Don’t Eat That. Seriously.

(This is too boring to refine into an actual blog entry, so enjoy my raw notes)

• Gigantic fuckin’ class with more upperclassmen than I would’ve figured
• Al Bushway sounds more like a car salesman’s name than a nutritionist’s
• Why are the TA’s always hot? (Angel & Leslie)
• Bushway likes to fish, garden, has three cats and is probably a reincarnated lesbian (she noted with affection and hope)
• Carbs, proteins lipids, vitamins, duh duh duuuuhhh
• No time for minerals, suckers!
• There will be exercises tracking my diet (Ruh-roh)
• No time for minerals, but there will be time for genetic engineering? Hmm
• If I’m ever a professor, student responsibilities will include “Not Being A Dick”
• SWEET NO FINAL EXAM FUCK YES
• AGH again with the powerpoint slides
• No extra credit or make-up quizzes
• This is going to be so much cake
• Predicted Grade: A++++++

Chapter One: What You Eat And Why

SPOILER ALERT: Coffee And Because It Makes Me Feel Like The Bionic Woman

• Essential Nutrients have specific biological function and need to be gained from the diet. Without them, your bodily function declines and eventually ceases.
• Q: How fun is scurvy? A: Tooth-losing fun!
• Why do we study nutrition and health? Because keeping our teeth is usually A Good Thing.
• Poor diet and a sedentary lifestyle puts you at a higher risk for heart disease, cancer, and diabeetus. Also, the sky is blue.
• Bushway seriously just said “hemophilier”
• And what a great way to start my semester: with DEATH

<Also the sky is blue> I cracked up at the so badly that people at work looked at me funny. Are these your ACTUAL notes for the lecture (for use during study time?), or just mental notes of your perception of it?

Yeah, these are my actual notes. They’ll get better as the classes actually start. I spend all my class time on the internet anyway, so I figured this would be a good way to focus on the lecture instead of Tumblr.
