In addition to it being the holiday season, it also happens to be finals season for us students. On Monday, I have my last final (Advanced Nutritional Biochem—Proteins, Fats & Carbs) of the semester. I’ve been in grad school for almost 3 years with no breaks, so I’m nearing that burnout “who cares about amino acid metabolism” place.
To fuel these oh-so-exciting study sessions, I’ve been making sure to eat balanced meals while still making a little time for social activities, like catching up over drinks at Leah’s the other day. Today I have plans to see some of my lady friends. And yes, that’s champagne in that mug…
I’ve also been making time for exercise and yoga to balance out the, um, mugs of champagne. Cleaning also seems to be a good study break. My apartment is freaking sparkling right now.
Since my internship doesn’t start until late February, I am looking forward to two glorious months off from school. I still have to work, but I will take that over work plus papers and exams any day!
It’s kind of crazy to think that this time next week, it’ll be Christmas Eve. I think I’m ready…
gah! I feel the same way in that I’m just a little over memorizing vitamins and corresponding enzymes. Can’t wait until Monday night and I’m done too! Good luck with PFC! 🙂
Good luck to you too!
Woah, that sandwich looks like a bombshell of taste-buds. Yum. Has yoga been helping your mentally/physically? I always here people talking about how good it is and I wonder if it does have an impact on you, after all =)
It was delicious—Dr. Praeger’s veggie burgers make for awesome sandwiches ’cause of all the veggies in them. I think that one had hummus, eggplant, and roasted peppers too.
Yoga helps me a ton both mentally and physically. It helps clear my head and also gives me a chance to stretch out and sweat off some stress.
YOU EAT HUMMUS SANDWICHES!!?
Hello best friend. Where have you been!
So you know firsthand how amazing they are…
