My life is full of embarrassing, interesting, and awkward moments. But I'm a strong believer that these moments just make life that much more interesting.
Today I arrived at Biomed Library after buying a meatball and rice plate at a food truck. I got settled in and then prepared to eat quickly before writing my paper when I realized that I hadn't been given an eating utensil. No fork, no spoon, not even a knife. It was quite a predicament, I wasn't sure what to do. I didn't want to leave the library because it was cold out and I had just begun to get in the zone. So I went on a search throughout the library for utensils. I went into the librarian lounge, the security room, random other rooms... and there were no utensils to be found.
So, what did I do? After strongly considering just eating the meal with my hands. (This is perfectly normal in many cultures by the way). I decided to be resourceful and used the cap of my Powerade bottle as a spoon/shovel to eat my meal. It worked decently well. Now some of you may be thinking, "Jason, why didn't you just walk 5 minutes back to the food truck or houston to get a utensil." I believe that this episode is a demonstration of my HARDCORE-ness (or my laziness).
Makes me really appreciate the simple pleasures in life, like sporks.

but your resourcefulness is quite inspiring. wonder what you would've done if it was noodles. gone and washed two pens perhaps? lOl.
grammatical error fixed.
When I first published the note, it was titled "i love the inventor of the utensils."
i guess sometimes my inner fob comes out when i'm writing my blog.
barbaric.
