Ponderings 5/15/11

1. Getting yourself to stop eating and wrap up your remaining food is extremely difficult. Here are some tips to improve how to do this:
A. Split food into portions before you start eating.
B. Make sure to make at least 2 servings. If you make 1.2 or 1.5 servings you are likely to think that there is not enough for another day's worth of food and you will eat the extra food.
C. Eat in containers that can be put in the refrigerator so there is no extra work in putting your leftovers in the refrigerator.
D. At a restaurant ask for the takeout box before you start eating. Additionally put the food you want to save in it before you start eating.
E. Get a roommate or pet who will finish anything.
F. Become the roommate who will finish anything.


2.Think about one of your younger friends or a younger sibling of one of your friends and try to guess what grade they are in. Then actually do the math and realize that they are a lot older then you thought. Repeat the steps above and it will happen again.


3. From last week's poll it looks like most people crave watermelon as the weather gets warmer. I agree with the results and love cooling down with some cold watermelon. I am also starting to experiment with watermelon ice cubes. I also don't understand why people buy seedless watermelon half the fun of eating watermelon is spitting the seeds.

4. Making phone calls in concerts to others at the concert will result in both parties not hearing anything and repeatedly saying I cannot hear you.

5. After taking a hot shower your bathroom mirror (if not in separate room) is out of commission for 5 minutes. (Unless you want to wipe the mirror). Someone needs to fix this.

6. I have decided to invest in every color of wristbands and keep a couple of every color in my wallet.
