Choco Topp Curse

As college students, we are faced with countless of stressful situations that make us reach for guilt-ridden fast food and sugary confectionaries for temporary comfort. Unfortunately for me, it has been a gateway for an unfortunate junk food addiction.
I blame my incompetency to study at the dorm and not in the library. Many times I choose my cluttered desk with scrap papers and random souvenirs that scream out distraction, rather than the tranquil surroundings of the library (not to mention, air-con). Despite my discrepancies for productive study sessions, the Choco Topps curse is something to blame for it.
When I see my Choco Topps stash, a sense of urgency to open one is overwelming. A snack session of these deliciously evil mass-produced cupcakes never fails to induce me to
1) feel bad about it afterwards
2) jog and then eat some more to compensate for the loss of energy
3) resort to unproductive activities and wait for the sugar high to subside

The core of all evil. 

I truly regret the day when my lips first touched a Choco Topp cupcake. A roommate offered me one last week when I was looking for a sugar fix to satisfy my PMS woes. After the first bite, what can I say? I was instantly hooked.
Every bite of a Choco Topp cupcake is simply indescribable. When you sink your teeth into the orgasmic chocolately goodness, it fills you with the surge of phenylephylamine and numbs the part of brain to let you know that calories are slowly adding up in your waistline.
As exceptional as the sugar high, it is parallel to the level of wretchedness when it wears off. When you see empty cupcake packets and the scattered crumbs on your shirt, that's when it hits you hard in the ass (in a possibly literal level) .
You may think that it's a complete exaggeration but when you finish three packs (one pack = 10 cupcakes) in less than a week, you may think otherwise.
Even though I understand that binge eating is completely acceptable during hell month, this is just completely overwhelming. PMS this time isn't to blame, but a poor will to succumb into unhealthy comfort food cravings.
Here's why I think Choco Topps are just so damn addicting:
1) It's cheap - Less than 50 bucks for a pack. The quality and taste is definitely worth it :)
2) It's easy to find - From the sari-sari store to Rustans, you can find these calorie-filled confectionaries anywhere.
3) It's delicious, 'nuff said - With just the right moisture in the chocolate cake, texture of the chocolate frosting, and the vanilla surprise in the center oozes with sugar heaven.

Okay, even blogging about it makes me crave for one. I long for the day where I can look back at this significant period and laugh. In the meantime...
