Guest guest Posted July 22, 2005 Report Share Posted July 22, 2005 I had a grill out with some friends tonight and I, being the only vegetarian had some curry pinepple tofu filets while everyone else hat various meat or poultry. I didn't make any comments though there were many comments from others that left things wide open where I could have. But my tofu filets came in packages of two and I was only eating one...and a girl next to me decided she didn't like her dish after a bite and I offered my other tofu filet. So she had it grilled up and decided she thought it was good! So that was a positive experience for me. I felt I had shared food that she normally would not have tried and she ended up liking it even over her other grilled meat. I'm glad I didn't make any comments because I had a really great night, especially considering I probably won't be seeing most of my friends again and I was glad that I could eat with them and be able to share in their company and friendship. Just in a happy mood and wanted to share. -Katie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted July 22, 2005 Report Share Posted July 22, 2005 That's really cool, Katie! how are you doing with the packing, and the idea that you'll be leaving?? ~~~ disregard that question if it does anything to lessen that feeling of happiness you are having, because happy is a good thing to be! =) peace, Jenni Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted July 22, 2005 Report Share Posted July 22, 2005 That's wonderful, Katie. That was so kind of you to share your food (and your way of life) and it sounds like you had a wonderful time. Kudos to you! S.

Guest guest Posted July 23, 2005 Report Share Posted July 23, 2005 I am doing ok with packing. Some stuff I cant pack until the day before the flight due to either needing them or else cleaning in preparation for my room inspection on the same day. I'm definitely packing my suitcase/duffel to the brim but I think I'll pass the weight limits. Luckily I only have to lug them all around two airports. The idea that I'm leaving makes me very sad as you can probably guess but I try to keep my chin up (as Charlotte the spider says) and think about all of the things I have learned and am taking with me from the experiences here and how while I'm leaving Germany, I'm not leaving German since I'll be still reading books and talking to people in German and in a year going to grad school to teach it. And while I probably wont have the money to come back soon I am planning on coming back to visit probably after grad school is done. So overall although its sad I'm trying to make it a really positive thing, because it is. Still on the high from last nights happiness so nothings phasing me much right now heh. -Katie , Jenni Billings <jenni@b...> wrote: > That's really cool, Katie! > > how are you doing with the packing, and the idea that you'll be > leaving?? > ~~~ disregard that question if it does anything to lessen that feeling > of happiness you are having, because happy is a good thing to be! =) > > peace, > Jenni Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember thinking the same thing after our years in Germany... it will be interesting to see what things no longer live up to your memory of them =) That happened to me with a few things... thankfully! Boy I CRAVED Taco Bell when we lived there..and at the time there was none , at least, none near us... I no longer crave it! haha =) On Saturday, July 23, 2005, at 03:35 AM, budgiegirl2003 wrote: > Mmmm Kudos, I havent had those in forever.
