intercourse with the person right? then why they use dat word in the first place? Like i always say, you gotta mean what you say.
So name calling is not a good thing. It firsly causes emotional pain to the person you say it to and secondly some names does not make sense. So we shall stop name calling.
Humiliated
When you are fat, buying clothes is a big problem for you. Especially for teenage girls, it is embarassing to be buying a XXL top when other girls are wearing M or S sized shirts. People also will look at fat people differently if you enter shops. Maybe the sales person are scared the fat people will expand their clothes or sumting? The most painful word you can hear when shopping for clothes are "Sorry, we dun have it in your size", "XXL shirts are all over dat corner", "This is the biggest we have". Some shops sell clothes dat are small and only minority people can wear. Once, i really like this pair of pants so much and in the end, the sales person say they dun have it in my size as that is the biggest they have. By saying that, that is the biggest, means my size is extremely big la? Shops should start selling one size fits all clothes and widen the variety of sizes they have. If they dun, put a sign like this so we know that fat people clothings are not available.
Kamsa Hamnida!
