With the start of lent on Friday, there are a lot of things I am slowly realizing I will never be able to truly give up...
1. Music
I think I would actually die if I wasn't able to listen to music.
2. Driving
Driving is my therapy. Not having my car actually gives me anxiety.
3. Chocolate
I'm gonna have my time of the month sometime during lent, no way I could give up chocolate then!
4. Makeup
I know that God made me naturally beautiful, yeah yeah yeah... but ya girl needs her makeup.
5. TV
TV is just one of those things you need to decompress... there is no way I could give that up.
6. Social Media
Social media is my life.. and lent is not about giving up your life.
7. Texting
Texting=all my communication ever.
8. Meat
The thought of not having a cheeseburger for over a month makes me too sad.
9. Sarcasm
Sarcasm is all I speak, so do you want me to just not speak for lent or????
10. Sugar
I will actually have a nonsugar crash if I don't have sugar....
11. Cussing
This one is bad... but every once in a while, I really just need to let out some steam with some cuss words.
12. My Phone
My entire life is literally in one box.
13. YouTube
Again, just something that I like to use to help me relax.
14. Pizza
It's just so good...
15. Starbucks
Okay, let's be real... I was named Starbucks queen this year in my sorority, I would NEVER be able to give up Starbucks.
16. Writing
This one is kind of random for most people, but I would die if I was not able to write anymore. On Odyssey, on my personal blog, or in my daily journal. I just love to write and get all of my feelings out.
17. Complaining
This one kind of goes with cussing... it just really releases a lot of built up feelings.
18. Shopping
They call it retail therapy for a reason...
19. Instagram filters.
Ain't nobody got time for a non-aesthetically pleasing Instagram.
20. Takeout
Uber eats anyone? (shout out to Olivia)
21. Naps
Truly the only way I survive day to day.
22. Chick Fil A
Those milkshakes and chicken sandwiches, though.
23. Selfies
It's good to love yourself!
24. Chipotle
Don't even get me started on how I would feel if I had to give up Chipotle...
25. School
I guess this is very popular for this year, but y'all are telling me you just ain't going to school for 40 days?
26. Procrastination
There is no way I would never be able to not procrastinate.
27. Ice Cream
I scream, you scream, we all scream for more ice cream!!!
28. Staying Up Late
All of my finest work is done between the hours of 12 and 5 AM.
29. The Internet
So how did people actually get information before Google?
30. My Computer
Once again, my whole life is on my computer... I would never be able to give it up.
31. Taking Photos
I just love taking photos of everything.
32. Sorority Apparel
It's over half of my entire wardrobe...
33. Snapchat
Overall, I would never want to give up social media... but I love Snapchat. I could never give it up.
34. Singing
Like music, singing is my therapy. I would never be able to give that up.
35. Laziness
I don't see how people can "give this up" but I know there is no way in hell I would be able to.
36. Bread
Like Oprah, I love bread!!!
37. Religion
This one again might seem weird to some people, but I would truly not be able to give up my religion during lent. Which might seem contradictory to some because lent is all about reconnecting in faith, but some people do try to give up religion.
38. That 70's Show
Forever my favorite binging show. I will never be able to give it up man!
39. People
40 days without people? Um please do not sign me up.
40. Gluten
Let's be real, everything that's good has got gluten in it.
