Getting Ready for Egypt

So the administration told us that the students basically have a 99% chance of getting really sick while in Egypt. We can't drink any of the tap water there and we can't touch any uncooked food like fruit. Since I am getting over being sick and don't want to get worse, I decided to take the food matters into my own hands. I bought two boxes of granola bars which will hopefully last me the week. Also, tonight at dinner, I made a few extra peanut butter and jelly pita's and smuggled them out of the cafeteria. I'm thinking those will last me at least  day or so, unless I get really hungry on the 6 hour bus tomorrow.
