What Your Campus Panini Says About You

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at Nottingham chapter.

So, you’ve arrived at the library ready for an intense session of work and caffeine pills to bash out an essay due in 24 hours. You scan your way through to hell, set yourself down in your favourite spot, and prepare. To do this though, there is one choice that needs to be made: The Panini Decision. You venture up to the Hallward Library Café, and if you’re lucky and a fresh batch has just made, you are met with too many options. You reach in and make your choice. A choice that is even more important than whether or not to go to Ocean and scrap the essay, your vote in the general election, and even what to name your child!  A choice that surprisingly says way too much about who YOU really are…

1. Cheese and Tomato

Some may say your bland and have no taste-buds. Ignore them. You like what you like and that’s okay. You have a one-set personality, which involves sitting in the same spot in the libs every-day, choosing the same meal option at a restaurant most of the time, and deciding on the same outfit for a night out because let’s face it its always worked wonders for you. So why change now!

2. Ham and Cheese

It’s clear that you attempt to spice up your life occasionally. It’s an option that proves one thing: you’re reliable. Always there to make people laugh, consistently proving yourself on the dancefloor, and obsessed with cheese. The more cheese the better. Perfect for a night out in ocean and a lunch option.

3. Tuna Melt

In simple terms, you’re the marmite of the group. Some people love you, some people hate you. You’ve got a powerful personality with a limited portion of cheese. This means you come off as fishy and too suspicious. But when you’re loved, YOU’RE LOVED!

4. Spicy Meatball

You’re a definite risk taker – willing to be adventurous and step out of the box and throw caution to the wind to enjoy yourself to the fullest. You like to mix it up in both your lunch, and your life, adding a perfect contribution to any group.

5. Chicken Fajita

You’re in demand. You seem to always run into someone you know and on a night out there’s always a faint call of your name from some distant corner of the club. You’re a bit of a risk taker but most importantly you have passion. Also, you’re a little bit cultured. Well done for the diversity in life and in panini choices!

6. Non-paninis

It’s hard to even utter these words, let alone believe they exist. You are one of those. You venture over to Boots for your meal deal or choose one of the extortionate sandwiches which run for £3 compared to a paninis money saving value of £2.75. We do not judge you. But you need to understand what you’re missing out on.

7. Pack ‘Lunchers’

All I can say is you’ve got your life together. You’re way too good at adulting and don’t deserve a panini. But please teach me your ways because my bank is taking a hit from the campus café.

There you go. Now you know what your favourite Hallward Campus Panini says about you and I’m sure you feel much more educated on the topic. Some final parting words: in order to eat the panini you must BE the panini. Shout out to the Circle and shout out to paninis for getting us through the hard times.

My name is Leah Hemmings and I've just returned from a year abroad in America and I'm about to start my final year in History and American Studies at the University of Nottingham. Even though I am in my final year, this is my first time working with Her Campus and I'm really looking forward to what is in store for me. As you can tell from my job title I mainly enjoy all things entertainment and always make sure to watch a new film everyday (primarily because I get to veg out while watching them). At the same time I make sure to keep updated on anything new coming out in case its really juicy and worth a watch. Having the opportunity to write about something I love and enjoy and being able to share it with other entertainment lovers gets me excited about what I'm writing even more. Alongside watching films I love a good read and obviously writing as well as a nice nap here and there. I look forward to finishing my year at Nottingham with Her Campus and can't wait to share some of my blog pieces with everyone.
