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.

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 clichƩs, 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 donā€™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. Donā€™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 youā€™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. Youā€™re running late because youā€™ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterdayā€™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.

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.
