How to feed a starving Artist...

I've been contemplating how I would get along if I were on a tight budget as a professional artist. I'm not saying that if you become an artist you have to be constantly hungry and poor, I just think it's more fun to look at it that way. Starving does add some dramatic appeal to the whole scenario if you ask me. So I'm making a list of the things I would try to live off of if I were in some shanty little apartment with my dog, computer, numerous sketchbooks, and Lord knows what else.

Drinks
Red Bull...but not the sugar free, that's just pointless.
Starbucks products...if I could afford them, I just need coffee.
Vitamin Water...it's bland yet ridiculously tasty.
Kool-Aid...that's just a given coming from LJ.
Juice...I go through a bottle a week of juice, especially orange.
Powerade Packets...those babies make water taste like heaven.

Food
Ramen Noodles...only chicken or pork flavored, shrimp is sick.
Pasta-Roni...it's what I make when my parents are gone, it's easy.
Rice-a-Roni...God's gift to rice eaters everywhere.
Mac&Cheese...no explanation needed.
Tortillas...I can make my own homemade for cheap!
Hot Dogs...I refuse to learn what is actually in them though.
Tostino's Pizzas...AMAZINGNESS frozen and packaged into a box.
Spinach...so much better to make salads with than iceberg lettuce.


And that is a big chunk of what I would be eating. It's really not that bad, but I would have to exercise regularly, maybe even two times a day if I don't want to be seeing those Tostino's Pizzas when I look in the mirror. It's so nice to be a teenager and be able to eat practically anything I want and have the matabolism to burn it off. I better enjoy it while I can!

I'm off to find the ice cream! Ta ta!
