Caffeine, one word, so many meanings. Coffee, soda, tea, energy drinks, one shots, chocolate...caffeine is everywhere. While this is a great blessing for most people, for a few of us out there it's terrible. Especially when it's suddenly just taken away. Welcome to my world when I was just past 18 and getting ready for freshman year of college. A little back story. We moved from Indiana to Kansas the summer before my senior year was to start. So, as if the life of a teenager isn't already "hard" enough, add in all new everything before what is supposed to be the best year of school ever. You guessed it, I hated everything and everyone at this point. Not even a month in and my appendix ruptures. I spent over a week, up to the Fourth of July, in the hospital. Summer really was awful by that point. First day of school, sent to principal’s office for wearing a spaghetti strap tank top and had to wear a very large ugly school mascot shirt over it.
