I like work trips. I get to lose ALOT of weight because I don't have much appetite for huge meals. And honestly, since there isn't sashimi or sushi, I'm not too interested in the food. Heh.Obviously I skipped breakfast today. At 7am, it was too freaking early to eat. There was quite a spread at lunch. So each stand-alone food station dished out small portions to the guests. I was particularly happy with the Lao version of curry laksa. They used bee hoon, tau pok, beansprouts and a slice of egg. I like! Not healthy, but so tasty and spicy in a tasting portion. Fruit for dessert contributed to the necessary fibre. That was lunch.
Eating less carbs is good. I really don't need the extra carbs to put me to sleep. Sitting through the meetings is quite a challenge. I amuse myself by reading the papers and slides which had plenty of substance and relevant content. It's just tough to strain to understand all the accents and importantly, the different concepts and definitions behind the same words. Keeping awake during the long presentations is virtually impossible. At some point, one will nod off for at least 5 minutes. I'm guilty as charged already.

I almost nodded off this afternoon during a regional meeting and I was supposed to help my colleague to do the notes of meeting. Hee.
recently 'suan' my colleagues n bf in FB abt nodding off during their leadership course in TW..haha..it's really an agony to stay awake during extrinsic humdrum mtgs & presentations..i beg to differ from their stoic opinions of tahan-ing n choose to drown myself in gallons of coffee, or secretly snigger at the animated speakers hehe =P
sinlady: Hahahaha! Cannot snore! and cannot let the head nod too violently!
