i like em all!

im not sure if it's normal to crave for certain food, but tis craving of mine has not ended. some facts about myself and sushi; my first attempt was when i was still schooling (15?) and it was definitely not love at first bite because i tot it tasted horrible coz i could smell the seaweed in my throat which actually makes me feel like vomiting. since then, the only sensible thing to do was to stay away rite? and yeah, dats what i did until recently.

at a business dinner a few months back, after some drinks the client insisted we have dinner with them at a Jap restaurant. the moment i heard that, i was petrified because in my mind i had imagined throwing up in front of all these gentlemen. since i was left with no choice, i tagged along and they did all the ordering and when the food arrived, i hesitated. i'm with no bunch of friends u see, so i could not put something in my mouth and take it out if i dont like how it tastes like so i told myself i had to prepare the mind. at the end of the night, dinner turned out to be nice (not good, just nice). and yeah, i made it through a round of Jap food after more than a decade.

quite recently, i had the strongest urge to buy a piece of sushi at a supermarket because i remember my bf some time ago used to buy from here; the tuna mayo sushi. since i was with my sister at that time, we both took one each, accompanied by tako tao. when we got home, we finished the tako tao and braced ourself for a piece of sushi we had bought earlier. first bite into it, i was surprised at how tasty (and not disgusting) the sushi tasted. from then on, i was stuck.

so last nite after dinner, i was talking to my brother about a couple of stuffs and suddenly the sushi topic popped out. he, coincidently like 10 years ago had his first taste of sushi and felt like vomiting, just like myself. however, over the weekend he went out with his fiance and dined at sushi king and didnt have trouble downing it at all! i find it rather funny, maybe back then seaweed was taken from some contaminated sea, who knows...
