Ode To Taco Bell

29

A declaration of love to everyone's favorite late night food stopAppreciating all that is Taco Bell

Oh, Taco Bell, or as the pure of heart affectionately calls you, T-Bell. Or, as the scum of the Earth call you, Toxic Hell. Oh, how you complete me. Just the thought of you makes me long for you. You never fail to fill the empty void deep inside of me. And how it angers me so when the haterz belittle you. Just a burrito? Oh, you are so much more than that.

How do I love thee? Let me count the ways. That first bite, oh, what pure bliss that first bite is. The tortilla, like smooth silky satin, gently enveloped around the most divine amalgam of ingredients, flavors blending in a flirtatious tango.

The beans, so magical that they could grow a beanstalk. Tomato slices so succulent that they explode with flavor at the slightest touch and lettuce as crispy as freshly-made bacon in the morning.

Rice as pure and soft as the first snow of winter, with sour cream so refined that it heightens the senses and so creamy that your tongue can barely feel it.

And the beef, ground up so perfectly that it is finer than sand, yet, softer than clouds with a flavor so exquisite that it brings tears to the eyes. Or, if you prefer, chicken or steak, each meat marinated in what seems to be nectar and ambrosia, so juicy that every single bite floods your mouth with a heavenly flavor and as tender as the breast of an angel.

And the cheese. Oh, the cheese, the cheesiest cheese that tastes like the fusion of every cheese known and unknown to man. The aroma, so enticing that children flock to it from miles around.

All of these ingredients, swirl in your mouth, break apart and combine again in a fugue of sweets and savor so delightful. This is no mere wrap of grilled meat clothed in a flour tortilla. This is God, speaking to us through food.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.

Top 10 Reasons My School Rocks!

Why I Chose a Small School Over a Big University.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
