Hi
In fact, today's incident influenced me to write this on access India. It was
somewhat hillarious, somewhat embarrassing
After Christmas celebration in our college, I went to have lunch in our college
caffeteria. Usually I bring my lunch box to college, but today I just forgot it
at home. So, I and some of my friends went to caffeteria along with our
Economics ma'm. Sitting on a seat in front of a circular granite table, I
childishly said "noodles", when my friends asked me what I wanted to have. I
gave the money to my friend, and he brought me a plate of noodles.
It contained two disposable plastic forks, and boy, I thought this time I am
caught! "No, not this time," I said to myself, "I somehow ought to give my best
shot, best impression! and its going to work, somehow its going to work.".
After thus assuring myself, I started on my own. I'm not going to narrate what
happened then, but I ended up lying them that the food was not tasty and I then
returned to classroom.
First of all, it was embarrassing to discuss any kind of issue like this on the
list, but I have overcome such embarrassment. As is the case, I would like to
know some of your tips of using cutleries, like spoons, forks, knives etc
properly, in front of sighted folks.
Yes, one can always use their hands to have the food, but I think we too
are entitled to eat "attractively". If not attractively, at least to save the
time of washing our hands after the meal, we need to use such things.
With best regards
Syed Imran
