Ever since school ended, I’ve been trying to avoid energy drinks in order to prevent my body from depending on the stuff too much just like it did two semesters ago. The problem is that I’m at my most productive and active when I’m juiced up with the stuff. Without it, I’d rather just play and sleep and let the day go idly by. But when I’m juiced up too much with the stuff, like when I was drinking the extra strength Five Hour Energy, then stop the next day, I get all paranoid and jittery.
Why I drink energy drinks instead of coffee? Coffee upsets my stomach, so I have no choice but to rely on energy drinks. At the very least I take those sugar-free ones, since I’m having a growing dislike for unhealthy sugary drinks that seems commonplace here in the US.
Speaking of drinks, I’ve been enjoying a few cups of tea every now and then. I never thought I could quench my thirst drinking something hot until recently, right after I got sick during the holiday season and was avoiding cold drinks.
