BFT (By: Andy Mok)

BFT? Wanna know what BFT is?

Brain Freeze Thursday.

Well, sometimes Brain Freeze Tuesday. It depends on how many participants we can find on either day. Let me explain:

Here at CBU, we boast the best cafeteria on the planet... but then again the only other cafeteria I've really utilized was the one at my high school, so that's not saying much. But I mean much! They serve all different kinds of food for approximately twelve hours a day. We get to eat everything from good ol' American hamburgers to neat little pieces of sushi. Good stuff! Can't get any better, right?

WRONG

Just recently, our cafeteria added an ICEE. I used to walk to seven eleven as a kid and drink those things by the gallon for a mere $1.25. Now I get to drink 'em for free! Well not really but I get to scan in and drink until I pass out. It's also kind of nice because it mixes things up. I'm not going to sit here and act like I don't have bad days in the caf. But you have to be realistic, there's no way you're going to be content wherever you go. I've heard quite a few stories from our rival schools and how they serve junk in comparison to what we get. As a matter of fact, there was some sort event today to figure out how much food we waste here. I'm kind of scared to know but it just shows that we're kind of spoiled. ICEEs however we do not waste. That's a no no. If anything, we slurp those things down like we're getting paid.

That brings me to BFT. Brain Freeze Thursday. A group of us congregate in the cafeteria to participate in a contest that separates the men from the boys. It's pretty intense but real simple. First person to completely finish a full glass of Icee wins. I've yet to win but I'm getting better. I've lost all feeling in my head which is a good sign of near victory.
