A Breakup Letter To Basho

I puked up 13 dollars worth of sushi that night.

Oh the great George Sherman Union. The hub of college students looking for a quick meal between or after a long day of classes.

And if you're anything like me, you get sick of the same stir fry and salad bar they have at the dining hall. So, the George Sherman Union is your best bet. If you know anything about me, you know I am a huge sushi lover. It's my favorite food. And I love going to Basho, not only because it is convenient, but because their sushi bowls are so good. My typical order is white rice, seaweed, cucumbers, avocado, spicy tuna, and unagi sauce. But on September 22, I had a bad encounter with the that order. I brought the food back to my dorm and ate it while watching "Bojack Horseman."

Everything seemed perfectly normal. The sushi didn't taste weird or have a smell to it. But an hour after consuming my meal, I was overcome by a nauseous feeling that spread throughout my body. I had to rush to the bathroom and I vomited about eight times that night. Even the act of falling asleep became difficult because I still had the feeling of puking. Critics to my argument might say it could have been something else I ate but the last time I ate was around noon and I had a turkey sandwich and a cucumber and tomato salad from the dining hall.

I'm utterly convinced my sickness was caused by the bad sushi I ate.

I understand that I went rather late in the day close to closing time, but that isn't an excuse to serve food that can make people sick. I'm curious to see if anyone else got sick because of Basho. I've always heard rumors but I never thought it would happen to me.

I think the hardest thing about going away to college is figuring out how to become an adult. Leaving a household where your parents took care of literally everything (thanks, Mom!) and suddenly becoming your own boss is overwhelming. I feel like I'm doing a pretty good job of being a grown-up, but once in awhile I do something that really makes me feel like I'm #adulting. Twenty-somethings know what I'm talking about.

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!
