Hmm... I don't remember

My first semester at college I realized something troubling. I forget to eat unless there is a set schedule. In high school there were always specific times set aside for eating. This does not happen in college. College is a massive clusterfuck schedule wise. Because of that I would consistently miss meals or just forget to eat.

After I graduated I figured it would be easier to make time for meals. Which is true, but I did not realize that I would still forget to eat. Although that isn't strictly what happens. Normally I go through all the cupboards, stare into the fridge, then the freezer and decided I don't feel like making anything because it takes so much time. I repeat that entire process looking for something I can make in less time. Ultimately I end up staring at the popsicles in the freezer and thinking "eating a popsicle will raise my blood sugar which will give me more energy so then I can actually cook something."

Which is true. Only not at all. What ends up happening: I totally forget I was hungry. Or I get distracted and start working on something else entirely. A few hours pass before I even remember I was hungry, then the whole process starts all over. And all that leads to me feeling starved by the end of the day. I basically eat one meal a day and about three or four popsicles. It's so healthy...

  1. Mmm... popsicles. Yeah, I still do this, and it's not like I'm busy doing productive things. "Oh. It's 11. I should probably eat supper."
