Keep it up. I don't drink much at all anymore.

Being energetic in the morning is good. My new morning routine: coffee, two multivitamin pills and a banana, and I'm off to the races with Kobe-like focus. Try to slow me down and Dikembe Mutombo will magically appear to wave his finger at you...

I can't do mornings for some reason... no amount of coffee makes me energetic, no amount of sleep will let me wake up not groggy and cranky. The only times when I wake up energetic is when I get up and it's like noon, so I get to start the day with lunch.

It's truly a great feeling.

I'm a night owl by profession and I hate mornings more than anything else. My brain starts working full force first after midnight. I used to have a one hour long wake-up procedure and my brain literally wouldn't work right until after an hour. It's still that way, but, and this is a big fat@ss but, if I take my multivitamins right away with my coffee, I'm full speed within fifteen minutes.

I take something called "Life Essence". The brand is called "Pure". Whole Foods carries it. Good stuff. Two in the morning, then two more in the afternoon and evening. It makes a great difference in how sharp my head is. I guess they have living stuff in those pills somehow, I guess it's healthy cultures of bacteria or something... I can highly recommend it to those of you who are like I used to be

Yeah, mornings freaking suck. This may have to do with going to bed at 5, 6 am though.

There's something about the way morning light angles into the room that makes me believe I should still be sleeping.

Coffee never did much for me, but 7-8 hours of sleep and lots of water generally make me feel pretty decent.

I love how everything is so quiet after 2 AM.

[Erik Eleven]

^ Yeah, that's when I do my best work. At 2 AM I can relax, knowing that everyone else is sleeping and that I for sure won't miss anything. That's when I can let my mind drift and write peacefully.

My best time to work or study is after mid night too and I love burning the mid night oil before exams and deadlines. There's just that freshness knowing that you are working when everyone else is taking a rest, it just makes me more efficient.

[RJM]

Does this mean you heart Cirrhosis too?

[Erik Eleven]

I heart smirnoff.

Ever tried Ketel One? If you like Smirnoff, you'll love Ketel. It's Smirnoff times ten

[Sedition]

I'm not a huge fan of flavored liquor, but Effen Vodka Black Cherry makes some of the best mixed drinks I've ever had.

Aren't you 17?

Damn that sounds good, i need to try it.

[milesfides]

Is it just me or is Ketel really pushing its advertising? I've seen so many ads for it recently.

I've never been a huge fan of mixed drinks or hard alcohol.

I think this comes from my somewhat unfair and immature perception of guys holding beers as "solid guys" and those holding mixed drinks as "douche bags."

I know, I have a lot of growing up to do.

Beer is infinitely superior as an actual drink, like something you'd have with a meal. It's just not strong enough... either that or I don't have a big enough stomach to hold enough beer. I always end up getting full way before I can even develop a buzz.

I feel like beer is best with greasy fast food type meals, wine obviously with more nuanced food, Scotch whiskey on the rocks for just chillin and chatting.

Nah, when I was there ( for nearly a year ) I was 18 and there was no age limits. Not to mention, it is looked down upon to not drink. Atleast with the folks I knew... They like their booze and I like them for it.

[Slava]

No wonder Borat is in boarding school now.
