Oh dear.. I think I’ve become addicted to cafein. For almost a year, I’ve been having at least three cups a day. And that’s in my regular work hours. But if I’m working overtime, it can go up to five or six cups a day. At first I didn’t really get the side effects, but lately, my head hurts so bad if I didn’t drink at least 2 cups of coffee. What’s more, when I got upset with something, my neck becomes so stiff and I get a very bad headache.
Epi said that it is a symptom of blood hypertension. I don’t know if it’s true but it certainly didn’t feel good. So starting this week, I’ve been trying to reduce my coffee consumption, from three cups to just one cup a day. I still remember the day I started to do this on Monday, I was so sleepy at work. Plus, I had to go to the campus. Seriously, it was painful. I barely can open my eyes to listen to the lecture. I think I went to the bathroom like 5-6 times in 3 hours, just to wash my face. 
Anywho.
A couple days ago, one of my closest friends suggested me to drink tea instead of coffee. She told me that tea also has this chemical substance, called “Tein” that can prevent you from being a sleepy head. Cafein is still stronger though, she added. But at least, I kind of believe that tea is still healthier than coffee. Oh, she also told me to read this article from Sunday edition of Kompas about a some kind of tea house, or you can just read it here. It’s a very interesting article. 
I know, perhaps the reason why I’m always rather sleepy at the office is just because I lack of sleep. Well, it’s just I don’t to waste my ‘life’ by being a “living robot” if you know what I mean. I don’t want to be like “you wake up in the morning, go to the office, go to the campus, sleep, wake up, go to the office, and so on.” I consider that as a waste of my precious living time. So rather than go to sleep earlier, I prefer to do my own things first. Something like this for example. Blogging. It relaxes me when I’m able to write down what I’ve been through this day or when I’m able to write down what’s inside my head. Not to mention about the extra benefit. My English skill gets sharpen with every single post I write. 
I have a plan that someday (perhaps when I’m 35++), I’ll open my own coffee shop. I just love coffee. I love the smell. I love the bitter taste of it. Though I’m not a coffee expert (yet). Oh, not to mention that it is indeed the perfect drink to accompany me when I smoke. Cafein plus Nicotine equals? 
Hahaha. Anyways, I think it doesn’t hurt to try to live healthier. Guess I’ll start from reducing my coffee consumption first.
Lastly, a bit of review of the day before I go to sleep.
Today I went to my office (not my client’s). I got a bit irritated this morning because a junior asked me whether I didn’t have anything to do this day. My reply? Simple.
“It’s a very big difference between one who just works so damn efficient (like me) and one who just can’t get anything done.”
A bitch slap straight on the face, I’d say.
(Don’t blame me. I just love being sarcastic to these kind of people.)
Next. My Boss made another update about Encryption Key which I have to apply to all of the applications. Then I got news that my client’s developer team haven’t did any updates I’ve given them from May 26. I got annoyed, because that means another delay for quality control team to check the updates. And for users, they wouldn’t give a damn whose fault is it. All they know that the IT team wasn’t able to work appropriately in terms of schedule.
Anyways, next. I went to the campus right on five o’clock. In case you’re wondering about my resignation post, which in one part I wrote that I have to go to the campus at 4 or 4.30, it’s just because the campus is not very far from my office. And today, I have a Managerial Accounting class and we learned about the Activity Based Costing system. After that, my study group wanted to discuss about our papers first. So we discussed about it until 11 p.m and then I went home.
That’s all for today. Sorry I still haven’t continue my post about my resignation or my proposal to Epi. I just don’t have the mood yet. So until the next post. Cheers.
