It's a Love Hate Thing


So I've been in a spiral lately. I'll try something different and talk about some things I love. One for instance...coffee. Mmmm. Love Love Love. It's my guilty pleasure, well not really. LOL. I love coffee and can't get enough of it.
I started drinking coffee at the age of 11. Crazy right? My stepmother was drinking it in a hotel room. Our hotel had given us packs of coffee that comes along with the in-unit coffee maker. After that day, Mmm yum. It is my drug every morning. Have to have it.
My all time high was 8 or 9 cups a day. And I'm talking Starbucks 4 Venti sized Mochas, Lattes, or a mix of both. To top it off when I got home I made another 2 or 3. It was bad. But yet I still love it. I was working full time and then taking full time night classes in my defense. I barely had time to grab a meal so a Venti was the second best thing.
Today I'm averaging 2 coffee cups a day. 4 tops. And on really really bad days 5 or 6. But I shouldn't have any more of those days right? Haha. =)
My hate for the coffee...it stains my teeth! Badly! I use to have nice pearly whites and it has turned into a slight yellow tint. Awful. I brush with whitening toothpaste with a sonicare toothbrush. It helps some but still doesn't get it to where it use to be. On top of my tint it has also caused much damage to my face...yes my face. You Asians know it well...Yeet-Hay. It's a saying that your body overheats and due to the overheating you either breakout in pimples, get cold sores, or your body swells up and somehow you trip and fall (haha, yeah right). But if you did your grandmother will tell you that it was due to yeet-hay. Yeet-hay is the source of everything in their books. And it is inevitably your fault.
Love coffee but hate the tint and pimples. That is why I cut down and I have to drink a bottle of water for every cup of coffee I drink. Argh. It doesn't help also that coffee makes you go to the bathroom and now throw my bottles of water in there!
My other love and hate things are Ebay, enough said, and my clothes. Love clothes but darn I hate the maintenance of them. They turn up everywhere, the care directions on them, you always want more, they can go out of style in a flash, and yet you don't want to throw them away! But yes we do need clothes and I wouldn't go out without wearing them. It's just the volume as to how I attain them. =P
