Cafeteria Food
Have you ever notice how the cafeteria seems to get worse as the year goes along? At the beginning of the year the food in the cafeteria is not too bad. When I first went to the dinning hall I wondered why everyone complained about the cafeteria food, because at the beginning of the year the food was not too bad. I thought, at the beginning of the year, that I could definitely last on cafeteria food for the rest of the academic year. Then the months came and went and so did the good food.
When Christmas break came I was so happy to go home and get “real food.” By that time I did not think I could eat any more cafeteria food. I would have rather skipped a meal then have to go and eat another meal at the cafeteria. “Real food” is now what I call any food that is not made in the cafeteria. I know some people would think that it is crazy that I would rather skip a meal instead of eating something. Why didn’t I just eat a salad or bagel? Well I had been eating salads and bagels for about two weeks by the time it came to Christmas break.
Then after Christmas break I thought I could last till the end of the year on cafeteria food, but I was wrong. By the time spring break came around it was the same as Christmas break. I did not want to eat anything that came out of the cafeteria. I was so sick of salads, French fries, bagels, and sandwiches. I was extremely excited to go home for spring break and get some more “real food.”
Now the end of the academic year is coming to a close and I am very excited to go home and have a whole summer of “real food.”
