This Demigod of Chopsticks

Three days before I first met my boyfriend, I attended a seminar in CPU (coincidentally, his alma mater) where I learned supposedly how to balance my life and my work. I expected it to change my life. After all, I was living a hectic lifestyle of a single woman who is teaching and studying at the same time. I was a tad disappointed though. It did teach us how to balance the checkbook and budget the time for work and family, but it would have been nice if they taught us how to balance our emotions. Yes, they should have included that as part of the topic -- "Let Your Emotions Do a Balancing Act."

Love seems to have a way of catching you off guard. The last thing I expected to do was fall in love, and swim in this torrent of strong emotions. I ended up getting drowned. And I never expected it to happen during lunch where chopsticks would play such a dramatic role.

Feast for the Eyes. Are those hearts I see in your eyes, My Love?
I bow before the Universe for sending me this demigod of chopsticks.

Sometimes, what you thought would be such a mundane activity would in fact, turn out to be the most life-changing.
