New Accomplishment

I’ve had my first “solo” lunch today at the foodcourt…..

Why should this be an accomplishment? I’ve never really had my meal in the “open” before. At times when I have no company for any meals, I will either make sure I find someone or that I will simply pack lunch home to eat.

In this case, since I had no one to lunch with this week yet, I thought I try eating on my own. And yes…I did it! Haa…

I guess in my whole life, I have been blessed to always have someone to eat lunch with. With this new culture, I guess my “blessings” sorta ran out and I just had to be independent. At first I didn’t like the idea, simply because I really wasn’t quite used to this. At times when I really had no one to have a meal with previously, I would always pack home. And in this case, I had packed sandwiches and ate them whilst reading newspapers in the pantry.

Today, I actually had lunch on my own at the foodcourt.

Revelations: It ain’t as bad as I thought it would be. I get to choose where to go, what to eat and of course, can eat as slowly as I want to. And after lunch, if I still have some time on my own, I can walk around to wherever I feel like it. Hee…I can choose to skip lunch and go shopping too!!! Chinatown’s not too far from here…and if I have any errands I need to run…I can choose to do it anytime and anywhere I deem fit. Hee…

I think I’m starting to take a more positive side to this whole new job, new environment, and new culture feat. Feels good to be able to do whatever u want…

Let’s see what happens few months down the road huh? =)
