NO DAYS OFF... Well, maybe just one

We've all heard the term "No days off", and it's absolutely true! If you want your body and mind to be in tip top shape, you shouldn't take a single day off. But my roommate and I were in desperate need of at least one day off.

With weights 3 times a week, and practice every other day, you have to take full advantage of days off coach gives you. Whether that means resting your body, by sitting in the ice bath for as long as you can stand, taking long naps, or being academically productive in the library.

I hate to say it, but we didn't do any of those things. Yesterday afternoon, we decided to hit the mall and of course get Chik-fil-A for lunch. After eating the crappy dorm food for the past few weeks we decided to splurge on some top quality french fries and chicken nuggets.

The 2 hours we were out at the mall were wonderful! I bought a Sporting KC shirt for the upcoming game, walked around and window shopped, and people watched from the food court. Sadly, our free time came to an end, because we had to get back to the room to do our laundry.

Tips for all students: Don't go to the mall in your free time, like me. Do something productive like studying for a test, or preparing yourself for class the next day so you aren't stuck at the library all night.

And don't eat all your Chik-fil-A too fast, your tummy will hate you later
