An Appreciation Of My True Love

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

An Appreciation Of My True Love

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'm serious

There are tons of unisex names that are popular: Taylor, Alex, Bailey, etc. There are also numerous names that are used for both sexes, but they’re not seen as “unisex” yet. People are slowly becoming accustomed to the dual use of these names, but for the most part, in their minds they associate certain names with certain sexes. And that leaves those of us with these names in many awkward situations.

I'm an anthropology major, and I love every minute of it. I couldn't tell you why, but I guess there's just something about studying different lifestyles that absolutely fascinates me. But anthropology majors definitely have our weird sides, especially when you go to a school that is filled with mostly Business and Bio majors. But us weirdos definitely have a lot in common, specifically these 16 things.

Everyone has insecurities, that's just a fact. You didn't ask to be born this way. You didn't ask to inherit the one trait no one else in your family has. And you definitely didn't ask to be this ghostly white. But as soon as you've learned to live with it for a while (less wrinkles later on in life, right? right???) someone has to ruin it for you. They have to flaunt they're perfectly tanned body from Spring Break and hold their sun-kissed skin against yours. But I've had enough... here are the things that perpetually pale individuals are tired of hearing.

Being a music major is not all kicks and giggles. In fact, there are days when I question my sanity and doubt myself as a musician. I know I am not the only one going through the struggle, and so here are 13 GIFs that I know my fellow music majors can relate to...
