Seven “Bad” Habits I’m Not Going to Kick

We all have habits. Sometimes people hail them as being good — like rescuing orphans or helping old ladies across the street — while others…well, they’re less good. I feel like people (parents, grandparents, best friends, etc.) are always telling me “that’s a bad habit, you should stop!” And while I’ve had some un-stellar habits (like nail biting) that were admittedly probably not very good for me, I still have quite a few that I don’t believe I need to kick.

These are the “bad” habits that, according to some people, I should kick…but, please. I’m keepin’ ‘em.

Do you have any “bad” habits you refuse to give up?

      When I was in high school, my mom used to try bribing me to take my makeup off before bed by offering to buy me expensive makeup! Still haven't broken that habit.

      4 cups of tea… try at least 8, my dentist doesn't nag (except flossing more) , he is also the greates dentist ever (He treats my parents like family, so I get sometimes free checks and x-rays, he says caus I am a student, but he always asks about my parents boat)

      Just saying, doesn't that get your pillow all dirty and colorful? Or has most of it worn off by the time you go to bed? That's what made me keep up with taking it off before bed, I like my pillow covers the color they are lol.

      I also refuse to give up the snooze button and tea. I also refuse to give up brushing my teeth too many times a day – my dentist told me I was wearing the enamel off my teeth because I brush them too much. I don't even care. It's so cathartic.
