lunch, life
Thursday, March 13, 2008

I bought the ingredients for cooking for my family this Saturday again, and a little extra for my lunch today. Diced ingredients all at the ready, I began cooking the Aglio, only to find in the middle of my cooking, the gas tank ran out. Brilliant. Thankfully however, the bacon was already cooked, and there was little to finish, so I popped it into the microwave oven and it was done. (induction cookers seem pretty cool, and you don't have to rely on gas but electricity)

No kidding, but the best one I've cooked so far outta the three times, practice makes perfect. But I'd rather cook for someone else and myself too, eating alone's boring.

which brings me to a thought. Bachelor'hood'. I often look at unmarried teachers ( or anyone for that matter) and wonder what life is like for them. Who they live with can really change a person. Their parents? (unlikely at that age, but not something I'd dismiss), a room mate? Or worse, alone. To go to an empty house everyday may have its perks of privacy and not having to put up with the shortcomings of someone else living in it, but in the long term, sounds dreary doesn't it?

Sure, upkeep is less too, and the place is more spacious, but to keep to oneself all day cooped up, it's not really healthy for social well being is it? Having a family but not conversing much with them still seems better than no one at home.

I hope I can settle down early, heh, living a life where nights are spent alone doesn't come easily to me.
