10 Times "The Big Bang Theory" Nailed What It's Like To Be Lactose Intolerant

About a year-and-a-half ago, I found out that I am lactose intolerant. It's tough to go from loving cheese and ice cream your entire life to wanting to die if you accidentally forget to tell the waitress no cheese in your omelet. Living with lactose intolerance definitely presents its obstacles, even though it isn't the most serious health issue to have. Here you have the cast of The Big Bang Theory to give you the 411 on the inability to process dairy. Also, shout out to my boy Leonard Hoffstadter; I feel your pain, man.

1. When 99% of free food is pizza.


2. When you have a few bites of your friend's slice, and they pay the price.



3. When people start talking about the dairy you can't have.



4. When someone tries to tell you what does and doesn't have dairy.


5. When your friends want to get something with dairy and you can actually participate.


6. When your friends decide to drag you to an ice cream shop with no dairy-free options.



7. When that cookie dough ice cream is just calling your name, but you know your stomach won't be happy.


8. When you decide to really enjoy this rare treat and go with the double-scoop.



9. When your friend warns you how bad an idea that is.


10. The aftermath.


And so the cycle begins all over again.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

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.
