A necessary evil?

Coffee.

I always said I would never get into that life. I think that every time I have ventured out and done something different, people have told me that I would become a coffee drinker and that I wouldn't be able to survive without it. I held strong against the pressure and laughed in the face of fate and never became a coffee drinker. Because not only did coffee make me feel sick, it also tasted horrible. So why would I drop to that level? No, I was happy with my tea and my hot chocolate.

And then Aviation Maintenance happened. Now in our 9th week of school I have come to the decision that I will grow to enjoy coffee, love coffee, and will not be able to survive without coffee. I have come to the conclusion that in order to stay awake through four lectures within an eight hour period every day five days a week, coffee is a necessary evil.

Although I can't say that it will never happen (now that I have begun drinking coffee... I don't know what isn't possible) but I am not a coffee drinker, rather I simply drink coffee. Its a survival tactic that I have come to accept. And over the course of the next ten months in A&P school I expect to drink a lot of coffee and do a lot in the way of surviving. (as long as the coffee doesn't kill me first...)
