11 Thoughts We All Have While Ordering Chipotle
Ben Gilbert

Burritos are life. How does one actually describe the satisfaction of ordering non-authentic Mexican food? It's impossible! And legend has it, there's a place where one can get the best burrito. It's Chipotle. There's only one problem; it's build-your-own-meal.

1. "Do I want to deal with the mess of a real burrito?"

Everything falls out, it breaks open, the salsa makes it soggy... Listen people! Burritos are messy! But a burrito bowl is just so unsatisfying. Oh, the internal battle...

2. "That chicken looks dry. That is chicken, right?"

I swear, all meat looks the same when it's been sitting out for two hours. And when you're standing in line with 20 people behind you and the guy is asking what meat you want, suddenly none of it looks appetizing.

3. "Will these beans haunt me later today?"

Sometimes we find ourselves in unprecedented situations. First dates, "sleep over," job interview and so on. Beans have been known to ruin these specific events. Do you foresee these events happening later?

4. "Wait, what kind of beans am I actually getting?"

This is when life starts to spiral downward. The guy is talking fast, you've never been here, and you aren't any kind of bean expert. Hail Mary, tell him you don't want the beans anymore!

5. Notices guacamole all over the kid's hands. "Is he going to change his gloves?"

There is something really odd about when you think about food touching. Especially when someone is preparing food. I mean, it's all going in the same places anyways. It still makes you cringe when you think about getting handed a burrito covered in guacamole you didn't order.

6. "Salsa or sour cream? Or both? Or guacamole?!"

You can have the best of both worlds, you can have the best of three worlds! But there's so many different salsas how will you ever choose?

7. "Guacamole is extra?!"

Wait, I have to pay extra for guacamole? What kind of place this is!?

8. "Jesus take the wheel."

Some people just hate places where you have to order food. Like Subway. I don't know what about it is just nerve-wracking. Everything looks the same, you are trying not to make the people in line mad, it's just a struggle.

9. "Boyfriend, please finish ordering for me."

The ultimate moment of defeat, when you've became so overwhelmed with the questions that finally ask your boyfriend to order for you. But in reality, it's just a trap to see if he really knows what you want on a burrito.

10. "No, don't order that! I don't like that!" or "Wow, he really knew what I wanted!"

This can end one of two ways. Your significant other either knows exactly what you want or he doesn't. This really is just a test of the relationship. This whole thing is a sham!

11. "This burrito was a mess."

Your initial instinct was correct, burritos are a complete mess and you just went through all that anxiety to have your hands covered in sour cream. Oh well, it builds character.

In honor of Mother’s Day, I have been thinking of all the things my mom does for my family and me. Although I couldn’t write nearly all of them, here are a few things that moms do for us.

Thank You on wooden blocks

1. Thank you for being the one I can always count on to be honest.

A true friend will tell you if the shirt is ugly, or at least ask to borrow it and "accidentally" burn it.

2. Thank you for accepting me for who I am.

A best friend will love you regardless of the stale french fries you left on the floor of your car, or when you had lice in 8th grade and no one wanted to talk to you.

Do as I say, not as I do.

Your eyes widen in horror as you stare at your phone. Beads of sweat begin to saturate your palm as your fingers tremble in fear. The illuminated screen reads, "Missed Call: Mom."

Growing up with strict parents, you learn that a few things go unsaid. Manners are everything. Never talk back. Do as you're told without question. Most importantly, you develop a system and catch on to these quirks that strict parents have so that you can play their game and do what you want.

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!
