What Your Favorite Ice Cream Flavor Says About You

Whenever I am asked what my favorite food is, I usually feel inclined to say ice cream. Although I love all things cheesy and carb-loaded, ice cream is by far my favorite dessert. To be fair, I'd say pizza and ice cream are probably tied for my favorite foods, but I eat ice cream more than pizza, so for the sake of this article I am going to go with ice cream being my favorite food. Clearly, I'm living a very healthy, nutritious lifestyle.

Pizza flavored ice cream. Heaven? Probably not, ew.

I think I could eat ice cream for breakfast, lunch and dinner. For as long as I remember, my flavor of choice was chocolate chip cookie dough. Even when I venture to Ben & Jerry's, unless they have "Half-Baked," I will stay loyal to what I know is right and order chocolate chip cookie dough. While I know many might say that this is not true, I believe that your ice cream flavor of choice says a lot about you as a person. For instance, chocolate chip cookie dough lovers are those who love surprises. They are risk-takers, and they are explorers. Chocolate chip cookie dough eaters are not too serious, but can be when needed. Chocolate chip cookie dough lovers are also silly; they love to have a good time but are structured and organized.

Next, for the vanilla lovers; although many refer to vanilla being basic, I think choosing vanilla over all the other flavors demonstrates your simplicity and appreciation for true beauty. Vanilla lovers, to me, are poised and pristine and embrace traditions. While not the most adventurous, these eaters are very thoughtful, always looking to make others around them happy.

Chocolate lovers, on the other hand, are more adventurous and indulgent. When I see someone eating chocolate ice cream, it signals to me that they are elegant and also poised in nature. These eaters cherish taste and value rationality, always thinking strategically and straight-forward to solve problems, etc. Chocolate lovers enjoy learning about culture and people with diverse backgrounds.

Next, onto another of the classic ice cream flavors. Coffee. Coffee lovers are what I would call "chill." These people are very kind and love to relax. Although very easy to get along with, coffee lovers are also very independent, often found in obscure places reading a book or drinking coffee. These people are also more likely to go with the flow, and do not enjoy complaining about anything. A mix of introverts and extroverts.

Cookies and cream lovers are funny. They are always cracking jokes and making those around them feel good and laugh. Along with having a good sense of humor, these eaters are very sweet, enjoying every minute life has to offer. Cookies and cream lovers are impulsive, acting spontaneously when it comes to making decisions, and they are often flirtatious as well.

Next, mint chocolate chip. Mint chocolate chip lovers are very confident, but not overconfident. They are whole-hearted and caring and will always go out of their way to help you. Mint chip lovers are also very easy to get along with, as they are also calm and willing to listen. These people enjoy finding plot twists in life and making the best of every situation.

Lastly, strawberry ice cream lovers are on the more introverted side. They are very sophisticated in their thoughts and are always put together, ready to face on whatever the day has for them. Strawberry lovers are deliberate thinkers and enjoy setting goals for themselves. These people are serious about their passions and reliable in nature.

Personally for me, even though I usually tend to pick chocolate chip cookie dough whenever I go out to ice cream, I've realized that all ice cream flavors have a lot to offer and bring to the table. In order to be more adventurous, I should indulge in different flavors that I may not realize I enjoy. I should never be strayed from ordering a flavor because I think it is too simple or basic, as sometimes the simplest foods are the most delicious. There is a lot to be said about what each ice cream flavor says about you, and these are only the classic flavors - there are so many more out there. Never be afraid to try something new or a flavor or food that doesn't typically fall within your personality or comfort zone.

What's your flavor?

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.

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.
