"Caffeine"--Eric Clapton's New Hit

It’s such a gloomy day outside. I haven’t felt like doing anything.

I did, however, manage to get up this morning and stay up. Usually on Friday mornings I’m so tired from the rest of the week that I get up, drink coffee, watch Mythbusters and then go back to bed, too exhausted to do any sort of yoga.

But this morning, I actually got past the coffee and TV part. I did some yoga, did Bible Study and ate breakfast. THEN I went back to bed.

My mom woke me back up about 30 minutes later, complaining about me sleeping instead of doing my school. I’m not sure why she had a problem with that.

Sleep is very important. My motto (okay, one of my abundant mottos) is, “Sleep at every waking moment.”

Wait a minute.

Well, I’m sure I got the point across. I also have another motto. It is, “Drink caffeine as much as possible.”

For those of you that know me too well, that motto is the reason.

My dream day is when I would wake up, go to Starbucks, get a Vanilla Mocha Latte (iced if it’s warm outside and scorching hot it it’s cold) and go to a REALLY long yoga class. Then I would go BACK to Starbucks, get more coffee, go home, and do school (I don’t know about you, but I LIKE school, thank you very much). While doing school I am reminded not to over-use exclamation marks and to not write run-on sentences.

After school I would grab a couple Mountain Dews for lunch and then head over to swim practice. There we’d do 20 100’s, 10 IMs and 10 free alternating and then play water polo or something. Anyway, after that I would go to an all-night improv practice, all the while drinking a six-pack of Vault.

However, since I am SUPPOSED to be a healthy person, it is my place to say that you shouldn’t have 10 caffeinated drinks a day. And, unfortunately, “sugar crash” is not a valid reason, nor is “people will look at you in a weird way”.

Anyway, I really need to go drink something caffeinated. I’m becoming a zombie. Just in time for Halloween. Yay!
