Finals are tough. Maintaining a happy, healthy diet might be even tougher. One Bwogger shares her field food notes from the week.
MONDAY
8am: Last night’s halal still stuffed to esophagus. Room only for coffee and disgust and Russian homework not completed.
11am: Feeling hopeful. Maybe will eat a vegetable today. Granola bar for now.
3pm: You know, have been rather productive today. Perhaps deserve shameful but tasty peppermint mocha.
4pm: Mocha turned into mocha + cake pop + weird quiche thing. Perhaps will be “adult” and will be so engrossed in work that forget to eat.
5pm: Still in NoCo. Is it dinner yet.
6pm: OK nope, must get sustenance. HamDel? HamDel.
7pm: Lewinsky. Meant to save second half for din tomorrow. Yummy AND economical. Alas.
11pm: Roommate bought snacks. Skittles healthy, methinks.
TUESDAY

11am: How 11am and have only perused Facebook and Tumblr?? Must go to Butler.
12pm: ButCaf. Mango guava cheesecake better than expected.
3pm: Study break = MoWil. Pint of Chunky Monkey. You are what you eat, it seems.

@Anonymous So this is Christmas, and what have you done?
@first gen So this is what life is like when you can afford to constantly eat outside of dining halls
(forreal tho how much $$ this person spendin on food every week?)
@Anonymous yah for real.
(screw the kind of person who eats their roommates food. Especially when they try to justify it by saying you can eat theirs sometimes too. Like screw you it’s not like I can make a meal of your pudding cup snacks, so don’t eat the things I careful budget out money for).
@Yavneh So this is what life is like when you don’t wait six hours between meat and milk….
