Breakfast was at most a PB&J sandwich which by the end of the week after having flavorless meals a PB&J would be more described as “creamy peanut butter and cold sweet jelly between two slices

I could not -believe that I had traveled across the Atlantic. It was early morning when my classmates and I landed.
