Now, I'm not going to lie. It can be embarassing when you're at hibachi or eating chinese with a dozen of your cousins who are using chopsticks... and the waiter walks by to hand you a fork. It's happened to me... more than once. My cousins have tried to teach me their chopstick methods without success. But, since I'm really good at using a fork, why not just continue with that?
So, today, I decided I was going to eat my dinner using ONLY chopsticks. I worked a little late tonight and decided to order chinese food on my way home. When I picked up my food, I asked for chopsticks because I was set on using them tonight. And, you know what? I did! So what if I had the instructions with me throughout dinner? Sure, it would've only taken me 5 minutes to eat my lo mein with a fork... but I was in no hurry. While it did take me 35 minutes (yes, an extra 30 minutes) to finish, at least I can say that I did it.
