Detox Day 1

Remember how I said I cannot be a vegan but at least I can try to do detox? Coz well, when you can do a detox then you're one step ahead to be a vegan, am I right? Cewi and I were planning on this thing to have detox until we go back home to Makassar.

SO today when Cita, Cewi and I went to see our relatives - my father's mother's sister - and we sttled for a while at the bakery, I chosed vegetarian pizza over chicken and mushroom doughnut. Seriously. And I ate the paprika and the onion without complaining - I threw half of the onion, btw. But still, I didn't eat meat. Well, hadn't.

Coz what happened when we arrived at Ipo's place - that's what we called our granny's sister - really washed away my fortress of faith. There were loads of people, as a matter of fact, there were granny's brother and his wife, Ipo's hubby, Ipo's niece and her hubby and her son, and then another nephew and his wife and their son. The point was, there was no way we could reject their offerings to join them to eat yum-cha. :(( You know what happened next.

We were forced to eat this and that. And none of them without meat. And that was how my first day of detox went. Anyway, Ipo and friends were very nice and funny! They didn't know how to speak Indonesian though so we all had to speak Chinese with them - which was really hard considering our limited knowledge of the language. I really need to study lingustic, right? It's very important! Back to the family, they were all very good and I never thought old people can be very chatty and friendly and approachable. They were really different compared to my granny from mom. Not that she's not good, it's just felt different.

Talking about detox, I'll try again tomorrow. And like for real, coz I won't need to meet another relatives. :) And today's not really all about meat because at night Cita, Cewi and I went swimming and tried the sauna for like 15 minutes. It was friggin' hot!! 121 degree!! My head all dizzy afterward.

Right now need to study. It's final exams already! Pray for me, guys!! :)

  2. Are Detox and Botox the same? cause the sound is. I still can't believe you're so into turning down your stomach for detox considering your big whacky appetite in eating. As a good buddy, I am not gonna let this happen... Eventually things happen, as it happened to be your great aunt for instance, giving you delicious slurpy yum-cha, can't resist ye.. No offence.. Body shape is inevitable for some people sis... But do what u do man.. if cewi has it, you can have it too.. hehehe jks

    PS. just a perky reminder* beware of nutrition deficiency..*
