MSJMCW

I walk out of my quiet classroom toward the buzzing of the horseshoe. It's filled with different alluring scents and fragments of conversations I'll never know the end to. I hand my ticket to the friendly face behind the stand and they trade it for a plate full of fragrant sustenance. As I take my first bite, my mouth is filled with an explosion of flavor that entices the images of fireworks and paintings you may only see in museums, behind my eyelids. I walk around and observe the commotion surrounding each booth and recognize the hard work that goes into this production each year. The blending of different cultures and the acceptance of each of them comes without a thought when there's food involved. Food carries no prejudices and it helps bring people together, that's what multicultural week does, it brings people together.
