Keep the coffee coming...it's exams time!

3.39am just as I feel like to write something...and today's 4th cup of coffee is still managing to keep me awake. The first thing I had learnt not to do when I was in the Audiology dept during my work experience, i think back in 2005, was not to rely on coffee to prevent Zzz. Thought that when I happened to meet a patient who could not help drinking at least 20 cups a day. Generally I only kinda try coffee to see if it works during my exam times or otherwise I am not a great fan of coffee. But I can't really stick with that thought anymore..it seems.

Today (well yesterday), the day I have consumed the highest number of cups of coffee a day and that was 4. But then most of the times of exams, I can't really say whether the caffeine's reaction or the naturally increasing adrenaline that keeps me awake till late ;)
But trust me, I can still go to sleep if I want to, no matter how many cups I drink.
Hope this record of 4 won't go up...and I am sure it won't. :)

PS: A quick reminder. ;)

huh! That's interesting.. it is said that we shouldn't drink much coffee. If you medico's start doing like this? what will normal people do? LOL
:P

***But trust me, I can still go to sleep if I want to, no matter how many cups I drink.

Yes, I trust you...you might know how sleep works?

ha! good... same here.. but not 4.. I have been drinking more than 4... Sometime I do not sleep for 2 days (I know this is not a big deal. But I could manage to be awake only for 2 days continuously)
Work well... and good luck

Thanks a lot for your comments everyone :)

New season

 I cannot believe I made it back in here for the second time this year.  My new baby is playing/about to cry sort of state in the background...
