One Option

This power outage made us really realize how many options we have for eating. If we do not like what is served for dinner in our dorm than we go to another dorm to see if there is something better. With the power out we all had the same food, cereal and cold sandwiches and there was hardly any other options. I went for a walk downtown and Tea Pot being the only restaurant open I swore I saw all of campus in there eating their dinner in the dark. Everyone would do anything to eat something other than cereal. When we finally got regular food for dinner it was almost as if nothing had been different for the last couple days. It was not until someone said out loud that this was out first real meal that anyone else at our table really realized that. We all take for granted all the options that have to eat and never stop to realize how different every meal would be if we only had the one option.
