Late Night Regrets.

It's 11:48pm. I'm sitting on the bed with my roommate while we chat about nothing and watch the little TV mounted on the dresser, flipping back and forth from E! Channel to the Olympics. All our homework is finished, we have no exams the next morning, and we don't feel like putting on heels and makeup to go out.

This has to be a familiar scenario for most college girls: pajamas, no contacts, and doing absolutely nothing after a long day of classes can feel like sheer bliss. Going out and partying make for great Instagram opportunities, but some of the most fun nights are the ones where you decide to have a night in.

But there is, of course, the constant internal battle that many girls have between being comfortable all the time and looking their best. Why does this have to be a choice? Because in a perfect world, our version of comfortable involves not moving from our bed and watching Netflix while we have amazing takeout brought to us whenever we desire. And much of the time, "whenever we desire" means somewhere between the hours of 11:00pm-2:00am. Yes, I am talking about late night eating.

I have fell victim to late night eating more times than I can count, and I like to think I've really tried it all--Thai food, fast food, pizza, fried chicken--pretty much anything that is available in those dark hours is something I have tried. And all of them are sinfully amazing.

Unfortunately, however, I wake up the next morning and my stomach is still full from the night before. I feel sluggish and gross, and I keep thinking, "I can't believe I ate that." Because as much as I love ordering a pepperoni with a side of Ranch from Greenville Avenue Pizza Company, I also love looking and feeling fit. And so, as a testament to college girls everywhere, I feel for you. I really do. But, please, please, please hang up on the Asian delivery man before you pay for that chicken pad Thai. Because I promise you that you will regret it.
