caffeine high
--
i have always scoffed at caffeine junkies who would wither and die without their daily dose of Starbucks. why pay $5 ( 5 x 30 = $150/a month. 150 x 12 = ALOT OF MOOLAH. yes i am too lazy to calculate :p ) for a cup of something that you get from 20cents-a-satchet coffee?
well, now i eat my words.
ever since i started working at my current (or soon to be ex) magazine, i started lusting for iced hazelnut latte with extra whipped cream on an expensive basis, no thanks to my colleagues (trust me us writers are a harassed lot whose inspiration comes mainly from caffeine, especially in the mornings), who slurp up Starbucks by the barrel.
has anyone realised how AWESOME the whipped cream at Starbucks are? they don't come from a can, but freshly whipped from a jug for your enjoyment. being a 100% whipped cream fan, i give that two thumbs up!!
i love whipped cream so much that i have stocked up on whipping cream in my fridge and bought a whisk so that i can whip up a batch of stiff uber-delicious peaks of snowy goodness whenever the craving strikes. i eat them with everything- with bread, with fruits and cereal. but most of all, i like eating it on its own.
it scares me a little to think about where all the fats, carbo and protein i have been piling on go to. i have normal bowel movements, and i certainly don't have any worms inside my tummy. what if my body compresses them into some small little dense lump and one day,it will suddenly inflate and overnight i will become a human ball confined to my bed.
hahaha. ludicrous.
