The latest email probably helps to explain why I’m always so sleepy:

For many college students, exams, followed by the holidays and semester break result in behaviors that foster regrets. The common denominator? Impulsive and chaotic eating. Not to say that you have to be strict with your regular eating pattern, but it’s not a bad idea to apply some structure and commitment. Take time to check your schedule and plan for meals and/or snacks every 3-5 hours. Limit your caffeine and sugary foods. And include protein for added “brain power”. An overindulgence in carbs can end up making you sleepy….Good luck with finals and enjoy your break!
