If You Don't Have A Wawa In Your Hometown I Feel Bad For You, Son

I got 99 problems but Sheetz ain't one.

If You Don't Have A Wawa In Your Hometown I Feel Bad For You, Son

Actually, Sheetz is a very real problem for me. In fact, it's all 99 problems that I have going on for me right now.

In two weeks I am going to be moving back to school in south central PA, and the existence of Wawa is, well, nonexistent. For another entire academic year, I am going to have to suffer with having to eat the nasty food that Sheetz produces.

Am I being dramatic about this? Maybe so, but I grew up in the outskirts of Philly, so it's safe to say that I grew up on Wawa. In fact, there are 4 Wawa's within a 10-minute radius of my house. So 2 years ago, when I moved to central PA for college, I knew it was going to be a big change for me because instead of Wawa, I was going to have to live with a Sheetz being just down the road for me.

I remember going into my freshman year--I was so naive thinking that Sheetz wasn't going to be THAT bad.

I was so wrong. Sheetz is disgusting.

And before anyone gets their panties in a twist, let it be known that Wawa was voted America's favorite sandwich shop this year, so you can get out of here talking about Sheetz being even remotely better.

And Wawa is superior for obvious reasons. It has quality food and they actually know how to make a hoagie. My roommate and I both grew up in the same hometown, and the first time we got hoagies from Sheetz, we both looked at each other with a look that can only be described as "WTF am I even eating right now?"

How do you mess up an Italian hoagie?

Wawa just tastes better than Sheetz. It has fresher, healthier food whereas Sheetz just has lots and lots of fried food that half the time doesn't even come out warm, but ice cold.

And remember that nobody can argue that Sheetz tastes better because was Sheetz voted America's favorite sandwich shop? No, it wasn't, and for VERY obvious reasons. I've never had bad food from Wawa, but I've had bad food from Sheetz every time.

Every. Single. Time.

And Wawa is a cheaper alternative as well. Sheetz is outrageously priced, and every time I eat there I want to hit myself because I can't believe that I just paid $8 (That's right, $8!) for a chicken wrap that had one piece of chicken and some cheese and lettuce in it.

At Wawa, I have never spent that much on just one item. I am constantly shocked when I go to the register to pay for my order and find out that my hoagie is only $4 at Wawa. You get more for your buck, and it's actually worth what you spend.

Wawa also has Hoagiefest, which is when any classic sized hoagie is $4.99. That's an amazing deal! Does Sheetz have anything like that? That's a hard no. Once again, Wawa proves to be the cheaper option.

How can you actually believe that Sheetz is better than Wawa in any way, shape or form? The kitchen may always be open at Sheetz, but the greater Philadelphia/New Jersey area wishes it would just close and be replaced with Wawa.

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.
