Coffee…they lift you up in the morning. Aromatic, rich in flavour, and the list goes on. Coffee makes you a nicer person so you won’t glare at that person who schedules a meeting on Friday at 9am. And once you start your every day with a mandatory cup, it’s only a matter of time till you experience the most severe and intense headache of your life when you decide to ‘maybe skip coffee’ on one morning.
If that sounds like you, you’re in a dead serious relationship with coffee. How serious? Read on to find out.
1. The reason why you wake up in the morning – your first cuppa
The reason why you go to bed – so you can wake up to a cup of freshly brewed coffee the next morning.
2. This is you before and after coffee
From grumpy to friendly. Coffee sure helps escalate things quickly…in a good way.
3. One cup is never enough… never!
They say two is better than one and if I can have three, why not?
4. You can rule the world…but first, coffee.
Meeting at 10am, lunch with clients, conference call at 3pm, task deadline at 5pm…sure, bring it on (with lots of coffee)!
5. You know the origins of your beans and if they are fairly traded or not
Ethiopia, Kenya, Columbia, Brazil, Peru, Costa Rica, Mexico, Panama… your Geography knowledge has improved. Thanks to coffee.
6. You know the difference between light, medium, and dark roast
Contrary to popular belief, light roast actually contains the highest amount of caffeine.
7. Your coffee mug game is STRONG
Because coffee mug is a statement. ’nuff said.
8. You turn into a professional photographer when it comes to latte art
Whether it’s a pour style tulip, rosetta or angel wings, you have a photo collection of them.
9. Watching your barista pour steamed milk feels so satisfying that you can watch it all day everyday
YAS YAS YAS! Just look at how the crema and the microfoam come together…it’s 100% Chemistry.
10. You get offended by bad coffee
Yet bad coffee is better than no coffee at all. You’ll still drink it anyway.
11. You count on coffee when you have a deadline to meet
Need to finish your assignment tonight? Drink coffee. Need to stay up late to study? Drink coffee.
12. You follow coffee dad on Twitter
Papa don’t preach, I’m definitely not in trouble (for drinking too much coffee).
13. You hoard coffee mugs but use the same old cup all the time
I’ll have my Dolce Gusto with this, brew coffee with that, instant coffee with this cute one… Maybe I’ll just stick to this free mug I got from buying toothpaste.
14. You make coffee cubes
One section for white coffee, one section for black coffee, and another one for mocha.
15. You have your very own ‘Coffeelogy’ that you live by
Espresso yourself, better latte than never, stay grounded, take life one sip at a time…and the list goes on.
16. Iced coffee (and cold brew) is always a good idea
Considering how how the weather is lately, iced coffee is the next lemonade.
17. You tried to quit coffee and it was more the most intense 24 hours of your life…even more intense than Jack Bauer in that 24 TV Series
Nope, definitely not going back to the ‘caffeine free’ days.
18. Coffee shaming? Yeah whatever. You don’t give a damn when people say you drink wayyyy too much coffee.
Why do people get so worked up about the amount of coffee you consume? Go and care for other causes like poverty or fair trade or something else.
Do you know someone who’s a coffee addict? Or are you a coffee addict? How many of these do you relate to?
