bodhi,

i am not sure about that bodhi...

smokers are addicted to nicotine it is well knows, they are not only addicted to sensation but their blood demand the molecule "nicotine"...

druggies as well, same to alcoholics...
when they take drug their body change and become depending of some molecule that drugs or alcohol provide...

I don't drink coffee, and I don't smoke.

I hardly drink soft drink.

it is an addiction, but not a strong one, it can easily be reversed.
However, it takes a bit of effort, cos the withdrawl symptoms that one might experience interfere with ur day to day choirs.
for me, i tried stopping before, but the thing is, i will end up with a headache and feelin sleepy the whole day. With work, u cannot afford that, so am waitin for the right moment to be able to cut down on coffee dramatically...
Maybe when i go on vacation

I know how it feels like when you first to stop coffee.
I was a huge addict:during the last finals i used to drink 7-9 cups of coffee per day.The problem with coffee is that it gives you immense energy but after a while it will tire you more which makes you an addict.
Anyways, now i'm caffeine free......till next finals.

I love the smell of the coffee beans while getting roasted and ground. I drink a cup a day... Usually in the morning, and I am not a starbucks fan at all... even the starbucks lingo leaves me confused... Tall is supposed to mean small
...
"A tall decaf, half half, caramalized frappucino please, no whipped cream, with an extra shot of espresso."

Like.... Ummm... Huh?
Eh, I'd rather stick to my mug of Nescafe, made with Nido Milk or Nestle... And I would not mind, if given the chance, to drink once more, a cup of Turkish coffee with my Grandma, on her patio at five O'clock on a fine summer morning, in the mountains of Lebanon... while listening to the birds, the roosters, and the donkeys salute the sun terribly miss that...

My Grandma died 5 years ago

Bas I am sure LebGirl that my Dad and Mom would love to see you again and have you spend the night over to wake up in the morning and have our morning coffee all together

And if Orangina comes too, it'll be a girls' slumber party in that Pink Room

( No Kamikaze, you are not invited )
