huixian said that to me recently. i think it must have been when i was at her house watching friends.

but its true! i do! not quite sure when it started...secondary school? upper sec? yeah...sometime around then.

why?

1. i read in a newspp that eating slowly makes you full faster...mebbe its some psychological thing. like if u gobble and shuffle everything into your mouth within minutes you'll be like "harh? finished liao? so fast?" and you can't feel that you've actually eaten anything so you end up always wanting more. so the opposite applies.
2. this way, you get to <i>really</i> enjoy, and <i>taste</i>, your food. each burst of flavour. every texture. joy.
3. less gas = less burping
4. more, <i>ahem</i>, demure and feminine. hurhur.

so that is how it has been for the past few years. and i have no complaints. <i>(though sometimes abit paise when everyone is waiting for u to finish lah)</i>

u know what? someday when i am older i should join that 'slow-eaters club'. can't quite remember the actual name. epicurean something? oh but it is so exclusive! by invitation only? and friggin expensive...but they eat darned slowly! hurhur...

i should go out with del sometime and have lunch. it'd be fun....heh
