A Love Letter To My One and Only: Grilled Cheese
Publik Works

My Dearly Beloved (or should I say heavenly divine sandwich of the gods),

I am writing you this love letter to express my unconditional love for all the hard work you do for me. From your perfectly crisp outside, all the way to your mouthwatering layers of cheeses galore, you are everything to me.

I’d first like to point out your stunning figure and golden brown complexion. For most sandwiches, it takes hours for them to even try to look how you do. For you, it’s just natural. Others try to copy your beauty like that “Monte Cristo” sandwich, but we all know adding a slice of deli ham to the mix just ruins and disgraces your simple elegance.

Some say your crust is a little rough around the edges, mighty grilled cheese, but you know I like it a little rough every once in a while.


This may sound dramatic, but the art of your perfectly melted layers of cheese leaves me breathless every time. I know how much work and effort it takes for you to look your best for me, and I want you to know I truly appreciate it.

As I await our lunch date every day, I can’t help but get a little nervous. Just thinking about your beautiful form makes me feel like the luckiest girl in the world to have you.

The perfect blend of toasty perfection on your outside and gooey flawlessness on the inside practically leaves me in tears every time we meet. Many people have tried telling me that you’re not right for me, and it’s an unhealthy relationship to have, but we both know we aren’t good for anyone else.

And how could I write you this love letter without even mentioning your heavenly companion, tomato soup.


You two work together to make my taste buds whirl in a merry-go-round every single time. How does a duo like you two know how to satisfy my needs and expectations all in one simple bite? If you ask me, I think you make the perfect combination.

So thank you, grilled cheese, for making me want to be a better person. Making me want to succeed in life and most importantly, filling my stomach with your perfection whenever I ask. You are truly one of a kind.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?

Finals week is upon us. It is a magical time of year during which college students everywhere flock to the library in attempt to learn a semester's worth of knowledge in only a week. For some students, it's their first time in the library all semester, maybe ever. Others have slaved away many nights under the fluorescent lights, and are slightly annoyed to find their study space being invaded by amateurs. While these newbies wander aimlessly around the first floor, hopelessly trying to find a table, the OGs of the library are already on the third floor long tables deep into their studies. Here is a few signs that you may live in the library, whether you'd like to admit it or not.
