i mean. there are all kinds of people around in this world. and i won't be surprised if there are people who very honestly believe that they are better and should be treated better, be given more priviledges etcetc. (though i think in North American, they'd be labelled as mentally unstable) >.<
There's nothing we can do about such people. When we encounter these characters, we just move on and continue with our own merry business. It's not our job to change others.

OK, you need to stop questioning why you're doing it, and start to focus on stopping yourself from eating more chocs and sweets!!
You'll go into a sugar crash soon. It's a vicious cycle... you eat lots of sugar-laden food, you get a 'high' for a short while, then you suddenly get an energy crash. You then eat more sugary items and get an energy rush and a perk-me-up, and then you crash again...
It's all thanks to your body's insulin doing its job well.

how many doctors/psychologists etc are there out there in this world who are doing their jobs just for the money...???? and not because they want to help or anything...??

We could give them something to think about, but our involvement ends there. Whether they take it up is another matter altogether. At the same time, we have to be extra careful about our own actions and keep our own yard in order, while giving others a little room for understanding (or excuses).

Does it matter?
I used to get bothered by such things but not anymore because I've come to realise that sometimes, the doctors / psychologists who choose their profession because of monetary reasons are actually really good in their jobs, which in turn, benefits their patients and clients.
I've met nurses who are motivated by money or flexibility but that doesn't mean that they perform worse than nurses who are in it for altruistic reasons.
In an ideal world, people will do whatever their heart dictates. But this world is far from ideal and as long as the job is done and done right, who's to judge the raison d'etre?

but...but...it's the FIRST TIME i recall ever eating THIS MUCH chocolates >.<
it's NEVER happened before. oddly enough. hahahhaa.
good god. how the hell do you stop...???
i wonder if this is how addicts feel. it's like i'm trying to force my arm to reach out for the chocs or something. ARGH....!!!!
i have an 'addictive' personality. as in >.< i get addicted to stuff very easily >.< which is why i've never dared to try anything like smoking (anything), and i don't drink either. and i don't play too much computer games etc.
but then of course, there are still things im addicted to >.< strangely, i can actually survive without the computer/internet so long i have something else to do to occupy my time.

You could start with self-deprecation...be unflattering about yourself but in a joking, disarming way.

i was matchmade by one of my ah sir.he felt that the guy will be suitable for me because he shares the same temperment as me.
we have underlying same qualities.
But it cannot work out. We argue most of the time and i felt more like his elder sister then he should be 8 years my senior.

shield your lappies, I see magneto in the house ...

Not everyone will be receptive to feedback, no matter how well-intentioned and diplomatically-said.

*me mysteriously appears in a puff of smoke*
Last week we were given an assignment to do on some tough chemical reactions. I spent much of the day last Saturday trying to figure it all out manually. In the end, I had to give up halfway through because it was so difficult to do and I was having a real huge migraine because of it.
Then just yesterday, my lecturer sent us a revised version of the assignment. Apparently, he wants us to run computer simulations of the chemical reactions, NOT manual hand calculations!
Bloody hell....to begin with, he didn't specify the part about running computer simulations! In the absence of such information, I always assume that everything is to be done manually!
And now, after wasting one whole day on useless manual calculations, he doesn't want to give us a deadline extension! Basket!
*flips the table*

but too much of that will be a turn-off too. haha. it's all about....balance. hahaha. >.<
you can also talk about how you are great and wonderful and the best thing in the world. but you'd better seem as though you are joking about it too. hohoho~ and don't say it too often.
and you'd better be convincing about the whole 'joking' thing. sometimes when some people try that, it's just so unnatural that it's just erm.......AWKWARD!

I don't know you (as your nick suggests
) but already, I feel proud of you. 
It's true that certain people tend to inherit a more 'addiction-prone' personality. It's been proven that there is an area in the brain that predisposes one to addictions more easily than others. And after discovering that in yourself, you took steps to ensure you never fell into the trap. I really applaud you for being so level-headed and responsible, esp since you live in a culture where it's all too easy to become one of the majority who do get addicted to 'bad' things.
As the Aussies say, "Good on you!"

So I now rely on small bars of chocolate with nuts to stay calm.

oh yah. those were 2 GOOD (grocery-store bought) bars. so maybe that's why i ate so much too. heehee =P
the brands were: Cote D'or (or something like that) and Nativa. the Nativa one is organic and i'm so surprised it was good >.<
on the other hand...Scharffen Berger is shitty chocolate :x it was a complete waste of my money!!!!

Yesterday, I watched an elderly female patient work herself up to a frenzied panic post-operatively. She was working herself up into this state where she'd end up with muscle spasms and all that, so after gently trying to persuade her for some time, I got firm and told her to "Get a grip on yourself!!"
Then I told her that if she doesn't, she WILL go into muscle spasms that will require a ton of drugs to placate which will then predispose her to hallucinations and delirium.Some people...

I wanna be a professional bum too - the first half of my life I wanna be a professional; the 2nd half of my life I wanna be a bum.
