My mom has been nagging me to cut back on my food intake and to become try out more activities other than reading my pile of books and facing my laptop. I know I need to and that she has a point.

She was told not to eat rice for two weeks. On top of that great ordeal, she was also told not to eat any sweets. Oh yeah that’s why the word diet’s first three letters spells d-i-e!
