What Does Your Favorite Sushi Roll Say About You?

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

California Roll

You are just starting your sushi experience and therefore probably a little timid. You don’t want to jump into anything too quickly so you take things slow. You aren’t afraid of the generic or basic because you know that you will like things that are already in your comfort zone. However, as they say, LIFE BEGINS OUTSIDE OF YOUR COMFORT ZONE, so enjoy your California rolls but maybe while you’re in a hot air balloon or doing something else adventurous!

Spicy Tuna Roll

You like everything with a little sizzle or extra kick; just enough to keep life spicy. You enjoy the new and exciting and are constantly on the move looking for something fun or new. However, it can be easy to get so caught up in the excitement of tomorrow that you lose track of the fun that can come today. Make sure you take some time out of each day to enjoy the simple things like the singing birds, bright sun and of course, some damn good sushi.

Godzilla Roll

You enjoy the decadent, fine things in life. At times you would rather save the expensive cost for a good time and go all out, rather than skim and save a few bucks. You aren’t afraid to fully enjoy yourself even if it comes at the cost of your piggy bank or time. Life is too short to not enjoy anything and everything, and who knows if there’s a tomorrow! It’s great to live each moment and day to the fullest because who knows about the future. But, make sure while you’re drifting in the clouds, you take the time to have at least one foot on the ground while you enjoy your adventures.

Sashimi

You really aren’t afraid of a challenge. You don’t beat around the bush and you like to get to the meat of the matter. You can take your raw fish without any rice, and can take a mean comment straight to the face and serve it right back! You aren’t afraid to stand up for yourself and say what you think. Being confident in yourself is key. So, don’t be afraid to stand your ground. However, make sure you at least give opportunity for other schools of thought. It can be a great learning experience to hear other people’s perspectives; maturity is understanding opposing point of views– even if you don’t agree with it.

Philadelphia Roll

Just like this roll, you like the unexpected. You aren’t afraid of the strange things you like, or your own weird antics because that is what makes you unique and you know that is what people love about you. Being normal and expected is overrated! You welcome the attention that comes with being different, a little crazy and even loud!

Unfamiliar with any of these rolls or sushi in general? Try out Oishi, one of the hidden gems of Olean. We don’t always have much, but this sushi joint for our little town is the real deal! Try it out and see if your personality matches with the sushi you love!
