At Least my Breath is Always Fresh

You know, I've really gotten into mints.

Like, a lot.

I've gone through so many different types of mints in the last week.

Mentos.

Icebreakers.

Icebreakers Liquid Ice Capsules.

Lifesavers.

And yet, I can't get enough! I go though, like, a pack every couple days! Sometimes, I'll even go into pack-a-day mode!

But it feels so good!

The intense tingling/burning sensation when you pop it in your mouth. The little crunch when you bite a mostly-dissolved piece. The absolutely exhilarating chill when you breathe in after finishing.

I've heard it said that everyone gets addicted to something new each year in college.

A year ago, I was addicted to Nerds.

I think this may be the year of mint!

No mint collection is complete without Altoids!

I really haven't had a major college addiction, but maybe this will be the year!

I haven't had any college addictions thus far I'm thinkin', but who knows what shenannigans I'll get up to in the future.

So long as it isn't something that could kill me, I'll be fine.
