My just starting Coffee life

Coffee, some say they're unhealthy, and some says they're good for you.

This magical drink, while consumed widely in the whole world, has a world jsut for themselves.

I first started drinking coffee as in left secondary school, as its my best way too kick start everyday.
Back then, I drink instant coffee, this is the soluble coffee which is not to be mistaken for coffee premix. I added in creamer and sugar then.
Hey, if it melts, its not fresh coffee. If it doesn't need to be filtered, it ain't fresh coffee neither yo.

Anyway, the enlightenment came to me when I was working as a Service Crew...waiter lah, cuci pinggan and sapu lantai sort.
Responsible for making those drinks, I finally found out what's Espresso, Cappuccino, Latte, and Mocha, etc etc. Man that was fun.

It was then that my wonderful manager and the bunch of us would talk about coffee during coffee.
I saw him drink a few cuppa Fresh brew coffee without adding anything in it, just plain 'ol coffee.

So this one time I asked him, why does he does it and what's the point of drinking such a bitter stuff.
The response I get is "We you can drink Fresh Brew Coffee like me, that's when you will really appreciate them."

Right, sounds like a load of crap and high tech mumbo-jumbo to me.
Still, I'm curious...I've been drinking for years daily and what he saying is that I don't really appreciate coffee?

This opened up a whole wide crazy world to me.
I started ordering my lunch coffee without sugar, but still with Cream.
Manager says, you ain't there yet. LOL.

On another fine day after so weeks, we were permitted to have the company's coffee during our shifts for refreshment. So again I started with Milk Coffee w/o Sugar.
Until one day I suddenly tasted Black Coffee, it was not that bad, and I told my manager it taste just like beer.

Yup, the beer that I drinks every now and then is just like Black coffee.
And ever since then I've been drinking Coffee Black w/o sugar. Joking that its just like Beer.

That habit didn't stop when I return from overseas some time later.
I drink instant coffee without adding anything and eventually.
I bought socks and buy grounded coffee for my morning coffee^_^
Ends.

Early bird fortnight

The title, LOL.

Parents went on vacation.
Assistance needed in the A.M.s for two weeks.
This ended up making me living a vampire like life lately.
What's worst is being the heavy sleeper i am i end up sleeping through the whole morning instead of just half of it.
Either way, just a few days left to go, I'll get to go back to my more normal sleeping routine next week.
That is if you call going to bed after midnight normal.
