Burrito? More like BAE-ritto!

Can you tell I'm craving one right now?

Burrito? More like BAE-ritto!
buzzfeed.com

When I scroll through Facebook, I see plenty of articles or "open letters" to mothers, fathers, boyfriends (what is a boyfriend and where do I get one?), or even dogs. While dogs and parents might be cool, there is something that stands out in my heart that I can no longer stay quiet about: burritos.

Yes, burritos. In a single flour tortilla, you can literally hold an adventure. Every time I go to any restaurant that sells burritos (hey, Chipotle), I feel as I am being welcomed home. I admit, sometimes I get a little overwhelmed. Having the usual burrito combination is playing it safe, but sometimes, one must step outside of their comfort zone and try something new. Maybe something spicy? Maybe treat yourself and get some guacamole? (Just kidding, that's expensive.) No matter what you put in your burrito, it will be a good experience, unless you're a bad person and mess it up.

Speaking of messing up, sometimes people make mistakes and the burrito can fall apart. That's OK. In the wise words of my hero, Hannah Montana, "Nobody's Perfect." If it falls apart, forget about the tears and get a fork! You have just created your very own burrito bowl. I am so proud of you.


The only thing that I do not like about burritos is that I cannot have them every day or I will start to look like a burrito (Boys, I don't look like a burrito, FYI).

So, why do I like burritos so much? I like them because it's something I can look forward to. When you first sit down and tear off the aluminum foil, exposing the edible art, it's like seeing your child for the very first time. OK, maybe not, but it's still a beautiful sight. The first bite of the warm, flavorful, and gentle tortilla into the masterpiece inside can only be described as pure bliss, and you know it. Finishing the burrito is bittersweet. You are satisfied and content with your meal, but it was also a goodbye that you might not have been ready for. It's gone, now what? Cry? Get another one? Tweet about it? Accept the food baby? All of the above?

Burritos are better than boys for so many reasons. You can't get in a fight with a burrito, you never have to worry about your burrito cheating on you because you hold it the entire time, and a burrito can't break your heart, only your bank account.

Well, what are you waiting for? Go get a burrito!

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.

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.
