@ $Kings: Oh, I definitely agree with you about that. I have friends who gained 15+ pounds due to “stress”. When I ask them why they don’t go to RIMAC, they say it’s because it’s too far. Oh, give me a break. Although I might have been more reluctant to go regularly had I gotten placed in a college farther away from the gym (I live in Marshall), that would not have stopped me from using the gym which I ALREADY PAY FOR. Plus, the rec classes are pretty cool and UCSD students get discounts. And exercise alleviates stress, so I don’t know about the legitimacy of that excuse…haha.

Food is just very accessible as a freshman…everyone hits up Goody’s at midnight or something to fulfill late night cravings. And there aren’t any parents berating you about your eating habits, so the freedom can be exhilarating :P.
