An Appreciation Of My True Love

Just trying to describe that special feeling that can't be ignored.

An Appreciation Of My True Love
www.autostraddle.con

HA- you thought this was going to be about a boy. PLOT TWIST. I don't believe in true love. The closest thing I've found to true love (beside Jesus's love for me) is the euphoric feeling of walking into a Chick-Fil-A. I've had one of the most troubling weeks of my life, but the one thing that stayed constant through this storm was Chick-Fil-A. Now, before you attack me for false advertisement, know that it was for your benefit so you would click on this and hear me out. My only hope for you is that one day you feel the same way about Chick-Fil-A, and maybe my words can lead you to this place of peace and comfort.

Whenever I feel sad, happy, angry, joyful, frustrated, content, upset, (or nothing at all), I go to Chick-Fil-A. Let me tell you, it is the most comforting place to be when you're in any state of emotion. The smiling faces, the instrumental worship songs, and the smell of fried chicken all contribute to the peaceful, zen that overwhelms you as soon as you walk through the door. I am fully convinced that 12 nuggets, fries, and a sweet tea are the perfect meal to turn any day around or to make a good day great.

I'm pretty sure the people at the Clemson Chick-Fil-A have legitimately started to recognize me. BUT I AM NOT ASHAMED. I EMBRACE IT. My biggest ambition is that one day, I'll walk in and the cashier will say, "Oh, hey, Catherine! The regular?" And I'll say, "No, [insert employee's name], let's shake it up today and make it a Cool Wrap."

Also, Chick-Fil-A is a freaking smart company because they just came out with one of their most brilliant marketing plans- The Chick-Fil-A app. If you don't have and actively use the Chick-Fil-A app already, you might as well never talk to me again. It is a God send. I swear that Jesus himself was like, "Man, the world is so messed up right now. I need to send a beacon of hope." Then, he went over to the Chick-Fil-A in heaven where S. Truett Cathy is currently working and said, "Mr. Cathy, drop that chicken sandwich, I need your help with a very important project." And thus, the Chick-Fil-A app was born and we were all showered with Chick-Fil-A treats.*

So, thank you, Chick-Fil-A, for all you do for me and everyone else in this blessed nation. Thank you for being a comforting refuge, a meal saver, a best friend. I love you forever, CFA.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

I don't think I say it enough...

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
