Munchies: a real crisis

Food for any person is a need. It is the basis of human energy. For students however, it is a necessity. It is one of their most important living habits. One must realise though, students don’t feed at regular meal times but rather at the most weird and unusual time periods (according to elders anyway).

For students living in residence, the dinning hall is their watering hole. This is where they go to get that dose of drink and grub. However one should be warned the dinning hall is a chaotic place. On average there are 500 students in each hall - all eating between the same time periods. Each student books their meal in advance and when feeding time occurs, ques up to get their share. A vital rule to remember in the dinning hall is that one gets the chance to take  4 pieces of bread and either 2 fruit and no juice or 1 juice and 1 fruit. This you chose wisely as munchies kick in between meal times.

Munchies are another issue in a student’s life, what does one do when dinner is over, your next meal is lunch the next day and you are in res - hungry. For those in Smuts residence, Milo’s Munchies can help them out. In room 245, a student has opened a tuck shop, where he sells all the good treats that any hungry student wants to chow. Chips, cold cool drinks, chocolates, and toffees (the list continues).
Every evening student pour in to try control their very real late night hunger pains.

If one finds themselves a lot less lucky, students result in mashups, this involves making probably the most disgusting meal of your life. Think macaroni made in a kettle, an egg made in the microwave and a can of sweet corn, all mixed together – for what seems like a tasty and clever way to fill the whole in your stomach. Think again, but for students such distances shall be taken because when you’re low on cash dollar, hungry and have the slightest amount of food consumable. Large steps will be taken to make a plan and sort your crisis out.
