Caffeine and Me

 I wonder how caffeine can help raising up mood and awareness in some people because obviously not in me. 

Evening shift usually boredom (even though I like it most). I tried to decrease wasting time in social media. So I opened up the draft of yesterday's minute meeting and planned to finish it today. Please congrats me as I yawned at the first page!

Effort to be productive should be done. I went to the pantry and look for a coffee. I think I need something to help me focus so I took a sachet of Nescafe and yes, a mug of it is done. not even at the third sip, I got stomachache. 

As I continue typing, I got palpitation as expected. I ignored it and went to settle down patient discharge medications and inpatient reconciliation drugs, then I got headache. So I drank a lot of mineral water to counter the caffeine effects and it brought me to toilet then.

Guess what, I got hungry pulak.

Scrolling Foodpanda but found nothing nice according to the throat-demand. I want something warm but non heavy carbo like rice/mee/noodles etc. A warm pau should be nice. So I scroll even more, yes they are pricy in FP haha. So I continue the minute meeting.

But wait, how can I lie my mind? I still want something to chew. So I scroll once again the FP and found nice pau and pastries, hey that's are my favourites! Accidently I ordered so much (more than one person's portion) and continue the minute meeting. 

Just sharing here, I've been a secretory since I was 14 during school, and even at the college and afterwards, I still holding the title everywhere. When my Unit Manager said yesterday during the meeting that "you good in documentation," (and asked me to prepare the minute meeting grrr) 

I put a little smile. Ya that's a little thing I can do besides my weaknesses. That's my unit manager, she likes to appreciate her staff and we should be aware when she's not in mood, she can be worse that a devil (she quoted from her husband, and we acknowledge that).

Perfect. 

Back to the pastries & pau, Alhamdulillah, they are very nice! Best one I thought. 

I bought some pastries from anywhere but these ones exactly fit my tastebuds. You can feel how crunchy it is when they are still warm. The salty-butter taste of the butter croissant always my favourite. The Belgian Chocolate filling won't disappoint you. The apple filling really a perfect sweet-sour combination. 

The Kari Ayam Pau as tasty as usual. 

Don't worry I didn't finish them all, I brought home some. I still obeying the calorie restriction ehek.

As my mood is back, I continue the minute meeting and it nearly end of the shift. So it's right the old people said, the time always jealous of your spirit. Continue typing later. 

And back to the caffeine, no point to wonder around how some people love coffee so much because every single body and preffered is different =)
