Hi, I owe you an apology. I didn’t follow through on my promise. I stopped writing this newsletter as well. Nevertheless, I am back! I hope this post (and podcast episode) is enough to make it up to you. My college life is slowly coming to an end and I’ve been thinking a lot about what it was like. I decided to write and make a podcast episode about it. This is a part of my Time Capsule series. A series where I record episodes with the intention of revisiting them again in the future.
It is very true that food is the cornerstone of friendships. I, for instance only buy food for my closest friends. These rituals become even more important and sacred when living in hostel and/or a flat. The implicit trust you have on others that whenever there will be something good to eat, it will be eaten together is almost a sacred promise. The late night ordering and bickering has been one of the most important parts of my college journey. I look forward to days when I'll again be able to order in super unhealthy food at 3 am in the night and have an 8 am to attend the next day. Very well written! Looking forward to listening the podcast too :)
