I've always wanted to start a blog. I've started four blogs, actually. When I logged in to my Blogger account, I rediscovered these blogs. I don't remember the purpose of them, just that they were made when I was thirteen and they were intended to house a lot of angst. This one, I hope, will be different.
My New Year's Resolution for 2015 is to incorporate more whole foods into my diet and live a healthier lifestyle. I love to cook and I love to eat, so the work should be fun, but there's a catch: I'm a college student living in a dorm and eating with a meal plan. The food options range from fast food restaurants to poorly supplied cafeterias to convenience store snacks. I spend most of my meals in the cafeteria. It's depressing, unsatisfying, and I pretty much dread eating there, but it's the best choice at school. The challenge will be turning these cafeteria meals into healthier, more nutritious meals; the more natural the ingredients, the better. Finding the natural food in the place will be really, really hard, but until I have an apartment with a kitchen, it'll have to do. Classes start back in about two weeks, and so will the stress, so instead of pursuing the usual bad eating habits that I think make me feel better (as in, loads of junk food that satisfy my stressed out cravings), I'll be doing my best to pursue healthy eating habits. Maybe blogging about this will make it more fun and keep me on track. I'll be posting pictures of meals, yummy sounding recipes, things I cook when I'm at home on break, and new discoveries I'm making on this food journey of mine.
And so it begins.
