Over the years, I have developed what some may call an addiction to coffee. At times, I would consider it my lifeline. College is hard...life is hard... and even when nobody else is around, coffee has my back. To be honest, it's the main reason why I'm even surviving at this point. So here's a small list and a "thank you" to coffee for helping me do the hard things in life.
Reasons why coffee is actual #bae
1) I am an irresponsible human who goes to sleep way too late and wakes up way too early, resulting in the inability to function unless caffeine is a consistent part of my day.
2) Nothing soothes the soul of an overly emotional female quite like coffee.
3) Night class is the worst thing that has ever happened to college students and it simply is intolerable without my loyal coffee sidekick.
4) I will graciously accept the title of "basic white girl" because nothing makes my day quite like a perfectly made pumpkin spice latte.
5) Sorority recruitment took up my entire life for two months and death was a real possibility if caffeine hadn't been there to save the day.
6) Road trips make me uncontrollably tired and coffee keeps me from sleep-driving (I'm told that this is not a recommended practice?)
7) I am tired...all the time. Coffee is the blessed lie that makes me believe I am not.
8) Meeting up with friends or going on dates at restaurants sucks when you're a vegetarian and a picky eater...coffee shops save the day.
9) Perfectly foamed lattes should be considered an actual art form.
10) I can motivate myself to do the crappy things in life like study for the Praxis if I get to reward myself with coffee while I do it.
11) Teaching 26 middle schoolers at once can be a real challenge unless coffee is there to remind you that everything is going to be okay.
12) Coffee makes me happy, and sometimes you just need a little (or a lot) of happiness to start your day.
