I was a fat kid born in a hick-town (Peterborough) in Ontario, Canada. Picture a shy fat
kid that had loads of friends but NEVER did anything wrong! I was a brown-noser
(kiss-ass) that no-one could hurt, because even though I was shy and I didn't like doing
"bad" things I had two older bros and I was a tough ass.
Life was grand!
Then when I had almost turned twelve and was about to experience junior-high...
'Hey everybody, let's move to Malta!'
So I was off to the Mediterranean Sea!
Now that's an adjustment if anything...
So I find myself in this new country, where I don't even speak the language and nothing is
the same.
It was like moving to Bedrock!
No McDonalds, BK, KFC, Pizza Hut, Subway... nothing. No K-Mart, Wal Mart, or Zellers just
these little ass stores and veggie trucks!
.....
So I start school, where its all boys and we have to wear uniforms.
Great! Now I'm a fat-kid in a foreign country wearing a faggady shirt, sweater and dress
pants everyday, I was obviuosly riduculled constantly at school until I met this kid from
Lafyette, Louisiana that's went through the same type of move but was a skeleton. We
became best friends and he taught me how to stand up for myself and I ended up becoming
the toughest little shit around.
Years went by and I could no-longer stand being fat and always hanging out with someone
who was like 1/3 my size. We went to the beaches and everyone looked so good, I couldn't
take it. So I was determined to get thin. We began bike riding, swiming, hiking...
everything. The process just took too long so I put myself on the most strict diet ever.
I ate one healthy sandwich every other day and drank 2 liters of this amazing German
Multivitamin juice everyday. Water became my air, I drank water from the moment I got up
till the moment I went to sleep. This all lasted for about a good year and I lost 60lbs
and grew 6". Amazing! For anyone who was big once, you know how hard it is to keep
it down and still try to lose those last couple of inches. So ever since I've been a bit
of a health freak.... and pill popper (almost anything that will help)
We went on to make loads of friends and hung out with the wealthy ppl. It was actually
kinda weird... We were these "common" ppl but we just seemed to relate better
with the 'higher' class. Carl, my best friend, and I got together a little group of
foreigners that met other groups of foreigners and we became this huge crew of
internationals.
Carl and I went from a secondary school to a Technology school and became cooks and
tailers. He worked in his dads petshop for a while and I did factory work and
contstruction.
Carl found that he was more of a business guy but I loved cooking! So I cooked in a bunch
of restaurants and served the bar and did the waitering and bussing for years. I had the
oppurtunity to cook for a couple of famous ppl visiting Malta and learned loads from a few
international chefs.
