DAY 30
2/22/20
This was the 30th and final day of my consumption blog. Because I had to work so late last night & didn’t get to bed until 3am, I slept in until 10:30am. I then got up, made coffee and read my devotional then went downstairs to make breakfast. I had yogurt and blueberries. After that, I got changed and had to leave right away to make it to my chapter retreat which was at the Rec. We have one every semester and so today was the day.
For our retreat, we started off with small group discussions with our grade levels. We talked about friendship and community which I really liked. Afterwards, the rest of the retreat was a volleyball tournament. My team was called the Awkward Turtles and we all wore green. We made it to the championship game and then took second place which we were all proud of. Afterwards, some of my friends and I walked to Roti to get a late lunch. There I got a chicken salad with pita bread which was super good. We walked back and I napped for like 2 hours. I work gopher chauffeur again tonight so I’m getting homework done before then. This was a great experience blogging! Bye blog!

DAY 29
2/21/20
This was my 29th day of the consumption blog. I don’t have class on Friday mornings, so I had a sort of slow start to my day. I got up, ate breakfast and went to the gym for about 20 minutes before going to St. Paul for a meeting with my academic advisor. After that, I came back from St. Paul and finished my workout at the gym. Then I walked back to my house and ate breakfast food for lunch. Then I showered quickly and got dressed for the day.
Some friends and I decided to go to the Minneapolis Institute of Art this day. We walked around and saw this exhibit outside about immigration which was really powerful. We walked around for a few hours then left and got ice cream at MN Nice cream, this was my cone. After that, we came back to the house and I napped before I had to go work Gopher Chauffeur tonight, which was a wild night. I got to bed finally at 3:30am.

DAY 28
2/20/20
This was the 28th day of my consumption blog. My first class was canceled this morning, so I slept in until about 8:30 because I still had work to do. When I woke up, I made avocado toast for breakfast. I put sriracha and honey on them because I like spicy flavors. I then drank some coffee and watched a little TV before getting ready for the day. I left the house around 10:30 and went to work on homework at the Purple Onion Cafe. I got this almond milk latte when I was there and listened to Spotify. 
After I worked on my homework for a while, I went back home and ate a chicken salad for lunch- which was delicious. I watched some TV while I did this for a brain break. After that, I worked on more homework until it was time to leave for class in St. Paul. After class, I will be going back home and doing more homework until I go meet a friend for dinner at Chipotle. After dinner, I will be doing more homework because it was a homework heavy day. I will try to get to bed really early because I am exhausted and I work tomorrow and Saturday night this weekend.

DAY 27
2/19/20
This was my 27th day of the consumption blog. I had my early morning web design class in St. Paul per usual, I ate some greek yogurt before I went.  I haven’t worn makeup for the past week because I felt like giving my skin a break. I walked to the bus stop this morning instead of carpooling, because I wanted to get some walking time outside before I was in class all day. After my first class, I had a break where I ate lunch and watched an episode of New Girl. I ate a peanut butter and banana on a tortilla, as well as an orange and some crackers. I sent a picture of this bear to my sister to see if she wanted it for her birthday. This picture of the sun is a picture of where I sat when I ate lunch. I went to my second class and got lots of work done there as well. Afterwards, I went to the gym over on east bank because I like it better. 
Right before my workout, my AirPod battery died. I was so sad, but I still worked out and had a good time. After that, I ate a protein bar on the bus ride back to St. Paul. I did some homework when I got there, and then I went to my third and final class. After that class, my friend Grace drove me back to east bank.  I walked to Target before I went back to my house and I got some groceries. I walked my groceries back and made it just in time for dinner at the house, it was gnocchi. I had about an hour to lay down before I had to go to work. During work, we got Raising Cane’s chicken. I showered after work and went to bed.

DAY 26 
2/18/20
This was my 26th day of the consumption blog. I had a very day ahead, in the midst of a busy week of homework and projects. I got up and did homework before my first class, as well as did a little bit of reading. I walked to my literature class and listened to Spotify on the way there. After that class, I walked over to the gym. Before my workout, I decided to finish a few little chores on my computer- emails, scheduling, online orders, etc. I had a great workout and then bought this protein shake before I left. 
I had my afternoon class in St. Paul, but I stopped by the career prep center to get my resume reviewed for an assignment. I then went to class for about an hour and rode the bus back to East Bank afterwards. I made it back just in time for dinner at the house, where we ate Chicken Parmesan. I then laid down and watched some TV to relax for the first time that day, and now I will be watching the bachelor & doing homework with some friends before going to bed.

DAY 26
2/17/20
This was the 26th day of my consumption blog. I had a really busy Monday, so this screenshot was the only picture I took! I had an early morning class in St. Paul per usual- web design. I found my blue light glasses and started using those again because they help my eyes. After class, I did lots of work for my leadership position with sending emails and filling out forms. I also watched some TV and scrolled through social media to take a brain break. I ate a protein bar during this time.
I then had my text & image class. We started a new project and so we started doing research for this and it was really interesting! Afterwards, my younger sister came to pick me up from class because she had the day off from school (presidents day). She drove me to Trader Joe’s because I needed to get a little care package for a friend there. We got flowers and candy, and then also a few groceries for ourselves. We drove back to my house and hung out for a bit, trying some of the snacks we bought. She left around 3:30 and I did homework for about 2 hours before dinner. We had our chapter dinner and meeting at 5:30, and then I had another meeting afterwards with all the new members. I started the rest of my homework around 8:30 and didn’t finish until like 12. Then I went to bed.

DAY 25
2/16/20
This was the 25th day of my consumption blog. I slept in pretty late, but I was exhausted from my full day in Duluth and I knew I had a lot to do that day so I needed the sleep. I ate a brunch kind of meal around 11 and then had a 2 hour meeting at 12. This meeting was about sorority recruitment training. After that meeting, I had another meeting about housing for next year and finances. Then I had a few hours of break in the afternoon where I did homework. My next meeting was at 6 and that was one of my weekly executive board meetings. Then I had another weekly Chapter Standards meeting at 8. And then after that I had my assigned dish duty.
Sunday was just a really busy day for me. I had a lot of obligations and necessary meetings, so I actually never left the house. I try to use Sundays to stay organized for the week ahead. I gave myself a few breaks here and there to just watch TV or tik tok. This was the only picture I took that day, and it was a screen shot of a snack that I saw on tik Tok and want to try. So maybe later this week I’ll go to target and try to find these.

DAY 24
2/15/20
This was my 24th day of the consumption blog. The night before, my sister had texted me asking if I wanted to go to Duluth for the day with her the next day. I absolutely love Duluth, so of course I said yes. I got up at 8am the next morning and got ready, my sister and her friend picked me up at 8:30 and we hit the road. When we got up there, we picked up our cousin that goes to UMD to go exploring with us for the day. We first drove up the shore and stopped at a couple of beaches to walk around. We skipped rocks and hiked around in the snow. We then drove back closer to downtown Duluth to get lunch.
This picture is of my favorite sandwich to date, the Nashville Hot chicken from the OMC Smokehouse in Duluth. It’s amazing. It was a super yummy lunch. Afterwards we drove to Canal Park and walked around on the boardwalks because it was so beautiful out. We got hot chocolate too. Then we stopped in our favorite candy store and got some jelly beans. Emily brought a bag back for our younger brother because they’re his favorite. Then we drove up to Enger Tower and walked up to watch the sunset over Duluth. It was absolutely beautiful (see picture). We then dropped our cousin off and had to drive back to the cities. A perfect day in my favorite place.

DAY 23
2/14/20
This was my 23rd day of the consumption blog. I slept in a little bit because I didn’t have class, but then got up and did a workout in the basement of my house with my friend. I got a little bit of homework and chores done until my dad came to pick me up. He had the day off of work so he took me out to lunch to Shuang Cheng in Dinkytown. This picture is all the food we got. We don’t normally get to hang out together so this was a special time and I was glad that it worked out!
Afterwards, I had a lot of homework to complete before the night. I had an early dinner, because I had to start getting ready for a sorority event that night. We had a valentine’s day themed date party at a venue downtown, so we all dressed up in pink and red. It was such a great time and it went smoothly! Afterwards, some friends and I hung out and watched a movie. I went to bed kind of late but I felt like I had a full day.

DAY 22
2/13/20
This was my 22nd day of the consumption blog. Thursdays are a pretty relaxed day for me in terms of class load, plus I don’t have class on Fridays so these are basically Fridays for me! I slept in a little bit, as I had driven Goph Chauf the night before. When I woke up, I found the temperature outside was in the negatives. I had to put on so many layers to make my 15 minute trek to literature. After that class, I had to bundle up again and make my way over to the Rec. I had a great workout and also went in the sauna.
I walked back to my house with friends that I had worked out with which made it much more bearable. I ate a quick lunch before turning around to go to my second class of the day. This one is in St. Paul, so I had to walk to another far away bus stop. I made it on the bus just in time and got to class. After that class, I went back to my house and ate dinner. As it was galentine’s day, my friends and I decided to go get donuts. We drove 20 minutes to this shop in St. Paul, and then found out they were sold out. After 30 min of driving around, we finally decided to go to the Copper Hen in uptown and got this cupcake and brownie skillet to share. Everything worked out for the best.

DAY 21
2/12/2020
This was the 21st day of my consumption blog. I had an early morning class at 8:30 in St. Paul, and I had worked extra late last night as a Gopher Chauffeur driver, so I was exhausted. Needless to say, I consumed multiple cups of coffee prior to this first class. After my web design class, I had an hour long break. During this time, I ate a protein bar, did homework and watched an episode of New Girl. I then went to my text & image class and continued work on my projects. As Wednesdays are my longest days, I then rode the bus to the Rec on east bank and fit in a quick workout before having to go back to my house.
My afternoon class is an internship prep class and it’s very interesting! I took the bus back to St. Paul and was there for about an hour. Then I came back to East Bank just in time for dinner. Like I said earlier, Wednesdays are my busiest days because I also work gopher chauffeur on these nights. So I got picked up around 8 and started my shift. The pictures above are the GC parking signs and a picture I took in my web design class that I thought was cool.

DAY 20
2/11/20
This was my 20th day of the consumption blog. I woke up early to do homework before I had to go to my first class. I ate some oatmeal, fruit and coffee for breakfast. After that I watched a little TV while I did homework- I’m still watching New Girl so I watched an episode of that this morning. After I got ready, I walked out the door and listened to Spotify on the way to class. It was a really sunny walk, so I wore sunglasses. 
After my first class, I came back and ate lunch at my house. I talked to my friends and hung out for a little bit before getting started on my homework. I listened to a relaxing Spotify playlist while I worked. I then got picked up for my next class and we drove to St.Paul. In that class, I ate this protein bar (birthday cake flavored). After class, we drove back to East Bank and I went home. I did some homework before dinner, and I will be doing more homework after dinner. I am also going to a workout class later tonight at the Rec.

DAY 19
2/10/20
This was my 19th day of the consumption blog. Today, I felt really sick when I woke up so I had to miss my first morning class. I made some oatmeal for breakfast and drank coffee with Vital Proteins collagen. I made it to the afternoon class, and that was a great time- I’m working on designing a business card! I ate part of a sandwich on the way to that class as well as some carrot sticks. I rode the bus back from St. Paul to Minneapolis, got off and walked over to CVS to pick up some medicine. When I got there, the system was down so I couldn’t actually get my medicine. Then I walked down to Fresh Thyme and bought an energy drink.
I had a meeting with my therapist in the afternoon, and I took this picture in the office. I really liked these quotes, and I wanted to remember them. After my appointment, I walked back home to my house and talked with my mom on the phone. I got back, talked to some people and changed into clothes for Monday night dinner. We ate salad, chicken & rice, and mini cheesecakes. We also welcomed new members into our chapter tonight at our spring bid day, so we also had cake to celebrate. After the event was over, we had a new member meeting (it’s my position) and then I started homework when people left. I drank some tea and did laundry at the same time. Now I’m going to bed and will do more homework in the morning.

DAY 18
2/9/20
This was my 18th day of the consumption blog. I was going back to Minneapolis on the bus this morning, so I woke up a little earlier to pack and get ready. My bus was scheduled to leave at 10:30, but because there was a ton of snow it was about 45 minutes late and our entire trip was prolonged. I ended up getting back 2 hours later than I was supposed to, but I had an empty seat next to me so I just napped for a good majority of it. I watched a little New Girl and did some homework with their wifi, but it wasn’t the best so I just chilled mostly. 
When we stopped at a gas station, I bought this kombucha and some crackers. I used to be really into kombucha in high school, but I hadn’t had it in a while and it looked good so I bought it. I also ate a granola bar and an apple that I had packed. When I got back to Minneapolis, my mom picked me up from the bus stop and drove me back to my house on campus. I had to run inside and go straight to my Sunday night meetings. Those went kind of long, so I wasn’t done until about 9:30. I was so tired that I didn’t really do any homework and I went to bed.

DAY 17
2/8/20
This was my 17th day of my consumption blog. After waking up and eating breakfast, my friend Jasmine and I walked around Madison. We went to Lake Mendota to see the winter carnival they were having, and took pictures in front of this cool inflatable Statue of Liberty. After that, we walked down State Street and shopped some more. We stopped in a few little boutiques, and also went into Urban Outfitters. I hadn’t bought anything but Jasmine bought a shirt there. After shopping, we went to Mooyah’s to eat. This was my first time eating a real burger after being vegetarian for 3 years, and it was amazing.
We walked around some more after lunch, stopping in this boutique called Pitaya. There, I bought a shirt, sunglasses, and a belt. Then we stopped at a grocery store to buy some snacks- we bought popcorn and tortilla chips. We went back to her apartment and hung out with her roommates for a while, before all deciding to go get tacos for dinner. The taco place ended up being about a 45 minute walk away, but we walked anyways because it was so nice outside. I got chicken tacos there. Afterwards, we took a wrong turn and it took us about an hour to get back- which was much more difficult because it got colder. We got back to her apartment and went to go visit some other people. Overall, it was a very full & fun day!

DAY 16
2/7/20
This was my 16th day of the consumption blog. This was such a busy day that this was literally the only picture I took and it’s just a screenshot. I’ve been trying to watch the bachelor but I’ve been so busy that I can’t stay caught up, so I look at social media to get the recap each week of what happened. But I woke up early on Friday because I had a dermatology appointment. After that, I stopped by Starbucks to get a drink (honey almond milk flat white) before I kept going to my next appointment. I am working for a French immersion preschool to help redesign their logo, so I met with the woman that runs it to discuss. After this, I had to go downtown to get on a bus because I went to Madison, WI for the weekend to visit a friend!
The bus was about 5 hours, so I watched a lot of New Girl and listened to music. When I got there, I walked to my friend’s house. She and her roommates had made vegan chili for dinner and we’re having their friends from their dorm last year over so we all hung out. Later that night, we went out for food at McDonald’s and tried their new chicken tenders which are amazing.

DAY 15
2/6/20
This was my 15th day of the consumption blog. I drove for gopher chauffeur last night, so I didn’t go to bed until about 2am. Because of that, I let myself sleep in until a little after 8am, rather than getting up early and doing extra homework. I made oatmeal and mixed in my protein powder for breakfast, then watched an episode of New Girl while I ate it. After that, I got ready for class and walked out the door. It’s about a 15 minute walk to my first class of the day, so I listened to some Spotify on the way over as I normally do. The class is about literature and public life, and we’re reading a very interesting book called the Underground Railroad by Colson Whitehead. We talked about the book and discussed our projects. I also ate a protein bar during this class because I don’t have time to go back to my house to each lunch.
After that class, I walked to the gym. My workout was about one hour long, so afterwards I had to hurry back to my house to get changed for my next class. I listened to a new album by a band called Trampled by Turtles. When I got back, I made a peanut butter & banana tortilla wrap for a very late lunch, changed and went back out the door. Starbucks had a happy hour deal, so their drinks were buy one get one free. I walked over to the Dinkytown Starbucks with some friends to get a drink before heading to my last class of the day. I got this drink pictured above, a sweet cream cold brew. I normally wouldn’t spend this much on a drink, but because of the happy hour deal I decided to buy it.
On the bus ride to my last class, I watched more New Girl and drank my coffee. After class, I will ride the bus back to my house and go to a meeting with my advisor before dinner. Thursdays are like my Fridays so now I’m done with class!
