#whyilovecoffee

Most of writers love coffee. In my thesis research when I was 3rd year college, my topic is about poets, writing and aggression. While interviewing the respondents, all of them said that drinking coffee is another coping mechanism that they do, not just writing. Well, if I were the respondent, I would also say 'writing' is just one of my coping mechanisms. Yep, one of my coping mechanism is drinking coffee too. Why? Same as other's reasons (subjective reasons) "It tastes good", "it touches my soul", "it can calms me". For other scientific reasons, it can helps to digest easily, lowers risk of Alzheimer's disease, can cut the pain after working out, etc. For psychological reason, it can also reduce depression. That's true, when I'm sad, I will drink coffee then I'll be fine. Only one coffee a day for me, because drinking too much coffee won't calm me. Lol. It would kill me. I may feel something wrong then I will realize I'm just palpitating. Ok enough of saying about the benefits of coffee. Lol. There's a story behind why I can't help to spend my morning or a day without drinking coffee.

I usually sleep at night at 12 am, 1 am, 2 am or even 3-4 am. My earliest sleep is 11:30 pm. I just want to do a lot of things then after doing everything I want and I need to do, I will overly think first in my bed before to sleep. It sounds crazy but unfortunately, it becomes my routine. I may call myself unhealthy, but sometimes I would sleep when I got home from school. So it's ok.

There’s a night I slept at 12 pm. Just wow. As a night thinker like me, it's early so I'm a little bit proud. Then I woke up 5:45 am. I went to school without drinking coffee. Of course I frowned. There’s no more coffee at house and I didn’t get the chance to buy in a “sari-sari” store because I might arrive late at school. My first subject will start at 7 am (a critical time). I felt incomplete. I still felt sleepy even I took a bath. Despite of being sleepy and unconsciously think in other things, I still tried the best that I can to listen to the lecture of our professor.

1. In the 2nd subject, I bought some foods because there’s no time to eat lunch in the canteen and I think my mom didin’t cook for me. And I still felt sleepy, but thanks to our homosexual professor. He can really teach enthusiastically. He is seriously funny and can make all students listen to him. After the discussion, oh wow. There was a quiz. It’s my fault because my notes are incomplete. So I didn’t get my ideal score.

2. Then when class dismissed, I went home early because I want to take a bath again then sleep. When I was at home, I didn’t notice I have lunch in my bag. Urgh. Why did I buy foods at school? I’m saving money. Ok it just happened. Sorry mom I didn’t eat my lunch. Huhu I’m out of my mind. My mom was laughing. Lol. You forgot? You’re the one who put your lunch box in your bag.”

3. After taking a bath, my mom asked my mom asked why I went home early. She knows my schedule. “What the!! Omg!! Yep, I have to attend my Humanities subject at 1:30pm. Huhu. Thanks mom for reminding!! I actually forgot. So I hurried going back to school again. Lol. My bestfriend is waiting for me there. This is my 3rd stupid thing I did in this day.

4. After school, when I was already at home, I remember I have to go at LBC to pay the book I ordered in Ateneo de manila website. I used to buy things through website that’s why I always choose LBC padala. That crazy thing again, I forgot my ID when I was already at LBC. Urgh, ok so. I went home, and again went to LBC. Finally. Lol.
