2013: Don’t forget your FOOD for Friday!

Hey guys!

I hope you got my instructions today regarding our lunch on Friday. As part of our experience, we will be sharing our lunch with the residents of GK Tribu. We would love it very much if you bring food good enough for yourself and two other people. We suggest food without soups or sauces. From experience, we find that sharing grilled fish, pork liempo, and sausages (longganisa) work very well. I am leaving it to the individual classes to decide whether you will bring individually or collectively.

On the day itself, we will partake of our meals in one long table together with the residents of GK Tribu. You can share your food either boodle fight style (everything laid down and you eat with your hands) or pot luck style (food is kept in their containers and disposable plates and utensils are used).

I am giving everyone this option since things can change in the course of our activities. Know that you’ll be handling debris and dirt before lunch, so for some of us eating with our hands may not be the best idea. (There may not be enough water for us to clean our hands either.) There are also some among us who are not in the best health, and we wouldn’t want everyone to catch the bug.

Nonetheless, for those who will be comfortable enough on Friday, feel free to share a meal with everyone in the best way you can. Regardless of how you do it, all that matters is that for the time we are there, we are one with the people of GK Tribu. So I hope you’re as excited as I am. Let’s hope for great weather on Friday so all our plans push through!

  1. Thanks for the clarification, sir. However, is the decision for food sharing (whether boodle fight or potluck) is by section or by batch? [Without sauce? That reminds me about something. CHOOKS TO GO! =))))]

  2. Gab, I’ll leave it as the decision of those who are sharing the food. :) Since most arrangements will be by section, I suggest the classes make provisions for disposable plates and utensils too, just in case.
