Hang Out and Post

I prefer to just drink plain water whenever possible. :yes: I don't know why, but I just don't find anything else that attractive these days (with a few occasional exceptions).

[Unstream]

You also have to consider the purpose of the drinks though too. Gatorade is geared towards providing quick energy to athletes.

 

Yeah, I usually drink just plain water too. But it's nice to have an alternative every now and then.

[Superfly]

 

Yes I did, but I'm trying to make my reply sound as clear as possible.

 

Okay, sweet! I just wanted to make sure. Thanks for taking the time to reply to me. :)

[CAV of Gang Green]

Plain water is the obvious drink you must have. And an Alternative is better from time to time. But some drinks are better than others.

 

Ok then Will, Flavored Water has MUCH less sugar than a bottle of Tropicana Orange Juice.

Ahh... I'm very, very far from being an athlete, so I wouldn't know. xD

True - freshly blended fruit juice isn't too bad every now and again. :yes:

My hair is super straight, so it's never effected by humidity. But I do have very easily effected by static hair, so when it's humid, my hair tends to be extra smooth.

LUCKY! My hair is straight as anything, but it still gets frizzy in humidity. <_<

 

HI TJ! Thanks for getting in touch with Ian and getting me back on the forums. ^_^

 

I've got a condition that makes me lose salt really easily, so I drink Gatorade like it's water when it's hot out. But other than that, I generally stick to water. And good ol' southern iced sweet tea. :imaginary yum smiley:

[Unstream]

I'm pretty sure Tropicana isn't a pure fruit juice. And you have to consider nutrition too ;)

 

Normally when I'm at work I drink Coke just so I can stay awake and keep my energy up. But outside of that I drink mostly water.

 

Haha I once sweated so much you could see the salt deposits on my shirt (might've helped that it was dark blue though :P)

[antiaircraft]

Hmm... I vaguely remember being forced to drink salt-water of some sort a couple of years back to deal with a low-salt incident. It didn't go down very well. xD

 

*checks weather report* It's a bit drier than usual over here, the humidity's hovering around 89%. :yes:

[livvy]

That's beautiful, Will. ;)

 

89% is drier than normal? :eh: Isn't any higher than that basically rain?

[Unstream]

Ugh, that humidity would kill me. I don't sweat from heat, but from humidity. And I hate sweat. Plus I hate how high humidity makes everything seem so...muggish.

[livvy]

Exactly. I can deal with heat (kinda), but humidity is terrible. x_x It's like drowning in air.

[CAV of Gang Green]

Bah! The point is I like Flavored Water. And it's better than choosing soda.

 

In order to stay awake in school, I need a bottle of either Gatorade, Vitamin Water, Sobe, or Powerade. And I also need to be able to drink it in class.

[Unstream]

Ha, drowning in air. Honestly, I don't think I could put it better.

 

Our school serves coffee for staying awake in school. I like my naps during math though :P

[CAV of Gang Green]

They serve us nothing. They overprice the chips in the vending machines. And to make it worse, they later made it that only people from the other schools can buy stuff.

Welcome to Malaysia, where swimming is a comfy version of walking. :P

[livvy]

Tsk tsk, Will. *raps knuckles with ruler*

 

Your school serves coffee? We have coffee, but it's reserved for the teachers. Students aren't allowed to have any.

[Unstream]

Yeah, it costs $1.50 per cup. They just added it last year. It's the freshly brewed kind too :yes:

 

And last year was nice. My teacher pretty much let me sleep as long as I got A's on her tests, which I did the whole year :P

You fortunate, fortunate child. :P

 

My teachers would never let me sleep in class. (Though I did have one who would let me sit on the floor when I was really frustrated.) But I couldn't sleep in class if I tried. I'd have to be really sick.

[antiaircraft]

My university has a lecture theatre with a wonderfully dim, quiet atmosphere and very comfortable seats. Combine that with classes at 8 in the morning and... well, you get the picture. xD

[Tyler.]

last year I fell asleep in English after my teacher just talked about something I didn't understand at all xD

[antiaircraft]

I'm usually pretty good at staying awake in class, but I do tend to nod off for a few minutes when I'm in the aforementioned lecture theatre, or studying AC circuitry. AC circuits are just too illogical for me to wrap my head around. xD

[ΩCCΩ]

We aren't allowed to sleep in our classes.

[antiaircraft]

Well in university, nobody really cares if you sleep in class (as long as you don't drool on them or whatever). If you fail, it's your problem (and you end up paying them for another semester xD ).

 

I therefore make heavy use of programming classes to catch up on sleep. :yes:

[jumpingbeans]

We're not allowed to sleep in my school!! How come some of you guys are allowed too?

Actually, I don't think I'd be able to sleep in class if I tried. :)

But still, it's not fair. :P

[-Ryan]

I had a really cool teacher in 6th grade that let you go to sleep in class if you had a migraine. :O
