The TCU 22: The Places We Gain It

The TCU 22: The Places We Gain It

1. Chick-Fil-A

Yes, especially being a freshman and realizing that BLUU food is nearly inedible, this is where I spend my time. But you have to admit, the eight piece and regular fry with Chick-Fil-A sauce makes you just want to crawl into bed and cry for a little, right?

2. Dutch’s

This is the only place to order a burger with a side of heartburn and feel good about it. I would want the bacon bleu burger to be my last meal on earth in all honesty.

3. Whataburger

This is the only place you can go at 3 a.m. every Sunday morning for three honey butter chicken biscuits and a large fry for that “Idk if I want breakfast or dinner” mood.

4. Toppers

I will admit that my suite-mates and I engaged in Toppers Tuesday every Tuesday this semester, where pizza was buy one get one free. I don’t regret a thing

5. Fuzzy’s

Thank you, TCU, for placing this delicious establishment within walking distance of campus. I want a bathtub in my room solely so I can bathe in your queso.

6. Chipotle

Yes I know guacamole is extra, and yes, I would like five scoops of it on top of chicken, pinto beans, brown rice, cheese, and pico de gallo in a burrito bowl to go.

7. Joe T. Garcia's

Holy cow, I did not ever expect the food to be so good. Also, serving sizes are huge, so make sure you’re wearing loose clothing when you walk in.

8. Mellow Mushroom

I remember the first time I walked into Mellow Mushroom. I remember thinking: is this what heaven looks like?

9. Kona Grill

Again, my suite-mates and I engaged in another weekly ritual: Wasabi Wednesday. Though it is not quite as unhealthy as Toppers Tuesday, we can’t say it's salad.

10. Pizza Snob

Okay, no lie: best pizza I have ever had.

11. Starbucks

I walked on to campus in August with over $125 of Starbucks graduation gift cards. Guess how much I have left.

12. Ol' South Pancake House

Never have I ever been able to get into this selective breakfast establishment on a Sunday morning – but now it's on my bucket list.

13. Buffalo Bros

So I am sad to say I have never tried Buffalo Bros, but this is where you can always find my group of friends. “Where are y—wait, never mind.”

14. Raising Canes

When you run out of campus cash but want something that tastes a lot like Chick-Fil-A, this is your place.


15. Smoothie King

What? No. I lose weight going in there. Keep telling yourself that.

16. Taco Bell

Honestly have no idea where one is around campus, but I constantly hear people wanting a Baja Blast, so…

17. Sweet Sammies

So we’ve eaten breakfast, two lunches, and four dinners. Dessert?



18. Potbelly's

I had my very first potbelly sandwich the other day. WARNING: once experienced, you will always want more.

19. Einstein Bros. Bagels

This is the most conveniently located establishment adjacent to my dorm. Thank you God for giving me the gift of a bagel thin with nova lox.

20. iHop

When you’re up studying until 4 a.m. and you’re kind of like, hey, maybe if I just go eat breakfast now, I can skip sleeping altogether.

21. Union Grounds

“Hey Big, can you pay for my Doritos, M&M’s, Easy Mac, Bagel Bites, Steel City Pops, Ben & Jerry’s, and coffee from market square?” “Is that all?” -- actual conversation that happened inside of union grounds.

22. Market Square

We were all at this point where this is where we ate all day every day. It was for one of two reasons: either we spent all the rest of our money at one of the establishments listed above, or we just really missed Cindy.


So thanks, TCU, for the 22.

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.
