So the number hasn't changed, but I FEEL like I've put on weight ever since I came back from Hong Kong. It's such an inevitable thing when you live in Australia. I remember most of my friends from high school saying they would always put on weight when they came back for school (they were international students), and I also remember envying them because they could go home and lose the weight. Whereas I live here so I just keep gaining and never losing. Maybe my metabolism is still working really fast because of all that exercise I did last year, and later on it will slow down. Nooo.... Hopefully the heat will have some effect.
Which brings me to another complaint I have. I know we haven't had a heatwave like previous years, so that's something to be really thankful for, but I dislike hot weather so much. Yesterday the temperature reached almost 43 degrees Celsius and during that time I was running around the city trying to find my bus stop. It was such a horrible experience, but one I am sure will repeat itself many, many times in the future. Especially near future. I get lost in Adelaide, the smallest city ever - how am I going to survive in Seoul!!??
Okay, enough complaining. I got a phone call from the Cancer Council today and they told me they had openings for volunteer work! For three days a week! This is extremely good news because now I have something to do for the next few weeks before I leave. Three days a week plus Saturday and Sunday means only having two days free for miscellaneous catching ups and gatherings, which is fine by me. I know people complain about having work all the time but I am quite the opposite. Having something to do is actually exciting for me, isn't that sad? I make myself sound like such an introvert (I am..) but it's mainly because I don't take the initiative to do anything, so I stay at home. I am cool like that.
