I need some vitamin D

For the past two weeks, I had the winter blues, stuck in my dorm room studying, to busy to be bored too bored to be productive. I was seriously considering changing my major, because I felt that I had become stagnated and completely lost, when all I really needed was to step out into the weak February sun, absorb some photons   and increase my production of that essential vitamin D.  Though many college students would be too embarrassed to admit, I reached this conclusion after I called my mother, who insisted that my total disparagement was caused simply by two things my lack of sun light ( which was quickly confirmed as I assessed the image of pallor that greeted me in the mirror) and the fact that I had not been writing anything.... anything.... but college paper, which in my opinion hardly count as "writing".  My mother was referring to the writing that contained the essence of the writer, my feelings beliefs, my soul. I sat in the February sun absorbing its brilliance, my creative juices began to boil, and at 11:18pm I sat down at my computer and I knew what to do. My mom was right, I missing more than one essential vitamin in my life.
