We've all had those days. For some, it's sleeping through an alarm. For others, it's getting a parking ticket the minute the meter ticks down to zero. For me, it's getting locked out of my room.
Yep. My lock stopped working. My phone was in my room. My phone, guys. That's a big deal. But not to worry, maintenance fixed it.
And this was after an awesome weekend too.
Every time I go home for the weekend, I feel like I gain the "Freshman 15." I don't pig out at school. Honest. But when I go home...
No more than twenty minutes after walking in the door, my pizza rolls were in the microwave waiting to be eaten. I enjoyed barbecue, Mexican food...
While I was eating my leftover chimichanga for lunch in my dorm room today, I came to the realization that I can actually eat well at school. Case in point: the vegetable crudités I purchased in the cafeteria to eat alongside the aforementioned chimichanga. It felt like a veggie cleanse after all the delicious junk I ate over the weekend.
I love being at home, but there's not a buffet-like plethora of über-healthy options to pick from. I wish there were, but it just isn't realistic to have edamame and bell peppers and carrots and celery and pineapple and spring mix lettuce and vegan beans and rice and veggie patties. Not everyone in our house eats like that. Plus, it's the beginning of March, for crying out loud.
Where are the farmer's markets?!?
I can't wait for warm weather just because of those farmer's markets. I have good intentions to binge on vegetation as soon as good produce becomes available. But until then, I'm stuck eating from the cafeteria. Which, as I'm finding out, isn't necessarily so bad.
