Too Much Food...

A bystander.That's who I am and always will be.

With the world shrinking and connections of people growing by the minute,it's always nice to see how the relationship of people go.Having the privilege to update oneself on the latest happening surrounding someone has become so accessible and I find myself voyeur-ing into people's lives.That how I like to learn,by observing.I can see some of the pick up lines actually being used by someone I know,and then I make a mental note on the findings and results.

There are only so many things which you can learn by doing something,partly because of the speed that time flies.Through observation,you get to experience everything in another ray of light.You ponder over why people do what they do and how they do it,whether or not it succeeds or tank badly.

Seeing is definitely not believing since we can never tell the full story of every single action/word one said but we create perceptions from those and we link them up as much as we can.If there is a couple sitting in front of me in the bus,and the girl is crying,my first perception will be that he said or did something which hurt her but for all you know,it might be because of the passing of her hamster.Again,I can only tell or rather,predict so much from the body language and whatever words I can hear from eavesdropping.I guess now you have every reason to run away if you see me within 5 metres radius from you because you wouldn't know if I was trying to 'invade' your life but you see,I will only be interested if you seem interesting enough.No offence but it takes a lot to be classified under interesting for me,just look at myself,you can stench the boredom of my life from miles away.

Recently,I found out that my friend's ex-boyfriend is seeing a girl,who also happens to be my friend's ex-crush(I still don't know why they didn't become a couple because the feelings mutual and they seemed so close).From my point of view,I think the guy is a monster.Based on my perception,he's a control freak who's insecure about possibly everything.Based on my feelings,the only word that comes to mind is hate.The girl however,is probably not my type but she's nice,to me at least.And though she might be his type,I think he doesn't deserve her.Now,I'm in the kind of situation in which I wish I could tell her my side of the story no matter how irrelevant or insignificant I am in her life but I can't.Because of my history of feuds and conflicts between me and that waste of space,I would only make things difficult for myself and I would not live to see the next chapter of their lives,which I predict will filled with drama,if I were to do anything funny.So yes,the only thing I can do is let nature run it's course and watch as she falls prey.

Of course not all of you will be agree-able to everything that I said because my description is flawed,it's based on my judgement and it's prone to contain bias information against the guy.Since there will always be two sides to a coin,I will never hear his side of the story,not that I want to because I will not accept his view anyways so that waste of space will be wasting his breaths.I'm sure he too has a lot to say about me but like me,his views are based on perceptions and biased opinions.

Which leads me to say that if I build a perception of the person standing next to me,wouldn't that be describing him according to my version of dictionary and definitions?If so,then wouldn't that make me the ruler of my world,the God almighty in that sense?That means that we're all living in our own world whereby we set our own rules and boundaries or where we draw the line for every issues we face.What we see the world as will define ourselves and how we see ourselves in our world,we are in that sense what we want ourselves to be.Which will then be linked to the quote 'Tell me what you eat, I'll tell you what you are' - Anthelme Brillat-Savarin,in other words you are what you eat.

For tea break,I had a sinful and oh so good takeaway from Chippy which means that I am unhealthy after which I had rice,vegetable,soup,egg and ham for dinner which means I'm greedy and I had pudding with cream for dessert which means I'm a pig.

So for me to know who and how to define people accurately,I shall observe their diet.Even if it means describing someone as eating like a horse like the rather infamous celebrity chef once said about a certain Victoria Beckham when she had too much food on her plate.


You can say that I'm one curly fry in the box of the regular
Messing with the flavour oh the flavour that you savour
Saving me for last but you better not eat me at all
Living in a fast food bag making friends with the ketchup and salt
People say that I'm crazy for not moving on to better things
Instead I'm sitting around trash talking with the onion rings
But it's much too soon to leave this easy life
Pass me the spoon, pass the analytical knife

Cause you're about to get cut up and get cut down
It's all about the wordplay, all about the sound in the tone of my voice
You gotta let me make my choice alone
Before my food gets cold
Better shut up or get shot down
It's all about the know-how, all just a matter of taste
Stop telling me the way I gotta play now
Too much food on my plate

Believe it or not I super-sized my sights on the surprise in the cereal box
My stomachs smaller than my eyes
So I went to see the doctor and he said "turn your head and then cough"
I didn't listen to what he said instead I couldn't wait to get off
He said I can have this but I can't have that
That I should keep wishing I was living the life of a cat but
I ain't the one whose gonna be missing the feast
Just like you ain't the one who seems to be calming the beast

Cause you're about to get cut up and get cut down
It's all about the wordplay, all about the sound in the tone of my voice
You gotta let me make my choice alone
Before my food gets cold
Better shut up or get shot down
It's all about the know-how, all just a matter of taste
Stop telling me the way I gotta play now
You're putting too much food on my plate, come on

Well if you are what you eat
In my case I'll be sweet
So come and get some
I'm so oh oh over it

Cause you're about to get cut up and get cut down
It's all about the know-how, all just a matter of taste
Stop telling me the way that I gotta play
You put too much food on my plate, come on
Get up and get down
Get up and get some
There's too much food on my plate, come on
