Changing My Diet After Having The Same Foods



I am too lazy to cook for myself, and thus I usually microwavable diners such as Hungry man. They are so easy to make, and they taste pretty good. However, they can be unhealthy to have, especially every day. Furthermore, I used to drink energy drinks after I woke up in the morning. I started to get addicted because of it. Even if I didn't have caffeine for a couple of days, I would get headaches from withdrawal.

Again, it is not healthy to drink energy drinks every day even if they have no calories. After having an energy drink in the morning, I would have cinnamon toast crunch or some other kind of cereal loaded with sugar. It is so convenient, and it tastes delicious. Yet, my health will deteriorate even if I work out right before I go to bed in the long run.




I tried to replicate my diet, but instead, I tried to be healthier. Instead, I ate healthy choice microwavable meals because they were easy to make, but they provide the necessary vitamins for the day. The only downside was that they didn't taste as good as the hungry man's meals, and they didn't provide enough calories to get me through the day. Therefore, I am now eating two healthy choice meals during lunch. I also tried to cereal that I ate. I decided to eat cereal from Cascadian farms. It's still easy to make, and I think it tastes even better than the sugar-loaded cereal that I used to eat. Additionally, I drink water to wake up in the morning. It is obviously not as good as energy drinks, but I feel more alive and regenerated in the long run.



I tried to change different aspects of my diet, but I could only change some of them. For example, I still drink water and eat healthier cereal in the morning. Although, I have the hungry man meals as of late. I learned a lot from my experience, though. I learned that I should try something new during a semester or a brand new year. Whether it is small or big, it can definitely make a difference. However, ultimately I am proud of my progress so far.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Challah vs. Easter Bread: A Delicious Dilemma

Is there really such a difference in Challah bread or Easter Bread?

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
