A Smile a Day... Even on State Patty's?

Of course! Everyone smiles on State Patty's with the drunken camaraderie you're supposed to experience walking around fratland or through downtown. On the contrary, my friends and I got sick of the obnoxious non-Penn State students and headed back to the dorms in the early afternoon. But first, we needed to eat. What better day to avoid the hustle and bustle of downtown with all the visitors than to spend some meal points at Redifer? Salad, sandwiches, cookies, chips, Chinese, or Mexican? Being the indecisive person that I am, I couldn't choose between the latter two and treated myself to both- it's a holiday, right?
In the line to order my naked burrito, the lady making it initially thought I was the most hilarious person in the world by verbalizing the word "naked", so I decided to go along with it, continue the jokes, and make her day (which I did, by the way). My friend and I smiled and laughed while asking her to put everything on the burrito, even all the types of cheese and all the types of beans and sauces, saying things like "You got it girl! Put some more of that nacho sauce on there yeah!". We asked her what she recommended, and if it was the best naked burrito she had ever made-- she said yes, and the whole time looked like she was going to pee her pants from laughing so hard. Even when we were paying for our naked burritos, we looked back and she was still beaming with joy while serving her next few customers. I like to think that she looked like that for the rest of the day! Since that Saturday, I've seen her around Redifer commons a few times and she laughs and says hello. I'm glad I could be such a memorable customer.
