Routine Stuff

Today I was thinking about going out to buy some new stuff for myself but then backed out. Put that to my lazy nature. Normally I just want to laze around during weekends fearing about the cruel and gruesome 5 which lie ahead. I have a release in Jan and am yet to finish off coding. Only god knows when would I complete all the documentation!

In IT, for every hour of coding you have to do 3 hours of documentation and with me being the sole person reponsible for this release, I can't do anything but take all this in my stride.

Coming to shopping, I love spending on new T's and Jeans. I hardly have formals. Even on a Monday, let alone the other days, you would find me in those. Thank god I work at a place where there are no strict dress codes, otherwise I wuold have been taken to task.

There is another reason behind me not wearing formals, and that is...my weight.

My BMI stands at 24.8 and it does not help that now standard is such that people with BMIs between 23-25 are overweight and beyond that, the dreadful term "obese".
Talking abut BMIs, I have a collegue who is quite well built, weighs a trifle more than I do but has the same height as me. When I told him about the revised standards, I myself just couldn't stop laughing. He was one of those who used to joke about my weight and it was nice (though a little surprising) that he is "obese" and I am "just overweight" :D.

Again coming back to the shopping & clothes(just getting drifted away time & again. Well put all these to my random thoughts), there are a few people I know who would continue to roam around, even if they have work, till everyone notices them in their new attire. Even that isn't enough for them , they want others to ask how much did the clothes cost(especially if they have bought something expensive). Only if the new clothes could be worn with their price tags on :)
