dinner time

well, decided to update my blog... since quite bored.. ate dinner alone.. sis went out..parents also went out with my dad's colleagues... hmmm, morning went to je library to study with ry... reached there mins b4 lib open.. already super packed.. much more pple than usual... guess closer to exams period.. libray in high demand.... hahah..


well, ry told me tat his family don't reallie spend time to eat dinner together as a family.. cuz parents working n sometimes his siblings different timing due to tuition or school...


hmmm, for me... my mum recently just changed working place.. and from den on.. have been reaching home after 730, sometimes till 8.. the past usual timing for dinner was around 7-730... after she reaches home... have to go out for dinner, (u can't expect her to cook dinner after such a long tiring day eh? ) so by the time we start eating our food.. it would be around 8pm... which is way off from my family usual eating time... tats why i would be starving while waiting for my mum to come back... sometimes when food is served... appetite is gone...


of course there are some solutions... one of them is to order food from caterer...which my dad detest it.. cuz he dun like the food and find its veri inflexible... unable to go out for dinner on days where the family is free to go out for a dinner... otherwise waste the food... so this solution is sort of rejected...


another solution.. which sometimes we do.. is to just buy back food... and leave food our mum... but my dad would like to eat meals together as a family.. only at times when he is veri hungry.. den my sis, dad n i would just eat our dinner first...


i think in the modern society... the time spent on meals with family is getting shorter and shorter eh? sometimes i might not go home for dinner cuz school ends quite late, den just settle dinner with my classmates... i bet some of u all also don't usually spend time eating dinner with your family rite?


even if eat together... i feel tat dinner nowadays is just to fill our stomachs asap... there are much lesser communication between family members... at least this is wad i experience for my family... anyone feels the same way as i do?


i remembered last time.. when my mum would cook dinner frequently... and i always eager to know wads for dinner... as the food prepared by my mum is yummy and different... but now... i honestly... dread dinner time... sometimes reallie dun know wad to eat... all the neighbourhood's food , i have tried... and getting reall sicked of it... go to further places.. means tat i would like reach home by 9... tat means i would have much lesser time to do my stuff.... i admit tat i m a little self centered... but its like i at times do just wish to get over n done with my dinner... reallie sick of eating dinner le...
