I Don’t Care What The Health Benefits Are, I’m Never Giving Up Coffee

Do not test me on this.

I’ve been a coffee drinker for years now and I’ve been told numerous times how I shouldn’t rely so much on caffeine, there is a lot of sugar in the coffee drinks I get from Starbucks, it’s bad for your teeth, etc.

I’ve heard it all and to be honest I really don’t care.

My morning cup of coffee is a sacred part of my morning routine. I have a deep love for cute coffee mugs and the smell of coffee. My favorite thing is when I brew my first cup of coffee and it makes my whole apartment smell amazing.

I also believe in treating myself to an overpriced, sugar filled latte from a coffee shop every once and a while. I mean, why not? Life is way too short not to enjoy a caramel macchiato if I want to, no matter the amount of calories.

Basically there are a lot worse things I could be addicted to than caffeine. If it takes a cup of coffee to get me going in the morning than so be it. You best believe that cup of coffee is helping me achieve my goals. A little caffeine is all it takes to give me the energy to take on the day and whatever it will throw at me.

Yes, I’m well aware of the health risks, but honestly I’m willing to take the risk. I’m not willing to give up buying cute coffee mugs. I’m not willing to give up buying myself one of Starbuck’s Christmas lattes in their cute holiday cups. Most importantly, I’m not willing to give up my favorite part of my morning routine.

So you can tell me that coffee is bad for me all you want, but I’m telling you now there is nothing you can say that will convince me that giving up my one true love is a good idea.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.

Top 10 Reasons My School Rocks!

Why I Chose a Small School Over a Big University.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
