The Need to Crunch


Right now, I'm under a grade crunch. Midterm grades are due on Monday. My Composition II class has just submitted their first major research paper. I have about 100 papers to grade, and I give thorough responses. So, as I'm chewing up papers,I frequently have this need to chew up food. Crunchy or chewy stuff is the most satisfying. Chewy isn't usually as dietarily sound. I think of Twizzlers and Gummy Bears...I just can't eat those on my diet. But crunchy I can do. I brought in a bag of rice cakes and a bag of carrots. I like both of these and they should help me get through the day.

I think the key to success is to be aware of your individual weaknesses and habits. So, if you hear a loud chomping noise, it's probably just me chewing through a research paper.
