Why Your First Date Should ALWAYS Be At Costco

I’m here today to elaborate on the obvious – why Costco is the ideal first date location. @AlxndrTheDecent’s (aka Alex McMullen) Twitter thread received 24.8K retweets and 52.5K likes brought attention to this reality and show how America is in agreement. Not only does Costco provide free samples, but the ambiance and food are simple yet perfect.

Alex first emphasizes how the overall idea of a date at Costco acts as a test. Why? Because “if they are not down to eat at a Costco food court with you they are not worth your time.” And if that isn’t the most real thing you’ve read just stop reading now because you’re obviously more of the Walmart or Sam’s Club type.

Second, want to impress your date? Well, if you aren’t a member, show your date how bad you really are and sneak in through the exit. If that doesn’t do it for them, don’t fret because the Costco food court is about to save your ass.

Alright, this is where it all goes down. Let’s just take a moment to admire how nothing on the Costco menu is over $5.00 (except for a whole pizza but even that's only $10.00!!). There are a variety of options, but the menu is not too overwhelming. I agree with Alex, and suggest you get the hot dog, because first of all, for some reason Costco hot dogs are some of the best I’ve ever had (just check out its fan page: costcohotdog.com) and second of all, you get a hot dog AND drink for the whopping price of $1.50. With that being said Alex recommends whoever initiated the date should pay. (seriously you’ll probably spend less than $10.00)

Oh, so your date’s a vegetarian? Get ‘em a slice of pizza or a salad. Your date’s a vegan? Get ‘em a cup of water. So by now, your date might be falling in love with you. Keep the good vibes flowing and go get a non-fat frozen yogurt, strawberry sundae, or $1.00 churro to share with them. Sit on those “legendary white plastic picnic tables” under those red and white umbrellas as you finish up your meal.

Like Alex mentions, the longer you sit and talk about your date, the more they’ll notice all the families shopping, and then MAYBE just maybe they’ll want the same with you. Time will fly by and when your date finally comes to an end you’ll know if you’ve met your soulmate.

Well maybe not, but it’s a possibility. Don’t believe me? Go on a Costco date then get back to me.

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.
