Well, it’s the last week of classes and Mansour and I have
decided to fit another meeting in. Instead of meeting outside of 1873, we chose
to venture inside and eat, because he had wanted to eat there.
This got us
on the topic of food. He got a bacon cheeseburger, which is not something
regularly eaten in Saudi Arabia. He started to describe the foods that are
normally consumed in his home country, which consists mostly of lamb, chicken,
and falafel. It didn’t sound too bad to me at all, but I’m not sure if I could
handle the lack of variety.
There have
been some really big Champions League soccer games as of late, so we spent
about 20 minutes talking about those and who would win the upcoming final
between Bayern Munich and Chelsea. I said Chelsea, because Bayern always chokes
and Chelsea only performs during tournament play. He said Bayern because they
are a more skilled team. Agree to disagree, I guess.
Well, this
was also another short conversation that consisted solely of talking about food
and soccer. Sounds like a man talk to me. I wish I had more to write about, but
I think Mansour is happy we are only meeting one more time.
