Coffee
Of all the years I have been in school and at work, I have never had to use coffee or any kind of stimuli to keep me awake, no matter how little I’d slept the night before. Part of the reason was probably I found out rather early in my life that coffee doesn’t really work for me… Or, rather, caffeine doesn’t work for me (Mt. Dew, Coke, tea… etc).
But this week I have had to wake up pretty early everyday for classes. And this middle-aged body isn’t quite as strong as it used to be… So I tried some free coffee at the UC campus to see if it’d do me any good to keep me awake during long Perl lectures… What I found was that… coffee makes my body feel agitated… It just felt weird. I tried it for 3 days and found no good reason to continue.
That was a stupid experiment.
Or maybe that was some cheap coffee that didn’t do sh*t.

Dude, you can’t make a snap coffee judgement based on FREE CAFETERIA coffee.
You were drinking sludge that they “claim” is coffee, but is really injected with both caffiene and flavor in a weak attempt to cut back on costs.
Don’t sign off on coffee just yet - just cafeteria food, man.

word - coffee/caffeine is one of my favorite drugs.. don’t give up on it just yet, try a rich cup of starbucks or seattle’s best french roast and then decide. But beware - once you use it regularly, it won’t let you out so easily - usually a couple of days of withdraw headaches b4 you are free from it..

Nah… I WOULD like to drink it for fun, not to get addicted to it.
Stupid UC free coffee.
