Hi to all! Yes I do! I wonder why it became habitual to me to eat candy when I'm bored in class or meeting or even when I'm traveling for long hours..it's sort of anti sleeping and boredom for me..
How about you? When do you usually pop candy or mint???
Thanks and Happy mylotting to all

Hello khaezi! well i love to eat candies when im bored and specially during travel, candies allow me to fight my boredom due to a very long road trip or when there is traffic.
I guess candies have a simple secret of redirecting our attention to its taste and texture that's why we temporarily forgot our boredom wherever we may be. Thanks and good day!

Hello khaezi!..me too I eat candy when I'm bored whether I'm in or out of my house. It gives sugar that makes me feel alive and energetic..Have a nice day..=)

i usually do it. i guess i adapted it from my friends. i don't really bring candy with me. so when i'm bored i ask around for candies. my friends usually have some. :)

Yep! I also eat candy when I'm bored in class. But, when I am travelling, I don't usually eat candy.

yes,i remembered when i was in college i really loved to eat candy from travelling from home to university.because its too far away.i'm travelling 2 hrs from home to university.it takes longer sometimes when there's traffic.so hard to be a student back then.so to fight boredom and dizziness i took candy mint.to fight stress also because of traffi.sometimes having candy in your mouth brings you happiness.think of possibilities more than anger/stress.a way of motivating sometimes,i guess.think of positive sides than of negativities of what's happening around you.

Hi,
I also do the same thing. Whenever I travel and go to the groceries to buy things I will bring I don't forget to include candies or mints. I also bring candies and mints in the office to keep me busy when I feel bored and sleepy.
As I have noticed I'm not the only one who have this habit. Almost everyone I know do the same thing. Sometimes when I'm with someone on a travel we would tell each other not to forget bringing candies or mints.
