my studying vices

Pink vitagen
(hey this is free advertising!) It's not bad, am considering switching away from Yakult. Not that I drink both on a regular basis but it's such a novelty, suddenly.

Strawberry teeth-cleaning gum.
Fantastic for staving off hunger, plus chewing (verb.) gum apparently increases metabolism.

Manga
For the (many) times where too many English words fry my brain

Cocoa butter
perfect for satisfying chocolate cravings because you can keep smelling the chocolate without actually eating it and gaining calories. It's not super greasy so you won't get residue all over the computer keyboard or the cello.

The bane of my existence
everytime i start practicing i forget to stop. the worst distraction of all.
