“Doc, help me. I’m addicted to Twitter!”
The doctor replies, “Sorry, I don’t follow you …"
Urban Dictionary defines addiction as when you do something more times than a frat boy says the word bro in one day. We all are addicts. Some fall victim to Twitter, Facebook, or Snapchat. Others have a guilty pleasure of shoes, food, or spending money. We all have that one strange addiction though. The problem may not be as bizarre as the ones people have on the television show My Strange Addictions, but their is still that overruling question of WHY CAN'T I STOP?
I am a true addict of Candy Crush. Most people have heard of the game or maybe even played it. I claim the name of The Ultimate Candy Crusher. Okay you caught me. My real name is Leah, and technically I have never been named such thing. I am an addict though. The true kind that wastes at least two hours everyday and often times more than that. I even play it in class. Of course there is always the risk of getting caught with my phone out, but Candy Crush is worth it. I stay up passed midnight every night often just trying to beat another level. Recently, I have had a problem of being sick. It is more than likely caused from lack of sleep, dehydration, eating gluten, or maybe even a mix of all of them. BUT, Candy Crush is worth it.
At this point you all think I need mental help, I understand your concerns and I am in the process of getting my life back. After I beat level 79, I promise I will work on playing less. I have been stuck on this unbeatable level since two weeks ago, and I have tried over 50 times to beat it. Mission Impossible will one day be possible. I keep trying and trying and I continue to fail. I have just come to the realization that the reason I wrote this blog about Candy Crush was in desperate hope that one of you could beat level 79 for me. I played three lives of Candy Crush before I got the motivation to write this blog, and I will more than likely play at least three or more before I go to bed.
