someone call the doctor!

hungry readers, i regret to inform you that i am grievously ill.



yes, it's true.

the sickness that ails me is the dreaded universitystudentitis.


universitystudentitis: (n) an airborn virus that spreads rapidly and peaks during exam periods. symptoms: loss of will to cook, flavour apathy, shortness of tastebud and general dissatisfaction. 


here are some photos of my symptoms:




no, these are not snacks. these, my friends, are meals. 



i know it's disturbing and even a little sad, but stop crying in a corner, clutching my photo, singing sarah mclachlan's "i will remember you," universitystudentitis isn't fatal. it's only really unsatisfying. AND there's a cure! homecooked meals and holiday baking. both of which, ms cleo tells me, are in my near future. 


and she's right. promptly after my exam at 2pm, i will be fleeing UofO as fast as my wee legs will carry me. if you see me running through campus, don't be alarmed. i'm not being chased by a sexual predator, i just want gingerbread. to translate, i'll be bidding adios to hottawa and heading home for christmas until the fine month of janvier.


you'll be pleased to know that i have some delicious holiday plans for the blog, none of which include pizza pops or ruffles chips. stay tuned!

but for now, it's babybels and pepsi for dinner at the library. again. 


please note: universitystudentitis is a serious illness that affects millions of young adults around the world. if you have morbid thoughts of eating just cereal for dinner or are starting to believe energy drinks are one of the major food groups, seek help. talk to your doctor today. together, we can build a more delicious tomorrow. 




p.s. i wrote this while i was supposed to be studying and while taking up a luxurious study room in the library while various others suffer in their inferior cubicles. i'm a bad studier. and person, it seems.
p.p.s. hi jasmine.
