Phenomenal Achievement

Well, Okay... It's not all that phenomenal. In fact, it's downright rinky-dink by most people's standards. But to me, it's a major accomplishment.

I ate a full Vietnamese meal with chopsticks! This is a feat never before accomplished by l'il ol' me! Usually I make a concerted effort, but then give up about half-way and get myself a fork. But today I used chopsticks all the way down to the last morsel!

It was such a monumentous occasion that it even warranted snapping a picture! (Photo courtesy of my boss...)

Congratulations!
Hint: do as the natives do and order a bowl with your chopsticks, and shovel when you feel the urge.

I stand in awe of you! The most I can accomplish eating before switching to a fork is about 1/3 to 1/2 of my meal.

I agree, it is a major accomplishment. Just when I thought I was getting the hang of chopsticks, I lost all I thought I knew about them.

Good job!
