Study Food (Warning: This is Full of Food Post)

Yes, it's that time again. Mega exam on Wednesday. How heartless, the day before Thanksgiving! Studying my butt off and not eating much. I feel like all I ever write about is how I study all the time. Which I do basically, so it comes as no surprise when I think about it.

K was out of study candy and had to break open the Girl Scout Thin Mints this evening. I am pretty sure she has eaten a whole sleeve so far, but she has been in her room studying all day, so I can't be sure. She also downs Diet Pepsi like it's water and she is a camel going on a trek through the desert. She must go through a two-liter bottle every day almost. That can't be healthy. I know it's not regular Pepsi, but still, diet sodas have so many chemicals and other shite that make them taste like something. She also had a box of Kraft Craparoni and Cheese for dinner as well. That's 1000 calories alone! I want to barf thinking about it.

I was on Facebook earlier, and one of my friends from school had this as her status, with comments to follow:

S is stress eating so she's living on sour gummy watermelons from Wegmans. Husband just restocked my supply with 3 lbs and I will probably be out by the end of the weekend. Ugh, I'm so ready to be done with school!
K (roomie): Jealous. Can husband bring some here? :-P
K (not roomie): that's why there weren't any the last time I was there!! I had to go with the grapefruits...sadly they're all gone now :(
N: ooh the grapefruit wedges are awesome.
K (not roomie): I just bought 2 bags of sour cream and onion potato chips (it was buy one get one free), a large bag of m&ms, and twizzlers at tops... I told the cashier not to judge me, it was study food
S: haha! no, they had just restocked it when he got them ... they were all out we went last time too so in my attempt to scrape some up I ended up with half a bag of the sugar that was left on the bottom. I will have to keep the grapefruit in mind!
K (not roomie): agreed! except I usually like a little fruit salad...grapefruit and watermelon! And not so good when you eat too many and get a tummy ache and burn off the top layers of your tongue...wait nevermind...still good!
A: I prefer tootsie roll pops (raspberry) and jelly bellys!
K (not roomie): man...now I want to go to weggies and get more candy! I'm all out hehe! K-love the comment to the cashier, I think they always judge my weird purchases!
A: I want to go and get sushi and candy
K (not roomie): how about chocolate covered pretzels?? yummmm
S: Ooooh sushi. I have not had it in so long. Like the pretzels, what about chocolate covered raisins! Then they are somewhat healthy and I don't feel so guilty.
A: I like the dark chocolate covered ginger that weggie's has

OMG! This grosses me out. (And I know a lot of people with the first name beginning with K). I was reading this with disbelief. I wouldn't even eat this much food normally. I had to post this for all of you, because I know you will appreciate this as much as I do. Now I know why people say they always gain so much weight around exams!

My dad called me today, and the last thing he asked was if I had eaten dinner. I said no, and he said "Well, eat.... something!" I just said "Well, obviously" to brush it off. But really, it was only 5:50pm. Normal people don't eat until 6 or 6:30. When I am home, we don't eat dinner until around 7, so why the interrogation? I know he only does it because he cares, and because he knows I don't eat when I am stressed, but it's so annoying! Get off my back!

Random: I got these gummi calcium bears. No matter how much I stare at the bottle of Caltrate in the bathroom cupboard as I brush my teeth, I can't get myself to take them. So I got these gummi bears. They are made for little kids, but adults can just as well take them. They have 15 calories for two bears, which gives you 20% of your daily recommended calcium. So I have three a day, and have other things that have calcium in them as well, like calcium enriched OJ, broccoli, and yogurt. I usually make it to 100% of my required calcium now that I am taking these things. 22.5 calories is a small price to pay to get myself to take calcium.

My brother turns 18 tomorrow. Crazy. I still think of him as the little boy I would put Band-aids on to fix his boo-boos. Now he is applying to colleges... Anyway.

Love you, Skinnies!
