I think it was the regularity of me drinking it. 1 large, hot lipton black tea in the morning, maybe an iced black tea before lunch, one at lunch, maybe 1 after, 1 at dinner, and maybe 1 more after. I was using unsweetened tea to ween off Gatorade which helped me ween off soda at the time.
Yeah, it's bad. I was at a wedding once, and feeling under the weather. Headache and flu symptoms. My friend brought me a hot tea to help my throat, and as I drank it, I started to immediately feel better. Then I realized I hadn't had my morning tea, or my lunch iced tea, or my dinner iced tea... that's how I found out I was chemically addicted to caffeine, lol.
Oh no, it was fascinating! I loved it! I love computer science. But that professor's voice, in that room, at that time of day... it was like a sleeping pill.
Computer Science for me, which was my major. But the class was just a little too warm, had natural light drifting through stained glass, was in an echoey auditorium and at 3pm, when the sleepies hit. God help me I tried everything to stay awake except caffeine, because I was a stupid child.
Yeahhhh, shits bad right now. I'm hoping things turn around...
