Many campuses have fewer dining options on weekends, so the chances of you seeing your crush are doubled the minute you walk in on a Friday or Saturday night. Channel your inner Chrissy to handle this situation in the most elegant way possible.

You did it! Thank your fans and make a graceful exit. You may have eaten three plates of buttered noodles, but you have no regrets (for now).

That was a lot of work. You walked all the way to dinner, all the way back, and didn’t embarrass yourself (too much) in between. There are scientific reasons why eating makes you tired, so reward yourself with a quick nap to help with digestion.
