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.

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
