When You're Too In Love With Food

I love food more than I love myself.

There are many things I love in this world. As I am a very loving and accepting person. Not to boast, but I think it is something to be proud of. Recently there is one thing I realize I love more and more each day: food.

Almost everytime we go out with friends, where do we go? We go, “get some food”.

Once you get somewhere, you chat about the menu items while imagining what it will taste like. Then, you will slip into a conversation about favorite foods and where you find the best eats.

Some people might even bond on the type of foods they like whether it’s pickiness or cultural preferences. I mean, people who eat the same foods tend to develop relationships. I know nobody likes dating someone who is super picky when they eat everything in the entire world. Recently I have met a lot more people who dislike the same foods as me and I feel like I can connect to them on a completely new level.

Ever since I was born, I hated tomatoes and anything related to it. It wasn’t until about two years ago that I started enjoying pizza. When there is too much sauce on it, I can hardly choke it down. That is the same with spaghetti sauce and everyone thought that was weird, but once I got to college nobody could afford spaghetti sauce anymore and they claimed to have never liked sauce on their spaghetti because butter is the best way to go anyway. Even though I know that some people's parents probably forced them to eat a lot of these foods so they had to pretend they liked them. It was weird for them that my parents didn’t force me to eat all foods that their parents forced them to eat.

Anyway, I just wanted to share a few foods I am most thankful for: pasta, potatoes, chicken, cheese, doughnuts, berries, cashews, cinnamon toast crunch, coconut, eggs, rice, stuffing, burgers, coffee, tea, cake, soup, zucchini, asparagus, cookies, ice, carrots, brown sugar, butter, bread, ice cream, turkish delight, balsamic dressing, veggie burgers, protein bars, pepperoni, sausage, and more.

I think I am going to start eating healthier though. Just thought I would get out my last words to say

goodbye to a few of these foods that I have come to love in these weeks of stress eating.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
