Freshman year, I was notorious among my friends for ordering pizza from Sargent Peps at or after midnight—and falling asleep before it arrived.

When we were in the “small dorms,” each dorm had its own chef who made breakfast to order, along with lunch and dinner. During finals, he would leave extra sandwiches, cookies, and brownies (and fruit!) for us in the fridge.

When I was a freshman, Domino’s pizza had $5 cheese on Thursdays. I would buy two or three and eat them until Sunday. My other go-to was D.P. Dough’s Buffalo chicken calzones.

One night freshman year, we were doing our traditional order from Wings Over when someone had the bright idea to mix it up a bit. Instead of the usual go-to of honey BBQ, we ordered the hottest flavor – “After Burner.” When the wings arrived, my nose started burning and I immediately regretted this decision. Two of my friends who absolutely LOVE spicy food dug in right away and somehow managed to stay smiling as their faces turned bright red and tears began rolling down their cheeks. I, on the other hand, took one bite and was confined to laying on the floor for the next few minutes until my newly ordered D.P. Dough arrived.

Nothing was better than Ted’s Grinders, but for a late-night emergency there were only two places to go: Wawa or Store 24.
