Dining Hall

For the First time in about a month my friends and I went to Dining Hall to eat at dinner time. We never get to do this because we usually have practice until late at night when dining is closed. While at dining I looked for habits of people just like we discussed in psychology class. I also thought about what i do when I am in dining hall and where i go first and last. There are many different routes to many different stations that people take when in dining hall.

The first thing i go to when i am in dining hall is to get my drink and look at the line for the sandwich station. If it is too long of a line i will not wait to get a sandwich i will move to the salad station and the main station with the main courses but i did not waste my time at the sandwich station because i got my drink when over there. My last option if I don’t find anything is the hot station but that is my last option.

I find my own choices interesting because i try not to waste energy from going to stations that i won’t obtain anything from. I try to get energy back from all the stations i visit. This is why I go to the hot station last because it waste the most energy going there because we never sit by that side of the cafeteria. This goes back to psychology class because we talked about how people do not like to expend more energy than they are going to get back from the food. This is not just for walking around and how far each station is but also how much energy you are going to waste in the sandwich line as well. I noticed many people grabbed something at the station they were at never really walking away form a station empty handed. Many people act the same way in dining hall just as I do.
