This morning after I accidentally slept through my class, I decided that it was much quicker to absorb my daily caffeine fix by shoveling a handful of coffee beans into my mouth and chewing.
See…now this is the reason that I need to have my coffee—my brain doesn’t function properly without it. Coffee beans smell good and they taste good when covered in chocolate, but a handful of plain old beans are simply gritty and bitter. Disgusted and disgruntled, I quickly rinsed my mouth with water and swished.
I thought myself to be an innovative mastermind.
I had discovered a new way to brew instant coffee sans mug! When I went to spit out the grit, I spit out a coffee.
Brilliant! Magnificent! Genius!
Except now, after I finally ground the beans in my coffee grinder that I got for Christmas and had a real cup from a coffee pot, it seems like a terrible idea. Next time I’ll be sure to add a spoonful of sugar.
Just kidding.
What have I learned from this experience? I shall share:
Tip #1. Set your alarm for a.m. if you intend to wake up for your morning class
Tip #2. Make a friend in each of your classes and get their emails, just in case this happens
Tip #3. Ease up on the caffeine dependence
Now, I shall at least make it to my next class--which I have a midterm in. Wish me luck!
