Of frying chicken and eating pepperoni

I have been working in the Campus Dining Services for two weeks now... and the two weeks have been eventful to say the least ( when goris work with you, events are bound to happen..hmmm...). I fried chicken, made ham sandwiches and pepperoni (beef) pizzas. It was the first time that I took raw chicked pieces in my hand and put them in the pan..or picked up pepperoni pieces to sprinkle them over pizza's...never in my life had I imagined that I would be doing this stuff... It's not that they forced me to do it. I was asked whether I had any problems working with raw meat and I ( dont know why) said NO. And I was suprised that I didnt really feel much of the "what in the world am I doing" feeling. Well maybe the fact that I have started eating/tasted...chicken and ham and beef and turkey and fish... came to my rescue...

What I am surprised about is my attitude towards meat. I used to frown and swear at all my friends who ate meat, but now ( within 9 months), I have eaten more variety of meat than most of them ever have/will. And I don't have any more qualms about eating meat. Not even religious reservations. Talk about change!! However, a good thing about this whole meat story is, my mom doesn't know about it..hehe.. :-)

Coincidentally, and Ironically, I am currently listening to "Losing my Religion" by R.E.M...
