Confess to the Attraction of a Former Bad Habit
Remember when every other word out of your mouth seemed to be "yolo" or "cool" or "true dat," and you couldn't seem to stop? Remember when you would feel the uncontrollable urge to binge on Flamin' Hot Cheetos™ or "Real Housewives of New Jersey," or go shopping for things you didn't need, or spend countless hours collecting cards for "Magic: The Gathering"?
Write about your winning struggle against a minor vice that you decided you could do without. What was its appeal? How did you kick the habit?
