Bye Bye Love

It's been good
It's been fun
But it's now time to say adieu
Pack my bags and run

I don't think I can say goodbye forever
Maybe I'll indulge in a occasional sip or two
But I'm a regular coffee drinker no more
'Cos caffeine makes one's nerves go hullaboo

So, good bye Ipoh Old Town
Good bye Starbucks, Coffee Bean and Dome
Buh bye Nescafe & Aik Cheong
Farewell beloved Chek Hup

One day I may sip of you again
But it won't ever be the same
Farewell, adieu, goodbye.

*Mark faints, falls to the floor, very nearly knocking over his own steaming mug of Starbuck's coffee

*Yeah, it's a shocker. Like you guys, I still can't believe I actually did it. Am sleepier these days but less prone to get stressed. So it's all good :-)

*I hope this is the right thing to do. I just don't see us (Chek Hup and I) having a bright future together. We're better off as ... frens.

*Obi Mun, all hail the coffee relationship guru :-D Good advice, mate! But 5 cuppas a day?? Whoa...

Merv & Mark, too much caffeine is bad and a big mug of Chek Hup makes for a real strong and potent brew. It contributes to edginess and anxiety - which was why I realised I have to stop or drastically reduce my intake of it. Now I feel more sleepy but calmer.

Alicey, you are right - breaking up is hard to do. But since Chek Hup and I are still frens, I can still occassional sip of it as you said :-D

Jim, thanks for the booster shot! So happy to see you back here :-D You must be psychic - I am seriously considering expanding my photography skills. Hee!

*Whle you are parting ways with coffee, you should consider a new life as a food photograper!

All those picyures a delicious food in magazines makes the photographers tons of money. You are almost in their class!

*I tried kicking the habit last year but an onset of projects got me right back in it. All the best! Caffeine is nasty stuff

*Too much caffeine really is bad for you. My doc made me cut way back and I can tell the difference in my body and attitude.

Ok, technically she wants me to quit, but I only have coffee when I'm at work AND getting super tired. Maybe 2 or at most 3 cups a week. I went two weeks completely without before, and it was a good thing, I just have to remember to eat enough to keep my energy up when I need it.

Hang in there sister!

*dun make any rash decisions, mate. relationships are like this - sometimes, the road gets tough, sometimes, you drive each other up the wall. the bed of roses will always have thorns. but if you hold on together, things will work out!

take some time off if u want to - then re-evaluate.

take it from someone who has been in such a relationship for almost 2 decades - and still drinking coffee (altho i'm down from 8 to 5 cups a day now...).

;-P
