Pick-Me-Up Snacks

I don't really bother with energy drinks... I never feel the buzz! I was never into coffee, and I don't want to start making a habit of drinking it either. [although I'm starting to like the taste of it]

During school, High school that is. My schedule was pretty tight, but I still managed to have a pretty perfect food schedule. If I can make breakfast, I'd eat the usual cereal but if I couldn't I just waited until lunch which was like around 12ish to eat my food. Worst days was when I didn't bring anything, and had to leech off of my friends... which isnt as good as it sounds because our school's food SUCKED.

I'm starting college real soon, like the 28th. And I need to figure out what to do with my eating habits as well. It's like $2000 for the mealplan which is a ripoff considering my room will have a kitchen, so I don't know what to do about that. I'll be living in NYC though, so there's bound to be good places nearby. I'll try to stay away from the expensive restaurants though, I just need to find a nice chicken & rice stand or something nearby, but since that'll take time I sitll need to figure out what to do in the dorm.

For snacks, I usually take a banana [quick and easy], or an apple [i love them], but for more of the munching type foods I go for triscuits [garden herb is the SHIT] and nuts [planters mixed nuts low sodium... the SHIT]. Sometimes I can't help but eat Social Tea crackers which look absolutely bland as hell but kick ass nonetheless.

My energy level is usually good and I usually just rough it out without relying too much on the promises of food. But the real problems are when I dont' eat for a while and I just get a blinding headache. That's when I know I just need to eat something... QUICK, so I just try to make some ramen or some good meal that's filling.

Jam it back in, in the dark.
