Healthy Habits :)

  Welcome back! I had a lot of fun making my last blog, so I decided to make something very similar this week. This week, I'm going to talk about some healthy habits, so sit back and enjoy!
Habit 1: Try to break up your three big meals into six little ones. This makes it easier for your body to break down all the food completely.
Habit 2: If your busy life can't handle "Habit 1", try to eat one really healthy meal out of your three. Just one! Little by little your body would get healthier and happier.
Habit 3: Soups and Stews! Soups are a great way to save time and money. In addition they are very healthy. You can just freeze the left over and heat them up for the next day!
Habit 4: Staying hydrated. Ugh this is a problem that I have haha...but I'm working on it. Water is one of the most important ingredients in life. Water keeps you full(with no calories), energized, and extra focused.
Habit 5: One of my recent blogs was about the extent of being human. Setting realistic goals is very important. Not only does it save you stress, it also helps you get closer to your goals. (Personal experience :) )
Habit 6: Taking a vacation. YASSS. This also relates to the realistic human life because a humans can only do so much. Even if it is a 10 minute break from studying or a two week vacation in Hawaii, it still counts.
Thank you for reading my blog. See you next time!

Just food in general :)

   Hello world! Today I will be talking about just food in general. For example what are the best foods to eat before bed and power boosting breakfasts. Let's begin.
   Let me start of with saying don't eat sugar and fat filled foods before bed. Instead, try cherries or bananas. You can also have a bowl of berries. To make the digestion easier you can even make it into a smoothie to ensure a happy belly! If you want to lose weight without torturing yourself, try a 200 calorie snack filled with protein and fiber like 6-ounce container of nonfat Greek yogurt topped with 4 chopped walnuts and 1/2 cup of halved strawberries, totaling 180 calories, 18 grams of protein and 2 grams of fiber.
 And then there is breakfast, my favorite meal out of the whole day! In order to start your day of right, eat oats! It has been proven that oats lower cholesterol when eaten regularly. Oats are also rich in omega-3 fatty acids , folate, and potassium. Just try to avoid the flavored type.  Instead top your oatmeal with berries, honey, and nuts. If you're ever in a quick rush in the morning, Greek yogurt is your friend. It's quick, easy, and filled with protein. Just like oatmeal, you can top it off with a healthy topping.

I am human, nothing more

  I feel like this blogpost is going to be more of a rant about the limits of being human. I have been wanting to write about this for a while now, but I was always unsure and kinda doubtful about it ...but today is the day!
  Humans are amazing creatures and they make mistakes, not once but many many many times. That's why I'm always a little bit edgy about people not receiving a second chance when they made a mistake. Even thought sometimes you feel like smacking that person upside their head because they made a very idiotic mistake. Put yourself in their shoes.
   Second is perfection. Perfection is unachievable. You can't and shouldn't change yourself to suit anybody's needs. If you do, that person is not worthy of you, a human being.
It's very easy to get caught up in what's not real in today's world(like perfection), catch yourself and make better choices. Remember you are human, nothing more.

Intergrity is EVERYTHING

    I came upon a quote once, which really made it's purpose and changed me in a better way. "No matter how educated, talented, rich or cool you believe you are, how you treat people ultimately tells all. Integrity is everything." -unknown author. This quote is about integrity.
In·teg·ri·ty    /inˈteɡrədē/ noun. the quality of being honest and having strong moral principles; moral uprightness.
    People look at integrity in many different ways. It can be honesty, kindness, loyalty, or doing the right thing when nobody is watching. I feel like this also connects to the concept of empathy because you have put yourself in other people's shoes and experience their life. I tested this out and the results were clear. This made me change the way I look at people. I wanted to share this with you, hoping it will make a positive impact on your life, like it did on mine. Humans are very social and interactive creatures, therefore how they treat people really is EVERYTHING.
