"more caffeine!!!" (Envelope #18)

Ingredients:

do you hear it? the sound of ice cubes clattering in your glass? or perhaps you can see the milk clouds collapsing in your coffee.

these days i find myself thinking "just one more cup of caffeine..." too often. for some of us, we've always liked coffee. for others, we might've only started drinking this confidence-potion when we felt like our productivity was under pressure or at its peak. highly caffeinated drinks can be kind to us on days where we feel slower than we'd like to be, but they can also be temperamental and moody. depending on where you get your cup of joe, the effects may differ... anxiety, mood swings, overthinking et al. tend to shadow us with this drink. so why do we always return to it? why drink it?

this envelope will explore our relationships with caffeine; why we start drink ...
