Do you eat alone?
Do you fear of eating alone?
What do you think of people who eat alone?
The other day I chanced upon this article when I was in the camp. The headline was;
Campaign message to chew on: OK to eat alone!
The first thing that came to my mind was; "Wah! Govt damn free and sibei got money! Go launch campaign just to encourage people to eat alone?"
But apparently, this campaign was created by NUS undergrads to tackle fear of eating alone during meals.
To be honest, I will avoid eating alone during meals if possible, I find it uncomfortable and weird. Friends who know me I always talk during meals (that's why I always finish my meal last. lol) so asking me to eat alone with no one to talk to will bore me to hell.
Another reason is I don't want to give the impression that I have no friends to eat with. Err, all right! I am kinda shallow minded but whatever!
I always see people who eat alone are unsociable if not unpopular that's why they have to eat alone as no one want to eat with them mah! (ahem! Shallow minded...)
Asked a few friends (had a very interesting discussion with my army cliques!) about their views on this campaign; most of them thinks that it's pretty unnecessary and there is nothing weird or independent on people who eat alone! Some people just need some own time.
Aha! Funny this topic sparked my interest to blog about it!
