Struggles Only Texans Living In NYC Know

We came. We saw. We really wish we had some queso right now.

Lack of REAL Mexican Food

(Okay, Tex-Mex. Whatever, It's real to us.)

I have no idea how anyone from here has lived their lives without having proper fajitas and rice & beans. Native New Yorkers, DO YOU EVEN KNOW?

The Impossibility of Sandals

lnt.org

Back when you lived in TX, these were the only shoes you needed.

Now if you try to wear sandals, your feet will look like you've been hiking through a garbage site - Which isn't too far from the truth.

Winter

hercampus.com

What even are the seasons? Why are things not generally kept at 80 degrees all year long?

I want just to go 5 feet from my door and not have wear a parka.

Blue Bell Ice Cream

(WHAT RECALL)

There is literally no better ice cream than Blue Bell.

NYC, I get you're obsessed with Haagen Dazs, but you've never tasted Double Dutch Chocolate. Freaking life changing.

The Subway

Remember when you could go to anywhere, anytime when you wanted?

THOSE DAYS ARE OVER.

We're all at the mercy of the MTA schedule from now on.

Whataburger

3 words: Honey-Butter Biscuits.

SURE there's Shake Shack. But those tiny burgers are nothing compared the glory of everything served at Whataburger; even the soda tastes better.

Commute Time

nydailynews.com

Why does it take like 40 minutes to get anywhere?

Because life sucks, thats why.

Having Intense School pride

It could be Baylor, UT, A&M, or one of the other many schools in the great state. We will always talk about how amazing it was when we were students there.

We feel you McConaughey, we feel you.

Walmart

giphy.com

Yeah, yeah. We said how much hated it. But wasn't it great to pick up everything you needed in one place? One stop shopping is nothing but a memory.

We chose this life, now we must suffer for it.

(GOD I MISS WALMART)

Everything Being So Damn Expensive

giphy.com

What kind of hell have we entered where a $9 meal is considered cheap? and $1200 for rent is a bargain? NYC that's where.

We keep telling ourselves we're living the dream, but everyone we know back home could live a life of luxury with these prices.

Seeing the Stars

buzzfeed.com

Remember, "the stars at night are big and bright, deep in the heart of Texas."

NOT HERE.

Chick-Fil-A

Okay, there's one at NYU (which FYI is half the price as it is in Texas). But the judgement you get from NYU undergrads who know you don't belong there is almost too much to handle.

Almost.
