    Nevermind. We definitely have those.

    Drat, these suggestions are going to send me down a dark, dirty road.

    What sounds tastier though? Some store bought, mass produced, prepackaged snack cakes, or a freshly barbequed steak? I know which one I'd prefer.

    Grapes. They're bite sized, not messy or sticky, and best of all they are fruit. The only downside is lots of sugar.

    This is what I do when it's time for all-day studying/writing/research:

    1) Drink something that's not water. Caffeine doesn't really affect me, but a strong taste and carbonation helps keep me from getting drowsy. Coke is my drink of preference.

    2) Have food that you can munch on continuously. It's not about filling yourself up; again, it's about keeping awake and focused. Pretzels, for example, are perfect for something that you can just keep eating all day.

    That sounds like a great idea. Thanks for the advice.

    And Vivi22, I'm actually going with the 'steak' advice as well. Sounds way too delicious to pass up.

    Staying awake and energetic is usually the hardest part.

    That stuff might work for Raistlin, but I'd be fighting to stay awake after a couple of hours if I were drinking any amount of Coke and eating pretzels personally.

    I prefer blue rare. Actually, that's kind of a lie. I'd prefer raw, but it's so hard to raise and slaughter your own meat these days.

    I actually prefer plain ol' rare, but that's too much for most people. I've never had blue rare, but that's how my dad likes it. I imagine in the next 5 years, that's where I'll be.

    Asking for blue rare in a restaurant is a pain because most cooks either don't know how to cook it that way, or simply refuse and you end up with rare. I've run into a few steakhouses where they get it right before though. If they're so afraid of me getting sick I'll sign whatever waiver they put in front of me, just cook my damn steak properly. Usually I'd send it back if I weren't so damn hungry whenever I go out to eat.

    I worked at a restaurant where we couldn't cook a burger under medium. I mean, chop meat and steak are different, though. But still. Stupid legal issues.

    Also, most places I go and ask for medium rare, I get medium.
    Then try asking for rare next time you go there and it will be cooked medium rare

    If you are studying for Math, then I recommend pie. If that math tomic is Trig, then pie is essential.

    Whatever helps you focus is what you should eat. I like smoothies personally when I'm studying.
