It's Crunch Time UC San Diego

It's inevitable; you work your butt off 9 weeks every quarter only to cram as much as you can in your beautiful brains right before finals, right?

Don't worry, I remember what that was like too. I think I dreaded the weekend prior to finals more than any other weekend throughout the year! But, the plus side was the blissful feeling of relief when the last test was taken and the path to Blacks Beach was in sight! WOW, if only today was next Friday and we could all indulge in some much needed R&R :).

Well, before we daydream to much, it's best we face the facts! This weekend we need to feel our best to make sure we soak up all those last equations, formulas, stats and whatever else you have on your plate next week. To do so, the most important step is to nourish your body right. Focusing on supply your body with immunity boosting foods (like oranges, spinach, mangoes and grapefruit) and a nice blend of protein and carbohydrates will keep your focus strong.

Come on, as great as it tastes going down, we all know that after finishing our second candy bar followed by the last two chips from the family size bag the only thing we want is our bed, right?!

To keep your hunger at bay and your brain power mighty, check out some of the Dietitian Approved snacks available at your HHD Markets across campus to fuel your body right!



Don't forget the Destress Brunch this Sunday too at your local Dining Unit... it's the perfect time to relax and soak up some much needed break time!

Good luck on finals UC San Diego and we will see you in the Fall!

Chocolate Fountains...Bagel Bars...Eggs Benedict...DeStress with Dining!

    Need a pick me up? Don't worry, HDH knows how stressful finals can be and wants to make sure you're balancing your mind, body and NUTRITION! 

   One of the most important things to remember right now is to nourish your body. Think of that car analogy; you're body is an engine that needs the right kind of maintenance. You need the gas to get to your next location and the oil changes to keep your car running.

    So, as you enter next week, remember to fuel up on complete meals (think 3 food groups per meal) and get at least a few hours of sleep (8 if you can swing it!). Your car wouldn't go far out of gas, and neither will your body...

     To keep you fueled and focused Dining Services is offering a special brunch this Sunday. Be sure to check out your neighborhood Dining Unit and dive in to some delicious eats... and treats!
