The Confessions of a Coffee Addict

I donch know whether to love or loathe this heavenly black liquid. While it has soothed my nerves and comforted my battered soul preparing for exams during the good 'ol kental days of wearing the pleated green skirt and 3/4 sleeves uniform, It has now become my worst enemy.


I just couldn't stop drinking coffee!! My good friend introduced me to this amaaazzinng diet which involves total abstienance from caffience. Coz caffiene in coffee, tea and chocolates make you crave for sweet stuff. While it has magically curb my kalahkan-orang-mengandung cravings, it hasn't done much justice to my mood swings. The withdrawal consequences were aplenty. I was constantly moody, I felt lethargic, going to work in the morning is so difficult, attempting to start work is even more difficult with me putting a few assignments that required more brain activity on hold.


I just couldn't hang on anymore, so yesterday morning, I treated myself to a hot cup of aromatic Starbucks coffee. Oh, man. It was just pure orgasmic! I was perked up the whole day, my creative juices were flowing and I managed to settle some outstanding assignments. I was super productive. Problem is, I couldn't stop drinking! I had not one or two but three cups of coffee! Since I'm not the daughter of Datuk K, I opted for a 90 cents coffee at the apek's coffeeshop instead, for my last 2 cups.


Unfortunately, due to caffeine overdosed I went a bit hyper and crazy at night. I couldn't sleep a wink! I woke up this morning, looking and feeling like crap. All I wanted was more and more coffee! I knew this would happen and continue into a vicious cycle. Maybe the gahmen should start humiliating us coffee addicts too by creating designated areas for drinking coffee at all public eating places. They can paint red boxes, right next to the yellow boxes for smokers. Those who smokes AND drinks coffee can sit in between the 2 boxes.

Ohh, can someone pleaseee find me a support group for coffee addicts!
