Meeting Happenings- Over Cups of Tea by Coumbah

(Note: We are so so sorry for the delay of this post! New updates will be up very soon!)

1/24/14

Hey this is Coumbah and I'm going to talk about the last meeting!

Food

Selina brought dinner for this meeting. We had potstickers, fried rice, and this soup called Sour and spicy soup and, like the name suggests, it was delicious! For dessert, she brought a nice fruit salad. Unfortuntally she didn't get to bring the usual "Selina Surprise". 

(For those of you who don't know, Selina usually brings something special and weird whenever it's her turn to bring dinner. Over the course of the years, we've had the privilege of getting to eat: pig ears, chicken feet, fish heads, chicken hearts, even pig's blood, and much much more!) However, she did promise a very special surprise next time around. ;) Look forward to it!

 

Meeting

Facebook

 At the Girl Scout meeting we decided to make two Facebook group pages, one for our Iceland Group and a separate one for our England group. We thought this would be an easy way for us to communicate faster with each group by direct messages and pictures; also we could talk to each other whenever we wanted and wouldn't have to wait for an email. I can't wait for that to get started! 

Iceland and England Team

The major discussions really at the troop meeting  was locking down the places that we can stay. We decided that for England, we would draft an email with our questions to the our England correspondence/sister troop. We are still waiting for correspondence from the Iceland troop too.

Themed Trip

We decided to come up with a theme or a project that we could do while on our trip. After discusing a bit on what we thought was important to our troop, we decided that we all loved the outdoors, meeting new people, and learning new cultures and points of view. We are forming a project as I write. I won't give any spoilers yet but it is very interesting! All I'll say is that it may have something to do with the Girl Scout law!

All in all the meeting was pretty basic, we laughed and discussed over cups of tea and it was nice to loosen up a bit with my friends!

Look forward to our next post! :)
