12 Chinese Foods I Miss A Lot

I am so hungry right now. If you ever visit China, you should eat these things. Or really just eat them because they're good.

凉皮 (Cold noodles)

If I could eat this every day I would.

北京烤鸭 (Peking Duck)


Some fancy places will literally cut the duck into nice arrangements in front of you.

小笼包/饺子 (Dumplings sort of)

^This is 小笼包 and while they're basically the same as dumplings, they're a lot soupier.

^These are proper dumplings. They look different from the other ones because they're folded differently and are boiled not steamed. Again, these come in different flavors and the stuffing varies a lot from place to place.

刀削面(Sort of Specialty Noodles)


The noodles are thicker and flatter than normal, and I really miss the texture.

羊肉串(Lamb Skewers)

One time I visited inner Mongolia, and they literally slaughtered a sheep in front of my family and then cooked it. I felt awful but it was delicious.

麻婆豆腐 (MaPo Tofu)

I feel like most people know this one. Yes, it is super good.

炒饭 &炒面 (Fried Rice &Fried Noodles)



I ate this last week.

I used to order this every time I went to a restaurant.

汤面(Noodles &Soup)


I had this yesterday. You can add whatever you want to it (usually leftovers) and it's still good.

葱油饼(Green Onion Scallion fried thing)

So crispy, so oily, so good. Used to eat these for breakfast instead of toast.

茶叶蛋 (Tea eggs)


An excellent snack. They sell these at convenience stores in china, and they're a lot more flavorful than the regular kind.

辣子鸡 (Spicy Chicken)

Most of those peppers you see are actually just for decoration. It's so fried MmmmmmmMmm....

DESSERTS:

珍珠奶茶 (Bubble Tea)

This is actually technically a Taiwanese thing (sorry :( ) But it's just so sweet and popular that I couldn't resist. Those little black tapioca balls are chewy and give you something to do instead of just drinking the insanely sweet milk tea. Now it comes in a bunch of varieties.

北京老冰棍 (Beijing popsicles)

These are literally less than 50 cents and I once ate 5 of these in a row before I got brain freeze.

There is some great food out there!

I went to a small high school, like 120-people-in-my-graduating-class small. It definitely had some good and some bad, and if you also went to a small high school, I’m sure you’ll relate to the things that I went through.

1. If something happens, everyone knows about it

Who hooked up with whom at the party? Yeah, heard about that an hour after it happened. You failed a test? Sorry, saw on Twitter last period. Facebook fight or, God forbid, real fight? It was on half the class’ Snapchat story half an hour ago. No matter what you do, someone will know about it.

Chandler Bing

I'm assuming that we've all heard of the hit 90's TV series, Friends, right? Who hasn't? Admittedly, I had pretty low expectations when I first started binge watching the show on Netflix, but I quickly became addicted.

Without a doubt, Chandler Bing is the most relatable character, and there isn't an episode where I don't find myself thinking, Yup, Iam definitely the Chandler of my friend group.

Working with the public can be a job, in and of itself. Some people are just plain rude for no reason. But regardless of how your day is going, always having to be in the best of moods, or at least act like it... right?

1. When a customer wants to return a product, hands you the receipt, where is printed "ALL SALES ARE FINAL" in all caps.

2. Just because you might be having a bad day, and you're in a crappy mood, doesn't make it okay for you to yell at me or be rude to me. I'm a person with feelings, just like you.

3. People refusing to be put on hold when a customer is standing right in front of you. Oh, how I wish I could just hang up on you!

Another day, another Elle Woods comment. Can’t us blondes get through the day without someone harping at us over the typical stereotypes about who we are? I never understood why a person was judged based upon the hair color they were born with, or the hair color they choose to have (unless you dye your hair blue like Kylie Jenner, I’m still trying to understand why that’s a trend). Nevertheless, as it should be assumed, not everyone is the same. Not all blondes like bright colors and Lilly Pulitzer, and not all blondes claim to identify with Marilyn Monroe. I think the best suggestion to give to people before they make such radical claims is to stop judging a book by its cover. Or in this case, stop judging a blonde by her hair color.
