An Ally and an Enemy

In this end of the semester battle, survival of the fittest, sink into the underworld, journey to heaven (since you have to suffer a lot to finally see the light), whatever it feels like to you...there is a strong need for a lot of things.

Time
Money
Food
Sleep 

but...most importantly we refuge our desperation and reinforce our strength with the magical need of: Caffeine.

Caffeine is our friend, our buddy...Gently patting us on the shoulder saying that we can do it, that we can push for those 4 extra hours...that our eyelids will not surrender and our brain will not shut down suddenly, or perhaps you see it as a coach yelling at you in your ear keeping that level of motivation above the empty line. Caffeine can be magical...a little fairy with a wand brought down by God that will sparkle and voilá! you are pumped. 

Caffeine can be monstrous...maybe it makes you so scared that it will kick in your fight or flight reflexes...or it can turn YOU into a MONSTER, half mutant half green.

Some call it wings.

Some call it a slap in the face...

But it can kill you...as half of the things on our planet now can too...

Want to see how much caffeine it would take to kill you in particular? Try out this tool calculator and be amazed.
