The cafeteria is open from 7am to 9pm. This is important because I got up at 6:45 this morning and went downstairs hoping for a pre-[pre-breakfast strength] workout snack and could not get any. Next time we have practice at 7am, I will steal a banana the night before. I am in the cafeteria about six times a day, eating meals, eating snackes, or getting tea. That is probably the best thing about OTCs; not having to cook or clean. Basically we don't have to do anything other than train. Which is why I am now studying Exercise Physiology. It is fascinating to read about exercise phys in a scientific textbook and not some magazine article. I finished the section on nutrition and now know some of the very tangible ways what I eat and when can affect my ability to train/perform. So that's my new try-to-keep-laura-mentally-stimulated tactic.
