Hello my friend eshaan Ji, I think, there is good old saying that, "AFETR LUNCH SLEEP A WHILE AND AFTER DINNER WALK A MILE". But it doe not fit in your case. Computers and MBLs have made everyone static, lazy. I have very bad habit of opening myself to eberyone in first attaempt. If you are interested to know more about me , you may visit our daughter at ISTYLE' in your locality. It si in ganjpura. All the best. May God bless You and have a great time.

I will not go into all my bad habits but... I'm often at the computer reading and posting while I'm eating. It seems I always want to do two things at once. Also, I'm always going to bed later than I should. I keep working at going to bed earlier but it's always later. I'll keep working on this one.

I pick my nails and I know that that is a bad habit and I fidget often because it is sometimes hard for me to sit still.

Well, I do take the vast majority of my meals at the computer and I will admit to that. However, I do try as much as possible to not eat dinner in front of the computer because I think that it is very important to share that particular meal with your entire family. That said, one of my other bad habits is that there are times that I am drawn to the computer and it does mean that it takes time away from my children.

I'm not addicted to computers in the sense that staying in front of it for the whole day, but I used to eat at the computer table. I can't concentrate on food alone during lunch or I'll feel bored and irritated. I enjoy browsing and eating at the same time especially when I'm eating alone at lunch.

Hi eshaan, my awesome situation here is quite similar as well I usually take my breakfast together sitting near to my laptop. I place it on a long table in our sitting room near to the window. We usually have our breakfast eating out earlier. Recently I prefer to eat breakfast my husband have got from the market on his way home after his morning brisk wall. As I realize that it's not healthy to keep on sitting still in front of the pc too long, I aware that health is more important I then keep myself stay away from my device after certain time like an hour or so doing some household chores. after finish typing this post I will leave for a short while to water my vegetable and flower plants in the house compound. Take care and have a nice day

I have that same bad habit of taking dinner in my bedroom slash computer room. I can plead practicality as well as pure cotten pickin' laziness though. My bedroom slash computer room is the only air conditioned room in my upstairs apartment. I am on enough medication to shame Carter's liver pill collection. We are currently suffering 90 plus temperatures here.

Hi! eshaan , your discussion caught my attention because you are like my daughter. My daughter whenever at home is always in front of the computer. On weekends, she wakes up early and start watching the movie she downloaded until late in the night. I even sleep ahead of her. When she eat she takes her food to the computer table, eat and just leave her plates and other utensils there. When she takes her snacks everything is there on top of the computer table together with other thrash.She could not even go to the kitchen to wash her plates or throw her garbage in the thrash can. The movie she watches are animes and most of the time she forgot to study her lessons. I often scold her for that but to no avail.

Hi eshaan!. You really got nerve eating near you computer, I afraid I will spill something on it. I am little clumsy sometimes. I like to eat in front of television when I had to eat alone but I prefer a companion in dining table, well chatting with your family more than watching TV.

so like few months back i lived with my friends in a different city for my job. the first thing i asked the landlady before moving in is a provision for an internet connection.i got mad when after 2 days of staying, i didn't have my internet yet. so my whole day (everyday) goes: i wake up, without washing my face or brushing my teeth yet, i turn on my laptop already. booting takes at least 2-3minutes and then i let it load and find time to finally brush and wash (in 2minutes!). then i sit to chat for 2hrs straight. take few seconds to pee, chat again, then get something to eat, then do my internet surfing. oh yeah i haven't fixed my bed yet. i'll be in front of the pc for like 7hours. i take a nap for few minutes to rest my eyes, then do my net thing for an hour before i go to work.at work, im still in front of a pc. when i get home from work, guess what? i'll be with my laptop again. i forgot to say, my laptop sleeps beside me too.i always say the internet is my bestfriend. no kidding!well i will say it is not bad but getting the stares from my room mates makes me think yeah i'm kinda weird actually and it's a bad habit.

eshan I am a terrible computer addict and specially on mylot. I do not go downstairs much except to eat my meals. I do not watch the boring junk on television so come up here and start typing my responses.I know I should socialize more with the other residents but theres only a handful I care that much about that I could socialize with anyway. course when they play bingo I do mingle then.

That is a bad habit eshaan but I guess it’s as bad as mine; I read at the table sometimes which I know is really rude. I wouldn’t do it if I had guests but when it’s just my family it is something I do quite regularly. I don’t read books as such but I will go through my mail and glance at my magazine. Having made the confession I can clearly see how impolite it is and I may have to look at putting a stop to it. If you get into typing as soon as you finished eating you must be lucky not to have to clear the table or wash the dishes!

Hmmm.., I avoid sitting immediately after eating meals.., especially if it was a heavy one.., It makes me feel bloated and uncomfortable.., So that I won't get tempted to sit in front of the computer.., I'll wash the used dishes first and clean the table before I go back to the computer..=)
