13 Things You'll Only Relate To If You Can't Cook, Like, AT ALL

In This Article:

When you come to college you will either float or sink when you make the move to an apartment from living on campus, because you'll actually have to cook for yourself for once instead of walking to a dining hall.

So here's a list of 13 things you've definitely experienced if you don't know how to cook, like, at all. The struggle is real!

1. Having fast food employees know your order just from seeing you.

2. Ordering to-go from restaurants just to eat somewhat healthy.

3. Your freezer is mostly filled with frozen meals that you cook in the microwave or the oven.

4. The microwave is your best friend in the kitchen.

5. Your pantry is stocked with all different types of pasta and pre-made sauce in a can or jar.

The pasta ranges from ramen noodles to mac n' cheese, or just plain pasta that you can mix with any sauce.

6. You send photos of meals you have cooked to your parents for appraisal.

7. You call your parents when you have questions about something you are cooking.

8. All your recipes have five or less ingredients.

9. Even with few ingredients and direction you mess up.

10. You follow many food accounts to look at amazing meals that you wish you could cook.

11. You over cook chicken all the time, even with a meat thermometer.

12. You have no patience when making a meal.

13. You buy certain foods in bulk to save money because you know you'll go through it within a month.

Don't worry, the holidays are right around the corner and you can get some homecooked meals without having to cook them for yourself.

birthday party

My birthday has never been my favorite holiday. I've found that I'm more excited to celebrate my friends' and family members' birthdays more than my own. I don't like being the center of attention, so I usually celebrate over dinner with a small group of family and friends. This way, I can enjoy myself naturally without feeling like I have to entertain everyone and make sure they are satisfied. In the past when I've had large parties, I was so nervous that people weren't perfectly content that I didn't enjoy myself at my own celebration.

College Informations

Most of us have already started the spring semester, and for those of you who haven't started yet, you suck.

It seems like coming back from winter break wouldn't really be a break all things considered, since we all come back to school and pick up right where we left off. We know exactly what to expect, yet we're unprepared every single time.

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.
