Things I will probably do when I return

(This is Mark)
Now that I come back super soon I figured I would tell everyone those odd habits that I will probably end up picking up from my time here.

- I will probably spend lots of time in my apartment strollin' around in my djellaba, which on the one hand is awesome but on the other hand looks sort of like a KKK robe.

- I will probably obsess over American breakfasts for a while. This definitely includes things like pancakes and omelets (I will actually probably spend the time to make them) but also plain ol' oatmeal and definitely peanut butter bagels.

- I will probably obsess over American (lunch/dinner) food for a while. This includes Chinese food. Or at least American Chinese food. Also includes pizza and pasta.

- After "a while" I will probably re-enter a Moroccan food phase, where I start eating Moroccan breakfasts (milwee!) and dinners (couscous, tajines)

- I will possibly be very bad at crossing the street

- I will probably rejoice over small things, like not getting run over by motorcycles all the time

- I will certainly complain about how hard real school is

- I will run a lot, but slowly.

- I like to think I'll be more social

- I will talk a lot about improving my English. And my chess skills.

- I think that I will be more into cooking new things

- I will either be really into being clean or be really into being "clean" where "clean" is a lot cleaner than I have been and a lot less clean than is socially acceptable in America

- I will definitely complain about lack of street food

- I will definitely complain about high prices of everything in general

- I will almost certainly have nothing interesting or insightful to say about Morocco or my time there except "It was fun" and possibly telling various amusing anecdotes.


You have been warned!

  1. Now that you've said you will have nothing insightful about Morocco to say, that's all I can think about, "how do I get Mark to say something insightful?" Actually, I'm also thinking about how I hope (and will pray) that you have a safe trip back.
