For Class (bold is the part i'm doing here)
JOURNAL: Look around your environment and take note of one or more things that you often take for granted. Examples include parts of the campus, your friends, a certain food you enjoy, or a favorite scenic view. Stop what you are doing and write down (either in prose or in a list) all the good things you can about this thing/experience. Also write anything else that you think will help you appreciate it more fully. Comment on this experience. Does this make you savor and appreciate it more? If so, how long does this effect last? If this does not help you savor, why not? How can you incorporate savoring techniques into your daily life more often?
eating in commons:
-variety but not too much variety with regularity i can count on as well as new things to be surprised by
-can eat fancy some times
-i have a board plan so i don't worry about money
-get to enjoy the company of other dinners, be it someone i plan to eat with or happen to see in the dinning hall
-the scrounge allows me to break out of my picking eating confines
-i can eat alone if i want
-wifi all over campus allows me to work and hang out and eat
-the food is mostly organic and locally grown, which is something i wouldn't usually invest in
