As a college student, coffee is what helps me get through the day. I need that boost of energy in the morning if I want to stay on track for the day. Coffee literally saves my life when I need to work long hours on papers, labs, math work and just about anything school related. Not only do I drink coffee to help me stay awake and alert, I also drink it because it's delicious. Whether it's a plain iced coffee or a perfectly steamed cappuccino, coffee is truly amazing. So here's how you know if you're addicted to coffee!
You need a cup every morning
Every morning you either wake up and make a pot of coffee, or you go out and get it somewhere. Whatever the choice may be you need your morning caffeine to get through the day. Without that cup in the morning you know that the day is going to be rough. Coffee is an essential in the morning, so if I don't get it, don't expect me to be nice.
You drink at least 2-3 cups a day
On a normal day you'll get your one cup in the morning and then you'll have that 2 o'clock craving and then that 5 o'clock craving and then you realize you really need to cut yourself off. This is a normal routine for you, you can't stop yourself from buying another venti iced coffee from Starbucks.
Being a Gold Member at Starbucks:
When you downloaded that Starbucks app your life changed. You kept loading money onto your account so you could get all those cute stars. Well now that you're an official Gold Member the stars don't matter, you just want your damn coffee. Although, being a Gold Member is great, free refills (only iced coffees and teas), a free drink on your birthday and a free drink every 12 purchases! It can't get any better than that. Having that apps proves you're a true coffee addict.
You have a ton of mugs in your house
You love buying new coffee mugs from Marshalls or HomeGoods, but deep down you know there isn't enough room in your house for another coffee mug. Buying cute new coffee mugs is a true addiction of itself, they're so pretty and decorative! Sometime you need to hold back from buying all these fantastic mugs because pretty soon you'll officially not have any room in the cabinet.
You can't live without it
Coffee has always been there for you, supporting you through your day, helping you stay awake and honestly being the highlight of your day. Coffee is a wonderful thing and you honestly can't live without. You've become a true addict. I much rather take coffee grounds, k-cups and gift cards to Starbucks or Dunkin then clothes. That's when you know. That's when you know you're addiction is real.
If you're anything like me and you love your coffee then I hope you liked this article! Coffee is my everything. Thanks for always being there and helping me get through life.
