What Does Your Comfort Food Say About You?
unknown

This isnā€™t a quiz, but a preference. Do you like hotdogs or hamburgers? Pizza? What do you eat when he ( or she) breaks your heart and now you donā€™t have dinner plans Saturday night? What are you eating? For me? It is a burger. Juicy and thick with cheese and mayo and bacon. But whatā€™s yours?

1. Pizza

If you engorge on pizza when you are in need of some comfort, it says that you like quick and easy. You most likely enjoy it with someone else so you probably socialize well. You are a quick thinker with good instincts as well. Good choice.

2. Spaghetti/Lasagna

If you the time to make spaghetti or lasagna, you need to think. You probably keep a few good friends instead of a lot of fake ones. You think things through before acting and you probably the kind of person that comes up with a good comeback days later. It is good to be a thinker, and the food is great.

3. Burgers

My personal favorite. We need some time to think, but not much. We are hot headed and quick on our feet. Most of the time we like to get down and dirty and we arenā€™t afraid of dirt. We try to stay on track but our mind is very scattered and sometimes we need someone to remind us what we are truly upset about.

4. Mac nā€™ Cheese

Simple. Mac nā€™ cheese is the thing your mom made when she had mountains of laundry to do and three kids to feed. It takes you back to the days when everything was simple and you didnā€™t have things to decide about. It is easy which means you are easygoing. Lastly, it is something almost everyone loves so you are probably well liked and tend to like people as well. Yum.

5. Ice Cream

If you eat a gallon of ice cream, you probably have some irrationality to you--which isnā€™t always bad. You probably have a lot of friends and you probably like to sit at home and netflix and chill with your friends instead of someone special. You need the girlsā€™ night out because you love your friends more than anyone else

6. Chinese

Take out is the best. You would rather focus on the problem at hand instead of cooking, so you order out. If you order out Chinese, you probably want to be alone to contemplate your problems. You are determined and focused on your goals.

7. Mexican

You want spicy and greasy, which is easily accomplished with Mexican cuisine. If you eat on some enchiladas when you need a hug, you probably just need your space. You probably want to be alone, unless your best-friend is around. You more than likely need your best friend more than anything and you need her/him to talk out loud to, think out loud to. Delicious.

8.Fast Food

You want to engorge and be cheap about it. This indicated that you love food and would rather eat your feelings than talk about them. You probably have lots of friends but only a few that you talk to regularly and actually like to be around. You are on the go constantly and know what you want without much thought. Nug life.







This is not a list done by any sort of professional, just me. It may or may not be very accurate, but this is what I hear when someone tells me their comfort food.

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, Iā€™m sure youā€™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 classā€™ 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!
