Skinny women in
skinny jeans are some kind of people many of us love to hate. No matter how much they eat, they never seem to get fat. While the rest of us obsess over every tiny bit of food passing through our lips,
sigh....... we’ll put on the kilos if we let our guard down for just one moment.
I couldn't believe it when a student showed me the
skinny houses she discovered in Amsterdam.
Amsterdam is known for it’s tightly-packed and skinny structures. These houses located along a canal, are about a metre wide each. They expand as they recede from the street. I wonder how it feels to live in such skinny space.
Oh, I just learnt from her too that a coffee prepared with skimmed milk is described as
skinny. hehe.....

U are skinny oso ma... OK OK, not skinny... mmm, for you, FIT is the word ;)
ReplyDeleteWah.. those 'skinny' houses, how they sleep? And "do" things, huh? Kekekeke...
My angel,
ReplyDeleteAfter being nursed for 3 months due to my injured ankle, become fat already lah! Look like Aunty now.
Lagi best. Sleep on top of each other. One metre wide, how to put Queen size bed? hehehe.....
Skinny dipping is pretty cool too!

aiyoh Eunice,
ReplyDeleteYou sweet girl, make me so happy with your comment. *pinch pinch Eunice's cheeks*
satkuru,
ReplyDeleteYes.... I wonder how it looks inside. So weird shape, narrow and long.
Captain Picard,
ReplyDeleteWhat were you doing in Amsterdam? Holidaying?
Those houses are certainly skinny. People must need to be very skinny to live in them, LOL. Have a lovely weekend!
ReplyDeleteMy Skinny pics are up at Siani's Pot-Pourri.
As always a good take on the theme. I never would have thought of skinny houses. I've never been to Amsterdam but I can imagine the skinny houses would be interesting. Hope you have a pleasant weekend.
ReplyDeleteI saw your question on my blog about how tall I am. It's funny because I converted it to cm since I know most people use the metric system and I went, wow, I am tall in cm. So, I'm 175.3 cm but I'm only 5 ft 9 inches in the other system which doesn't sound so tall, ha.
ReplyDeleteAwesome skinnies, I love skinny lattes... so yummy!!
ReplyDeleteThe Rocky Mountain Retreat
Skinny , and you lose something else with it..*wink*
ReplyDeleteCarver,
ReplyDeleteAt your height, I would have to look up to you because I'm only 163cm tall. :(
Eve,
ReplyDeleteOoops.... I'm going to lose my 'sisters'!! No!
Skinny houses of Amsterdam! I once went to a movie in Amsterdam and it was such a narrow place, no wider than my living room. It was an English movie with Dutch subtitles and the Dutch talked all the way through because they could read the subtitles and we couldn't hear the dialogue!
ReplyDeleteI love those jeans
ReplyDeletei don't like tight spaces so i guess i can't survive on those apartments. ;)
ReplyDeletenice picks for this week's theme. ;)

ReplyDeletei love those houses. cute!
ReplyDeletethanks for the visit. :)
There must be alot of skinny people in Amsterdam. Hehe
ReplyDeleteWow, those are really skinny houses. Great take for the theme.
ReplyDeleteCan't imagine how to live in a meter wide house.
ReplyDeleteconsider ourselves blessed as we can sleep on the queen or king sized bed ;)
ReplyDeleteThe houses in Amsterdam. The front door's small but what about the back. Hmm.. if Asian country has that kind of house, I think they're gonna knock down the next door neighbor's house.
ReplyDeleteI could eat like a horse until my 50th birthday and remained slim, now I have to pay attention, lol !
ReplyDeleteYou should see the "skinniest" house in Amsterdam on my Travel Blog, I go there quite often because my son lives there. The houses are not skinny besides this one. It is large like one window.
BTW I take the Cyber Cruise today to the Ice Sculpture Exposition in Brugge, so if you have time, have a look.
Skinny women in skinny jeans are some kind of people many of us love to hate.Oh, yes!!!!
ReplyDeleteLove your take on the theme, those skinny houses are very intriguing :)
Happy weekend to you!! I saw you as friend of somebody else's in FB and since I hardly have any :( I went ahead and contacted you, thanks for answering! I realize the whole thing is very time consuming, though...
skinny jeans are the fashion today sigh... i cant fit on those skinny houses lol!
ReplyDeleteHaha... I should know about skinny because my wife is perenially skinny no matter how much she eats. I have never seen her plump before - not even a bump on her tummy - after being together for coming to 9 years now.
ReplyDeleteNever knew there is such skinny houses around. @.@
ReplyDeleteLove those skinny houses.
ReplyDeleteAh, excellent takes on the theme!
ReplyDeleteHappy weekend!
You have nice entries for the theme.
ReplyDeleteI love skinny jeans but sad to say I don't look good in one (and can hardly fit into one).
ReplyDeleteToo funny. I actually was seriously running down to Starbucks to get a Skinny Latte for today.
ReplyDeleteThose are some skinny houses. I would love to see the inside.
sigh if the lady in jeans is you ;)
ReplyDeletekekeke lol... i would visit yr blog a few times a day

Beautiful photos! I've heard of those skinny houses and we have some here in the Phils. Thanks for dropping by ;)
ReplyDeleteNice take on the theme, skinny jeans are really in. Have a great Sunday.
ReplyDeleteYes, I had heard about all of those houses in Amsterdam. Great shot!
ReplyDeleteHappy Weekend.
When I was teenager I was skinny one and now I gain weight but let me tell you I seen people who are a lot heavier then I and I'm not trying to use that as an excuses.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the compliment, eastcoast! I'm sure you are skinny too! Not a insult - I love skinny!
ReplyDeleteI really admire the Holland people, they are expert in finding solutions to problems, they had a way of solving problems, efficiency in building nice houses along the river and romantica!
ReplyDeleteOh I couldn't imagine living in a skinny house like that!! How on earth would I rearrange my furniture every few months?? ha ha Great photos. Come peek at mine.
ReplyDeleteI personally prefer the not too skiny type. I mean, take a look at all the paintings, most of the girls are not that skinny. What happens to modern day fashion. I think girls in long dress are nice. Skinny ones don't really look that good with that.
ReplyDeleteTalking about skinny buidlings, there are plenty in HK due to space constraint :)
i always envy those whom can eat a lot and won't put on a pound, me is those whom will put on pounds when eat too much thus had to watch my diet, had been watching for the past few weeks and it yields effects.. Yeah, edure!!
ReplyDeletewow, skinny indeed! :) the only thing i remembered abt amsterdam were those tall windows with girls in all sorts of shapres n sized eyeing me in a very gatai way...scary!!! n also the canabis lolly i bought n ate, after that scared pulak, coz scared kena caught at the airport!! lol but actually nothing la. it was candy mar...
ReplyDeleteYalo yalo, really beh song those people, who, no matter how they eat, cannot get fat at all! =/
ReplyDeleteThe skinny house ust have been built for people who look like Posh spice! Needless to say I don't ook like her for 2 reasons (male and carying too much weight!). Happy weekend
ReplyDeleteCool - I have missed this one with the Amsterdam shot, I see.
ReplyDeleteHave a great week!
I wonder what it looks like inside the skinny house...
ReplyDeleteThose skinny houses are unbelievable! I would go crazy in such a skinny place! Great photos, My hunt is up, please come and visit
ReplyDeleteSkinny jeans - how I wish I could still wear them!
ReplyDeleteSara from farmingfriends
I never thought I'd wear a pair of skinny jeans because it makes me look short and fat, but since all the other "less skinny" girls are also wearing it... oh heck, pakai saja lah!
ReplyDeleteI bet you'd look hawt in those skinny jeans!
