Dining Halls

So basically everyone should know how it feels to have a meal plan. A majority of us are freshman and were forced to pay for two or three semesters of dining hall services on campus. Adding to that, we were also forced to live on campus for a year unless we lived in a certain county. Focusing on dining services, they cost $1800 a semester. That is a shit load of money to eat for 1 whole year basically. Because I came for summer B I payed an extra 1800 basically.I think the main reason why I want to blog about dining halls is because they are starting to disappoint me. Over summer B i was pretty satisfied with what they were feeding us; although they did have their bad days sometimes, it was over all good. Since fall semester has started I feel like the quality of the food, the service, and availability has been slacking. For example, over summer I ate a lot of sandwiches and didn't mind the meat, but now I barely eat the sandwiches because the turkey breast tastes phoney as hell. And certain meats just scare me. As for service I feel like there are some scarier people working there than ever before or they are really slow at serving which gets to me because I can be very impatient at times. As for availability, lines have been getting longer and longer and I always see empty plates. And for a growing man it is necesary for me to get my food in. I feel like they are under staffed really. Especially in the back because whenever I got to put my plates away, 8 times out of 10 there is a huge pile of dishes not moving. I just can't wait to move off campus and worry about cooking my own food and not relying on some cheap nasty taste food.

  1. Lol. Your blog was funny but true, I agree that 1800 dollars is too much just for food. I guess you don't realize the value of money until its your own. But yea, the food does get pretty bad sometimes, but I don't think it reached the badness level of how some high school food were.
