Farting My Way Through a Day of Regret
Sitting on my bed with my laptop open in front of me I am completely immersed in my online world. The notifications follow one another, but I can hear an increasingly insistent rumbling coming from my stomach. I think back to what I ate today and realize that my choices were not the best.
I started the day with a quick breakfast a slice of chocolate cake left over from yesterdays party and a cup of very sugary tea. Unhealthy choices, I know, but I couldn't resist the temptation. For lunch, I fooled my hunger with a kebab stuffed with spiced meat, spicy sauce and crunchy vegetables, all wrapped in a soft pita bread. To complete the meal, I also had some French fries, because, as we know, one leads to another.
In the afternoon, I gave in to a package of gummy candies that had hidden in my travel bag, a sin of gluttony that I could not ignore. And now, as I scrutinize the screen, I feel the consequences of these choices. A small fart makes its way, followed by another, more noticeable one. I blush, knowing that I can't escape this situation.
What was I thinking? I say to myself. Even though I'm alone in the room, I feel a little embarrassed. The combination of heavy food and sweets is taking its toll.
I smile, resigned, and try to focus on my surroundings. Maybe it's time to think about a more balanced diet. But I can't help but think that, who knows, maybe tomorrow I'll make better choices!
