Whoever thinks that I don't have patience should come and see me eat with chopsticks..
Gimme a pair of chopsticks and I will try to lift anything and everything with my chopsticks under the pretext of learning to use them :) !! I make a big mess at the end of a rather long lunch/dinner (how about 1 hour?) spent fiddling with the chopsticks. The seemingly easy task of lifting things off the plate and putting them in my big mouth has now become a complex process involving my clumsy fingers, the awkwardly held chopsticks and finally gravity!!
However, I think I have already mastered the art of eating with chopsticks in a weightless environment. But then, I still have to live on planet earth, yeah with gravity around, things held between the chopsticks tend to fall back into the bowl splashing whichever colored liquid it held on everything in its vicinity. I have a t-shirt which has a horizontal line on its chest which most people can't decipher as my artwork with chopsticks :) !!
But then, the warrior in me refuses to give up. After all, how hard can it be to chase that last morsel of rice left on your plate with a pair of chopsticks?
hey dude..shld have put a snap of ur's ..eating with chopsticks...:)
ReplyDeletewill tell you the secret between skillful-chopsticks-user's fingers and the chopsticks ：）
ReplyDeleteI think we should make it mandatory for everyone to eat with chopsticks, and then we will get more time to spend with the people we chose to eat with. Yes we do run into the risk of people mastering the art of eating with chopsticks over a period of time. The solution then is to invent chopsticks of different shapes, like S or L or a combination.
ReplyDeleteHave I just opened gates for people to ponder, invent and discover?
