Breakfast, Lunch and Supper

Yesterday my parents and I went out to Strasbourg for breakfast with some super great friends. They had pancakes, blueberries and bacon while I watched them only drinking water. For lunch we went to the farm and I got to eat, there was rice and many other things I would have loved to stuff my face with but I didn’t since it was my second last day! By supper time we were still at the farm so we stayed for supper as well. Then I really got to eat, there was chicken, peas, carrots, potatoes and of course RICE. It was a wonderful day and it really didn’t bug me to be watching others eat good food while I was still with rice and water. Probably because I know it is coming to an end very quickly, today is my last day. Plus it’s Halloween!

During the whole day, I was being asked if I was okay watching people eat and for me it has become a reality. My family at home and friends at school eat in front of me all the time. If I hadn’t become okay with it, I most likely wouldn’t have made it all month only eating rice but since I am very stubborn and determined there was nothing else for me to do but live with it. Now that this is almost over I realize that I have become even more determined and probably a little bit more stubborn (if that’s even possible). If I am going to do something I am going to do it right and as best I can. There is a poster in one of my class rooms that says – If you have time to do it once poorly, then you have time to do it again right. That is so true for me, I don’t want to do something not to the best of my ability then have to go back and do it over again. (Mum please realize I am not talking about vacuuming or unloading the dish washer right now)For the amount of time it took me to do something poorly, it would have taken me the same amount of time to do it right the first time. That is what I am going to try even harder to do now, everything right the first time so that I don’t disappoint anyone else but really so that I don’t disappoint myself most. I haven’t disappointed myself with this adventure, I am very proud of myself for going a whole month only on rice. Not many people I live around could say they have done that.
