This article is written by a student writer from the Spoon University at Skidmore chapter.

Returning back to school from winter break can be brutal. No one wants to deal with papers, exams, getting up early, and more. It can make anyone want to curl up in bed and stay there forever. But there is one major benefit of returning to college, the dining hall. While we complain, at times, about the quality of D-hall food we secretly know we have it good. Especially if you have an unlimited meal plan. So to give you some hope, here is what it feels like to return to D-hall as told by Gilmore Girls.

For those 8 am classes it’s imperative that you get caffeine. Or when your energy is dragging at that 3 pm slump and you just need a boost. D-hall coffee may not be the best coffee you ever tasted, but it does the trick. So grab your travel mug and load it up. If coffee isn’t your jam here are some other ways to get your caffeine fix.

It’s the worst when you just wanna grab a bite to eat either after or before class and you realize it’s that awkward time when D-hall is closed to prepare for dinner. That period from 4 pm to 5 pm can be agony when all you want is something to eat. But don’t worry because before you know it you will be back in the swing of things and create an eating schedule that accommodates D-hall’s hours.
