As another semester comes to end, college has proved itself to be more stressful than usual. With midterms, essays, projects and finals all coming up, life can be pretty stressful. I would be lying if I said that I hadn't started skipping a few of my morning classes, and yet still, I end up falling asleep in almost every one of my afternoon lectures.

I am a lucky girl though because I have found my one true love. My love gives me all the support and care that I need and is always there for me when I need it most. So what is this mystery man's name? His name is coffee.

You might be thinking, what exactly makes coffee so great? Well, let me tell ya.

1. It puts a smile on my face every morning

See that gorgeous Danny Zuko smile? That's me after I've had my morning coffee. I couldn't imagine a better start to my day than a piping hot cup of joe.

2. It tastes delicious in all makes

One of the things I love most about coffee is all the options for creativity! From café miels to iced mochas and java chip frappucinos, the variety of choices at coffee shops is practically endless. Not to mention that each and every one of these magical coffee-based potions is absolutely delicious. Maybe not healthy...but tasty for sure!

3. It is my biggest motivator

It helps you focus on anything you set your mind to. Whether it be your biology exam that's tomorrow that you just started cramming for, or planning your future goals, coffee is determined to help you make your dreams come true.

4. Honestly, I'm just not me without my coffee

Without coffee, I am a sad, lonely, grumpy mess that most people probably don't want to be around. Even I don't want to be around myself when I haven't had my coffee yet. A day without coffee is like a day spent with the world turned upside down.

5. It's the only way I maintain my sanity when it comes to mean girls (& also boys, professors, bouncers, and all humans really)

If it wasn't for my coffee, there are so many things that I would do or say and later regret. Thankfully, my morning cup is always there to keep me sane when evil thoughts pop into my head, such as throwing my pencil at the heads of the girls sitting in front of me in physics that won't stop chattering and smacking their gum.

6. There's no other arm candy that makes me look cooler

"Daaaaaaaamn girl! That's one hot - "

Steamin' cup of good lookin' coffee & cream, am I right??

I mean, honestly, do you even look like a real college kid without an XL to-go coffee in your hands as you sprint to class? I don't think so. Not a cool college kid at least, am I right?

7. It gives a buzz like no other

Feeling down? Or sleepy? Just can't keep your eyes open? Well, you know what fixes that? Coffee! Instantly, you'll feel your body fuel up with an electrifying kind of energy that suddenly makes your whole day better. Better than you thought it could ever get. And you want to know a little secret to the recipe? More espresso = more happiness.

(Just beware of caffeine overdoses!!)

8. Coffee has never failed me, therefore I am forever loyal (lord pray for my wallet)

You know why I really love coffee so much? Because it loves me for who I am and is always there for me. Coffee is never late, coffee never misses a date, and coffee never hurts my feelings. I have so much to thank coffee for, whether it be helping me pass my tests that stayed up late to study for, or making my heart just a little bit warmer every morning. Coffee is my one true love forever and I can say without shame that I am "hopelessly devoted to you", my sweet darling double-shot latte.
