Scholorship: Importance of Fitness in the Life of a Student and in your Opinion.

Fitness is an important part of my life. Since I was very young I have been uncomfortable in my body. For the past three years I have been focused on making myself happy in my own skin by changing my diet, by becoming vegan, and incorporating exercise into my weekly routine. With including these components into my lifestyle I have become happier and life a healthier life.
As a student, there are ways that a schedule will fluctuate and fitness factors that are usually part of a set schedule may be hard to keep constant. While deciding on a school, having fitness facilities on campus will be an important factor affecting my decision. I think a fitness center on campus is important because of a students fluctuating schedule, on a day when the student has a lot of work it is convenient for them to walk to another building on campus and have access to a fitness center at anytime they have, and for a small or no cost, which everyone knows is important to students. Meal plans also help with a student's health. The students have the choice to pick healthy foods, without having to prepare them or purchase them outside of their tuition or school costs. Having the ability to take care of oneself by exercising and eating right leads to good mental and emotional health. When I cannot exercise and when I do not eat right, I become very stressed and anxious. When I am away at college, if I do not have appropriate conditions(workout centers, healthy food, a clean living area) which are key factors in my life, I will not be in a healthy emotional or mental state. All of these factors play roles related to each other, and by making the right decisions while at school and home, by exercising, eating well and being in a stress-free environment lead to having good physical, mental and emotional health.
