If you’ve been keeping up with me for a while, you’ll know I’ve been on the quest of trying to find something healthy/refreshing to eat when I start feeling like it’s time to take a nap halfway through a morning lecture. 

Previously, I essentially ate 3-4 oranges a day before realizing that over dose on healthy life is not the way to stay awake halfway through a lecture [ if you’re interested, you can read the post I did on that here] After going to Target, I came across Tic-Tacs. Now, I remember just taking a few and my breath being fresher than fresh water wayy back when tic-tacs were THE THING. So I thought why not give it a try when I feel sleepy?

I did this for about a week and essentially what would happen was I would be ready for success once I took a tic tac, but then five minutes later crash. I should probably state I ate about 3 at a time because I felt that having 1 was like .1 seconds of freshness and I wanted more freshness than that so thought to just take 3 at a time. #thatlogic

Looking at the ingredients on the back, it contains 0 grams of sugar [doing more research it actually contains 0.5g of sugar] .

By taking three every single time I felt tired in a lecture, I was essentially eating sugar. And everyone knows, if you have sugar you’ll just be on a sugar high roller coaster that only goes up The Fault in Our Stars style for a little bit before coming back down to earth extremely sleepy and wishing your professor had a snooze button.

Lesson learned: Tic-Tacs + Morning Lecture = ABORT ABORT ABORT

PS. I found this funny: So on the back of the tic-tac box

but then on the top side it said

Everyone needs water to drink. Whether you prefer drinks that contain enough sugar to sweeten tea for all of Great Britain, you end up coming back to water because someone on your social media is a healthy human being and you think to yourself well it can't be THAT hard.

In my math class, I sit next to a sink and for the past few times I've had class, the sink is always going drip drip drip. Now, the logical thing for me to do is walk up and shut it tightly before class and then take my seat, but I don't have the luxury of a few extra minutes due to racing from class to class. Every time I see this water drip throughout the class, I wonder to myself: If I were to put a large container there for the hour and a half that I sit here for, will it be full? Probably. Here we are wasting tap water like it's nothing meanwhile it could be the difference of life and death for someone else.

I have to admit, when I went to shut it off after class, I was expecting an easy twist of it, but the sink was literally like TRY A LIL HARDER IF YOU WANNA SHUT ME DOWN XOXO and after a while I managed to shut it as tightly as I could- with a broken plastic led pencil in the hand I used to shut it with. It was dripping a little, but not as much as before. 

Water is a necessity and then here we are, letting it drip away like it is nothing. I guess as the saying goes, you don't know what you have until it's gone. I do hope that we will learn the value of water before that happens.
