Food Journal

Last night, I was a bit tardy for my afterschool club at another school because an old friend called me up. I didn't want to rush her because she was talking about her college process and asking me to help her decide between two schools. Well I got a drink with her before the class, which had condensed milk, ice, and grass root jelly. I never had it before. At first I liked it but afterwards it was too sweet. Walking with her and her friend, we passed by a place called Cup and Saucers (the owner is really nice) I go there to buy smoothies and he gave me a free glazed donut the last time I went. I waved enthusiastically at him as I passed and he waved back the same way. (He really is a very sweet person). I'm going to go in and ask how he's doing next time.

Afterwards for dinner I ate a large serving of pasta, with tomatoes, basil, and fresh mozarella. My mom cooked it for 20 minutes. I liked how the mozarella tasted because it tasted like it was fresh. I got more basil and tomatoes because I'm trying to eat more vegetables. I ate it with my mom and brother and my mom talked about summer college classes and asked if I had turned in the form yet (its due a month from now). My little brother was on the computer (an arm's length away). After eating it I felt sleepy and went to sleep because pasta is so heavy. Usually in the spring I want to eat lighter foods. I fell asleep around 9:30 and woke at 5:30 and finished my hw.

I felt really hungry afterwards so I searched through the fridge and found a ham and cheese sandwich and ate it. I was really thristy. I ended up going to the cafeteria and buying water after english was over. That was in the morning around 10:00. I was kind of hungry but I didn't want to eat the cafeteria food. After classes when it came lunchtime I went to the cafeteria and ate 6 meatballs, had 7 pieces of garlic bread(Bao lin didn't feel like eating, and Na lin gave me 1 too), and drank milk. Dinorah offered me her fries..but I have an aversion to the cafeteria fries because they're so limp and soggy and partially I think because I relate them to a story I heard about McDonald's fries; so I politely declined...I may not have been in the mood for the cafeteria food today BUT the cafeteria lady is reallly nice because she always gives me extra tuna and sometimes even seconds. Yay me! Well I think I like people who give me food. I like people who like me, or are at least decent people, which I guess are most people I know. After school I sat on a bench in front of Baruch and took a 10 minute nap because the breeze was really good and my brain felt kind of tired. It was from 3:13-3:23. I planned on taking a 20 minute nap but I didn't want to be late for class which was at 4:10. I may have taken a nap because of the meatballs, or maybe the pasta made me sleep too early and I didn't sleep too well as a result. When I got to the 13th floor there was no one there it was empty, which was strange because there were usually more people. I drank my water and continued my nap. Around 5 minutes later Leon, one of my classmates came up, and asked if I was sleeping I replied yes. But decided not to nap and go over my notes for the debate. My groupmates were pretty good at BSing, which I wish I was. They have notes too, but made up this one statistic. I can't lie, or rather I can't lie well even if I did try, so I choose not to. Well Annie came up a few minutes after Leon and she had her usual Mocha Frap and offered me some. I took it because I wanted some caffine before the debate so I'd be awake. She also gave me two bags of chips that she "stole" from her school. I think she probably got it for free at lunch. I ate one bag. The caffine was a pretty bad idea because it made me really jittery before my debate. I was actually shaking. Not noticably but I couldn't stop moving. I'm not too great at public speaking probably because the anticipation of speaking makes it worse when I actually speak. I was 4th in my group to present our argument out of the 5 people there. I was I think not that clear. Which was really bad because I actually had decent arguments...and my brain shortcircuits when its time to give them. For the rebuttal I was clear and said a good argument against my teacher's comment (the caffine affect probably died down alittle). Next time, no caffine...I'll risk drowsiness but I think caffine makes me way too hyped up especially when I'm sitting down. I think caffine and nervousness is a bad combo for me. Especially when I wasn't all that nervous beforehand, it seemed to amp it up.

Okay, so now its dinner time. My mom's going to school around dinnertime, so its leftovers. Someone from Florida visited on Sunday and there were alot of leftovers from the dinner. Its fish, vegetables, and rice, cantonese food. Yay? I think there's so much leftovers because the food wasn't that great. Its 7:03 right now. That's the end of it. Cheers.
