Becca's Declassified College Survival Guide

Tip #265: You are what you eat. 

In order to procure a successful study abroad experience--or just about any good experience at all in the college life--it is essential to keep a balanced diet. To most collegiates that means plenty of Ramen noodles, Easy mac, or Chef Boyardee. In essance, anything that comes quick and easy out of a tin can. No assembly required.

In Germany that can mean Döner, a delicious sandwich-type material out of a Turkish Kebab joint, which is made by cutting paper-thin portions of meat off of a giant stick, frozen pizza because you can buy three in a pack for about a euro, or lots and lots of cereal.

Some kids even opt for easier more obtainable methods....


Everyone meet Sean. He's also from Michigan and has been in Germany studying for a while now. Longer than me. I'm not sure if it's a rendition of the proverb 'with age comes wisdom' but there he is eating frosting on noodles. The frosting, sent to him by his mom, is Pilsbury white frosting or something like that, and the noodles, uncooked. What was that about you can't choose your relatives but at least your friends?

Aw, man...

These pictures weren't posed. If you don't believe me that he is physically eating the uncooked noodles slathered in frosting...



Stayed tuned for more hints and tips! This was only part one of a two part post.

Mostly I just needed to get another blog entry up before a week had past and everyone assumed I'd kicked the blogging habit.
