Build Season Habits

tl;dr: any good habits? or just a lot of mtn dew?

Personally, it's one of the few times when I'll actually do work without procrastinating, and it also makes me enjoy eating (mostly) healthy for the rest of the year, because I eventually get tired of junkfood.

Even though we eat a lot of junkfood, our weekend meals are usually good homemade meals brought in by parents, which is also really nice.

And kudos to you Shrub, that was a great idea bringing up the subject of healthy habits, and encouraging us to make better ones instead of just continuing with the bad and making fun of them.
