Having My Coffee???

Not that long ago I invented my own feature on Sundays to show you guys which books I got this week. I called it "Having My Coffee" because I used to work on this post as I was drinking my beloved Sunday afternoon coffee and let my thoughts wander and most of the time came up with any random topic to ramble about. Those times? Over. Oh yes, they're over. And the ending is bittersweet. On the one hand it means me sleeping through every bus ride to school and back (back then I would use this time to devour book after book), taking a nap or two during every single one of my classes (although it's mostly Bio and Spanish-ugh!) and then getting some more sleep from 9 at night to 5 in the morning - no before bed reading, of course, because my eyelids simply close and refuse to open up again!
The reason for this abrupt development? You guessed it. I gave up on coffee.
Like...radically. No coffee, cappuccino, latte, soda-latte - whatever! Nothing! Okay, except from green and black tea, but seriously - that's not coffee!!!
I'm not going to lie - it has been hard. I have a tough week to look back on. BUT it was worth it! My stomach's growling does not wake the rest of my classmates until three hours after breakfast (seriously, coffee has done that to me!) and my skin looks and feels a lot healthier!
And now, a week after the change, I barely notice it anymore. I feel good, fresh and awake!
As I've literally slept through my week there's not much more I can tell you about it. Oh, other than: I'm so behind on replying/commenting/ TWITTER (I've been absent for like...decades!) but I'm trying to catch up again :)
Happy Sunday to all of you!

  2. I LOVE coffee but I try not to have it too often incase I become addicted to it like other people and have withdrawal symptoms. haha. I drink green tea every morning but I'd much rather drink coffee. Green tea has better benefits so I'll stick to that. Especially because I don't really want to go through what you did. Lol.

    Awesome haul! I really want to read Belles and Born Wicked :D HOpe you enjoy them all! Thanks for stopping by (:

    1. :D Good choice! The green tea, I mean. You do not want to spend a whole week of your life sleeping - it's not fun! I love Green Tea, though - and every other kind of tea!

  3. Good for you for giving up coffee! I personally don't like coffee but I know that it is always hard to give up an addiction.

    I have read Winter Girls and it is so good but sometimes hard to read because the book can so intense at times Can't wait to hear your thoughts on it. I also have read

    Awesome books for your birthday! I have also read The Kite Runner for my high school english class. It wasn't really my thing, but a lot of people seem to enjoy it.

    Hope you have a great week :)

    1. It was. Hard to give up on the addiction, I mean :P I expected Winter Girls to be a tough one but I really want to start reading it - I'm almost annoyed I've got to get to some other books first :)
