Welcome to Gaia! ::

When was it you first had coffee?
When was it you became such an addict?
When exactly was it you realized that the raging rampage of needing caffene could not be controlled, and that you are now out of your mind for the bean-brew?
____________________________________________________________

For me, it was January, 2003.

I was at Western Pizza, and my two friends and my boyfriend sat me down for 'coffee'
Until this point I hated coffee, it tasted like grossness to me and I always had sprite or cola, until now.
They forced me to drink cup after cup of the brown liquid, the taste warped by sugar and cream....
For three or more hours I drank, and peed, and drank and peed more.
And look at me now...coffee addict.
Twacked out of my head.
The longest Ive been for coffee was about 7 hours in Smitties... they cut off our caffeen and made us go home.

Maybe I should just hook an IV of it into my arm.
Sweet sweet caffene, hook it to my veins.

Lets see... -reminises in the memories as she sits back at the counter and takes a rather large swig- Well I was a wee lil tyke and I always saw my parents with their coffee. So one day I asked my mom for a sip and found that I liked the taste. Soon after I asked for my own cup and later learned to make my own. From then on I have been hopelessly addicted with the craving for it intensifying with age. Whahaha! The only drawback....I'm short. The caffine probably stunted my growth but I don't care!! I'd do it again if I could go back! What can I say? I heart my coffee.

I recall my first true cup. I had just goten my very first ever paycheck (bout 3 years ago...) and the very first thing I bought with it was a frappuchino. Since then, whenever I can scrape together the change...

NOt addicted in a real sense, but if I get the chance I drink LATTES!!!!!!!!!! The first time I tried coffee was actually only about a year or so ago and I drank a dunkin donuts iced caramel latte. I met my life mate that day, and I have acquired the taste for only latte's I drink nothing else!!! Espresso is my Lurve! domokun heart

When was it you first had coffee?
When I was five....ish

When was it you became such an addict?
The begining of high school, when I needed it most.

When exactly was it you realized that the raging rampage of needing caffene could not be controlled, and that you are now out of your mind for the bean-brew?
Last summer. I would have ripped my parents heads off by now if they didn't start making a few more cups in the mornings, due to having a new needy consumer in the family.

Aki's tea could just about be a friggen substitute. That stuff is jam-packed with sugar! -spasms from the memory- Aiya, I was on a sugar high after one glass. -twitches-

I'm not so much as an addict. I enjoy a good cup every now and then. but my first cup of coffee I turned hyper! o.o

Let's see... since when I was just a lil'child my mom used to let me have some coffee with milk by the morning. She used to not let me have pure black coffee, but I always managed to have some, usually when she wasn't at home (my father usually would give me if I asked him to, probably one of the few good things that jerk did for me in his whole damned life); and since then, let's say there's too much blood on the coffe tat runs into my veins.
My day of coffee usually consists in:

6:00 am -> I wake up. Better saying, I am awakened... and I have my coffee. Through my huge breakfast (the most important meal of the day, tey say), I usually have 1 mug of coffee with milk and 2 of pure black coffee. At 7:00 or so, I arrive at the university.

9:00 am -> I MUST have either a capuccino or two black coffees, otherwise, I'll be useless for the rest of my day.

11:00 am -> Between the second and the third classes, another coffee, and I even take it to the class with me.

12:30 -> I have more classes after noon 2 days a week. At those days, I eat near the university, and of course, I have more coffee.
At all the other days, I would have my coffee either way, but at home instead.

2:00 pm to ??:pm -> I drink mugs and mugs of coffee through the day. I always get to sleep around 12 am or, so I usually have about 2 pots untill the time I get to sleep.

At weekends, I usually don't sleep more than 6 hours. I'm not mentioning 6 hours per day, I mean 6 hours at all. So, I usually have double that much of coffee at weekends, but actually, it depends. Usually I have more coffe if I'm at home, specially if I'm writing stuff or studing.
