Chicken Strips Really Are The Way To My Heart

How I fell in love with my St. Thomas tour guide aka the boy who bought me chicken strips.

Chicken Strips Really Are The Way To My Heart

My mom always said the way to a persons heart is through their stomach. Never in a million years did I think it would be the reason why I fell in love with somebody.

Fortunately for Jackson Roche, I am chicken strips number one fan. I could probably write a whole article on why chicken strips are important to me. If you want me to be your best friendbuy me chicken strips. If you want me to be your girlfriend buy me chicken strips. If you want me to love you forever, buy me chicken strips.

In all honesty you know you've found the love of your life, when he's binge eating chicken strips with you to Hannah Montana: The Movie on a Tuesday.

My home is wherever Jackson and the chicken strips are.

Funny thing is, he was my tour guide for the AFROTC program at the University of St. Thomas. In no way did I think I would walk away from that tour wanting to know more about some boy who looked good in AF blue.

Nor did I walk away knowing that he felt the same way about a girl who was too concussed for her own good.

Four days after our chicken strip filled day of fun, and everything purple he asked me to be his date the AFROTC Military Ball. Of course he asked an Army cadet to a Air-force Ball, but the anticipation of post dance chicken strips and a good time couldn't keep this girl away.

Unfortunately, there were no post dance chicken strips, and Jackson and I are legit the worst pair of dancers on the dance floor, but I found something even better; a best friend, a partner in life, a boy who is really bad at taking a hint 95% of the time(HOLD MY HAND PLEASE, AND THANK YOU), and a boyfriend who adores me just as much as he adores chicken strips.

My life has been nothing but great since I met him. He means more to me than chicken strips. I've found a boy who is the total package. Finding a boy who loves chicken strips as much as you is hard to find in 2016, but I'm lucky I did.

Glad we can fall in love with each other, and chicken strips everyday. I love you, Jackson Roche.

If I have learned one thing in my lifetime, it is that friends are a privilege. No one is required to give you their company and yet there is some sort of shared connection that keeps you together. And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.

Every kid in college and/or high school dreams of summer the moment they walk through the door on the first day back in September. It becomes harder and harder to focus in classes and while doing assignments as the days get closer. The winter has been lagging, the days are short and dark, and no one is quite themselves due to lack of energy and sunlight. Let's face it: life is ten times better in the summertime.
