As college students, we experience an increase in our range of choices as we leave the house and grow older. However, some days it feels too monotonous; the same routine, same classes, same everything. It just gets boring. We have free choice, but as college students, we are simultaneously bound to the rules and guidelines our professors give us. You may be thinking, when was the last time I really did whatever I wanted to do? If only there was a place in existence that gave you pure choice and utter agency, you’d feel like a kid in a candy store.
I have news. This kind of place is real. It is only a few miles away, actually.
It’s froyo.
Froyo is so empowering because it gives you ultimate agency. Where else can you perfectly customize your order? You never have to choose between flavors or toppings, because you can just get all of them! It might feel silly to think that frozen yogurt gives people agency, but it is true.
When I walk into a froyo establishment, it feels like the possibilities are endless. I am simply full of childlike wonder. I’d venture to say that experiences like these are what we all need from time to time.
