lara,
im really sorry to hear about what happened. personally though, i dont think you did anything wrong. the only reason you were taking that stuff in bags is because you cant eat in front of people... not beause you were trying to steal from the cafeteria (which, may i add, many people do even after eating thier fill while in the dining hall. myself included, i have taken fruit to go many times) and anyways, so what!?!? i figure, we are paying exorbatent amts of money to go to these schools the least they could do was let us eat/take what we want. i think your motives were very pure and it's not your problem if other people dont understand your situation... also, i think its awesome that you do that program to bring the extra food to those who need it. i say if anyone gives you crap about it, and you feel pressure to explain yourself, just tell them the truth: that you cant eat in front of people and weren't trying to do any harm. also, stick with the group!! quitting would only make you look like you are guilty of something, which you're not. you are a really great girl who deserve lots of happiness and only good things; i can tell!!!
tomorrow will be a better day.
xoxo
