This morning I woke up, but I didn't feel that good. When I got outside and got on the bus, I felt much better.

Long assignments that take longer for me to do than the other students in my class to do.

A little bit of pain everywhere.

The Italians and Spanish, the Chinese and Vietnamese see food as part of a larger, more essential and pleasurable part of daily life. Not as an experience to be collected or bragged about - or as a ritual like filling up a car - but as something else that gives pleasure, like sex or music, or a good nap in the afternoon.

This was amazing! This was more than I ever imagined the Opening Ceremonies to be. It's greater than portrayed on television.
