13 Daily Struggles Of A Caffeine Addict

It's finals time.

That means only a couple of things are on fellow college student's minds: how much knowledge they have to cram into their brains, food, sleep (or lack thereof) and coffee.

"DID SOMEONE SAY COFFEE?!"

Now, many college students turn to caffeine in hopes of remembering everything stored away in the crevices of their brain from that far away land called "the beginning of the semester." But for many of us, caffeine is not just a necessity over finals week — it's a lifestyle.

In celebration of the best kind of "liquid courage," here are thirteen struggles every caffeine addict can relate to.

1. The thought of a warm mug or travel cup in your hands literally gets you out of bed.

2. This mug describes your lifestyle so perfectly you could cry.

P.S. I really need this cup in my life. Can someone get it for me? Please. I'm serious.

3. You cannot, and will not ever, understand the point of decaf.

Can we just take a second, though? If you like the taste of coffee, why are you not enjoying the best part of it?

4. Half of your Instagram feed is composed of artsy coffee pictures.

5. And one of your biggest goals in life is being able to make cool latte art.


6. You dreamed of becoming a Starbucks barista in high school.

I mean, it just looked like the best job ever, right?!

7. Then, you applied to become a barista. And probably acted so overexcited you got rejected.

8. You try to understand tea people.

But you just don't get them. Where is that wonderful bitter flavor? Tea is basically just hot water!

9. You live for "coffee breaks" at work/school.

10. When you're halfway through a cup of espresso and just get really excited for life:

11. You've taken a shot of coffee creamer before.

The holiday ones are just too good to be true.

12. This video hits a little too close to home.

13. No matter how people try to make you cut back, they just don't get it.

You've probably used the excuse, "At least I'm not addicted to real drugs." And it probably worked.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
