A Saturday to Remember with Ms. Gala

Today, I had the pleasure of going to Manhattan and eating delicious Indian food with my best friend Kinyanna, Ms. Gala, and her brother. The food was delectable and very different from what I was accustomed to. It was initially a bit uncomfortable to eat most of the food with my hands, but after a while, I forgot about it and just enjoyed the food. Since neither Kinyanna or I had ever really explored Indian food, Ms. Gala and her brother expertly chose a few dishes that they thought were good and I have to say they did an amazing job. I thought all of the food was delicious and unlike anything I had ever tasted. Kinyanna and I thought that it was hilarious that there was a breakfast dish that resembled a doughnut. We tasted it and it was the opposite of sweet; savory, actually. There was a mango shake that Ms. Gala recommended that was like eating the best mango yogurt ever made and was perfect for cooling my mouth when the food got just a little too spicy. Our conversations were very interesting as well, varying from both the good and bad books we have read for school in the past years to how Kevin Ozoria's title should be "The only boy you could date who would get your parent's approval." Needless to say, I am glad that I chose to raise my paddle in the auction for this trip. Not only was the food a taste to remember forever, the time I spent with my best friend, Algebra teacher, and her brother was perfect for a day where I would have most likely done absolutely nothing at home. Thank you Ms. Gala for:
  1. An awesome opportunity to try something new and get to know you better
  2. Letting your brother invite himself
  3. Allowing me a chance to get to know you better
This is definitely something I wouldn't mind doing again (including the food of course).
