i entered late
10 mins later, interval for refreshment, it could not get any worse
i spent my time maneuvering my way out of socializing
life is one long series of obligatory societal norms
i am always running away from something or somebody
when the bell sounded for end of recess
i made my way to the direction of the lavatory
and out of the building
off to forbidden city
potato, bamboo shoots and shitake muchrooms wrapped in beancurd skin
all time favourite
goes well with corona
it's not just the food or the beer
it's about getting a breather
from familiar sickening faces
***
i was relating the dish to adel
when it seems people who don't care for food are usually disgusted with people who can enjoy their food
i wonder if there's this holier than thou mentality attached to 'my-body-is-the-purer-temple'
or those anorexic girls who feel empowered by not eating
in the office, there's a colleague's disdain for foodies whereby the defintion of foodie refers to one who welcomes food as opposed to one who welcomes good food
did i share her disdain?
