Interesting Coffee

I like coffee but not caffeine. Most of the time it makes me uncomfortable, my heart beats quite quickly after drinking coffee, and I cannot fall asleep if I have coffee in the evening. But it depends, if I feel really tired, I can still fall asleep quickly; And coffee seems to be my good friend during the exam weeks.

When I was at high school, if I (could=delete) remember correctly, the best seller(selling item) of the campus store was coffee in cans...why not regular coffee or instant coffee? Yes you get(guessed) it: for saving time, students have not(don't have) much leisure time to enjoy coffee in weekdays(during the week is better here, weekdays just means days of the week, unless it is used in direct comparison with weekend).

Coffee is very common in today's China, not in family(families or maybe "homes" is better here) but on the street, you can easily find coffee shops like Starbucks everywhere in cities. But the taste of coffee is not so good in most coffee shops in China, just like the strange food from Chinese restaurants in foreign countries.


How often do you drink coffee? You may find that if you stop drinking coffee for a couple of weeks, then start to drink again, coffee may work well in keeping you awake:) For me, that is true. So I don't drink coffee if I don't need to.

But sometimes it is interesting to have coffee with my friend(s), like Swedish "fika", that's truly a particular(particular is more like 特定的, do you mean special/unique/significant?) daily event in Sweden. Hi(Hey) Swedes, how do you get so much time:D?

Another interesting fact which I don't know why(the reason for) yet, is that I prefer tea rather than coffee when I am abroad but I like coffee more than tea when I am in China. hahaha!
