When thinking about what to write this week, I asked my mom because moms give the best advice, and my mom told me to write about my favorite topic. So as you can tell from the title, besides my family and friends, fries are my next favorite thing.

So here is an article why fries are everything...

1. They come in all different delicious forms.

Waffle fries, sweet potato fries, curly fries, truffle fries, home fries, the list goes on.. and the best part is all fries no matter the type are delicious.

2. They are cheap.

A large fry at McDonald's is only $1.89, even a broke college kid like me can swing that.

3. They’re made from potatoes, potatoes are healthy, so technically that makes french fries healthy as well.

Technicalities also say that they are the perfect diet food.

4. You can add anything to them.

Every combination is unique and you can make it all your own.

5. One word: Cheese

Enough said.

6. You know who your real friends are if they share their fries.

The real test of a true friendship.

7. Any problem can be solved with fries.

No matter how bad your day or a situation may be going, fries will make everything better, I promise.

8. You can never get sick of them.

If someone let me, I would eat fries every day for a year, I promise.

9. Nights begin with fries and end with Adventures.

This is an actual picture of me after a fall.

10. Finally, FRIES BEFORE GUYS.

Girl, don't cry over a boy, get some fries, and get over him.

Every person, just like a French fry, is different.

Every person also loves different things.

But I can promise, no matter the size or shape,

I love all French fries just the same.

A Thank You Letter To My Morning Coffee

Because where would I be without you?

Dear morning coffee,

Thank you for being there for me before everyone else. For being there for me when I’m tired and grumpy and for always making everything better. I know I can be touchy at times. I mean, a girl needs her caffeine. You have been there for me through it all, early mornings in high school and now all-nighters in college. There have been times that I’ve walked around double fisting coffees, finals week am I right.

No matter, you have been the constant in my life, you have seen me through it all.

Through all the rough mornings where I quite literally looked like a mess, to the nights that lasted too long. Test after test, you have been there to get me through it, you have made sure that I was caffeinated enough to function and ace those tests. Though there are times where you end up mostly on my shirt because I’m a klutz but you’re still there for me.

You’re there for me in every form, latte, cappuccino, black coffee, and even a mocha.

Every day for years you have been the constant in my life, the constant that I know I’ll see every morning. You have become the highlight of my mornings. Without you, I don’t know what I would do. I know I’m not the only who realizes how great that you are and are beyond grateful for all that you give us.

Pretty much every college student realizes how much you provide us with, essentially the life that we need to get through it all. In the ones that aren’t in college are even in coffee’s debt and will forever be grateful for it. Morning coffee has become this sort of ritual that almost everyone goes through, it is the way that we are able to function.

So, thank you morning coffee, thank you for always being there for me to brighten my mornings and for helping me get through all those hard times. And thank you for the support you always give me through all those weeks of all-nighters and finals.

So once again thank you morning coffee to make sure that this is not how I always look.
