"I get to sit in front because i am fat", is my favorite line all time whenever i have to cram into a car full of people. You can imagine that one of me is equivalent to 2 skinny people. Thus, allowing me to enjoy the spacious seat beside the driver.
The joy of getting praise to how i can dance the samba is precious. Mainly because i am fat, my bottoms move a lot with a small movement, giving it the flow and curviness of dancing samba. Obviously, being fat does not stop me from dancing.
However, people always say unpleasant things to me. Such as, :"you can't do this lar, too fat" or "Don't do it, it is only for skinny people." I admit, i lack the stamina to do many sports, but that should not hinder me from doing things i know i can do it.
Eventhough i love dancing, i have to admit something. It is that even able to dance, i usually can never fit into the costume. Many a times, i have to squeeze into a really tight dress, or expose the flabby arms i have.
Certain sports require alertness or being fast; however, sports that allows you to dance at your own pace are those that i can do. Simply because i am able to set my own timing, giving me the sense of accomplishment whenever i finish doing it. Such are Taekwondo and Latin dancing.
In conclusion, i have been fat for so long that i got used to things. Eventhough i might not be the best dancer or best sportie, i love doing those things because i am enjoying myself.
When you enjoy yourself,
EVERYTHING is POSSIBLE!!
EVERYTHING is POSSIBLE!!
