Goodness gracious! Great balls of fire!

I really do love college life.
Tonight my roommate called me asking what she needed to make sushi, so I helped her and another friend of ours plan out what we would need. I brought some things from home and we lugged all the rice, seaweed and fillings to the dorm kitchen. After some straightening up, we started cooking our rice and sat on the floor singing Smashmouth songs. About fifteen people stopped by to chat and ask what we were making. I think we impressed them with our sushi skills. We spread the rice onto our seaweed paper, and rolled the delicious fillings into the center of our sushi. The knife we used was in poor condition, so our sushi pieces looked more like ovals than circles, but they still tasted just a good! We cleaned the kitchen, went back up to our room and sat on my zebra-print rug with plastic plates, stolen chopsticks and duck sauce. We took off our shoes for the occasion(feeling like we should act asian). Then...we ate as much as we could hold and still had two pieces to spare. Glorious. That morphed into a two hour long conversation about Germany and culture. Sushi, culture, music and friends. I'd say today was pretty amazing.
