Coffee overload

Originally uploaded by gilachess.

I rarely drink coffee. Today I took two cups of coffee from a Chinese coffee shop which was relatively ‘kaw’. Now my head is buzzing and my heart is racing. That’s the reason I don’t drink coffee. Caffeine seems to affect me in the most extreme way.

Tomorrow is the Engitex. I know I won’t be able to sleep soon tonight. Another GilaChess blunder. Probably should drink coffee in the morning before the tournament

This a normal reaction for non-habitual coffee drinkers. The side effects will last about 12 hours, I think. One of the side effects, even if you went sleep soon tonight, maybe you will wake up alert in 3 am in the morning

Unanswered: Is caffeine good or bad?

I didn’t sleep till 5am! Had to wake up at 7am to get ready and go for the Engitex tourney.

I think I have only drank coffee on 3 occasions the whole of 2006. Twice was with SM in Starbucks but that was iced latte.

No more coffee for me especially if the following morning is a chess tournament..

[...] I had about 2 hours sleep (coffee overload) before playing in the first tournament (for me) in the year - the Engitex tournament. It was an adventure as I had not been there before and I took bus 91 to IIUM (International Islamic University of Malaysia). [...]
