Welcome to Brown Rice

Will and I had a dinner party at our place last night. This is what we served:

Pre-meal fare: Morrocan Red Bean Dip
Creamy Spinach Dip
Will's famous homemade Pita Chips

First Course: Stuffed Eggplant Croquettes
Second Course: Sautéed Zucchini and Feta Crostini
Third Course: Corn and Capsicum Cakes
Fourth Course: Pumpkin, Feta and Spinach Parcels
Fifth Course: Broccoli and Ricotta Roulade

Dessert: White chocolate M&M Oatmeal Cookies

How long did it take to make all of this food you ask? Well, we started cooking at 2:30pm and finished at 6:30 on the dot. Cooking is so great. Will said he'd hire me as the caterer for BRIDGE (his student association/club), but the said that's probably illegal because "he'd be helping out a friend". Someday I'll be a caterer or a restaurant owner. I'll add that to the list of things I'm meant to do with my life.

Word is...1/3 of the way into my Translation Studies degree...I no longer know if I'm meant to be a translator. I want to be. But I also want to be something else. I think I'm meant to be an ESL teacher now. I think.

Who knew growing up was so hard! And full of all of these choices! I thought growing up had a set plan I was to follow:

Be born. Go to highschool. [Maybe go to college.] Graduate. Get a job. Work. Get married. Have kids. Be a grandparent. Die.

But life wouldn't be worth living if it was that simple now would it?
