energy drinks

[Gerrard 17]

whats your favorite energy drink?

i rarely go to class which means about once a week i have about 50-100 pages to read the night before a test, and i have to load up on a bunch of **** to get me through the night.

which energy drinks have you found to really work?

Looking at the ingredients Monster should be the winner but im still debating if it really works... tonight I got some stuff called "Upshot" (http://www.upshotenergy.com/) its a tiny 75ml bottle for $2 and im about to see if its worth it.

i hate energy drinks and drinks that contain caffeine in general, i've barely had the need to use em. Then, is it really worth to try to stay awake the night before the test in order to study everything u didnt study when you were supposed to? I don't know if it's just me but I'd do my work when i'm supposed to (doesn't mean i do everything..but most of it) and then before the test review all my notes and stuff.

I've tried both approaches, and the stress i got from study in the last minute was really not worth it, now by doing a bit of work when im supposed to has allowed me to chill more and feel better when going out and everything.

sorry for all this unnecessary stuff i wrote, i just thought it might be helpful

it sucks but i can only work under pressure, whether it be writing a paper or studying for a test...

even if i try, ill have a blank word document / a book infront of me the whole day me but ill just keep ******* around and get very little work done until a few hours before something is due. that's when i'm the most productive and come up with the best ideas.

I've tried Red bull, really works for me to get me throught couple more hours at night

Red Bull is overpriced. In the US, for the price of one 250 ml can of Red Bull you can buy two 700 ml bottles of Mountain Dew that combined contain more than two times as much caffeine.

I'm not a big fan of energy drinks in general. Caffeinated pop does the job for me.

Don't worry about it man, as long as you still have that "oh ****" reflex at the last possible moment to finish something, you're all good.

Is 'Cheetah' Canadian for "taking more steriods than Barry Bonds in order to try and rob Carl Lewis of his rightful medal"?

I hear ya there. I would always leave even the most critical coursework essays to the night before, then stay up til 3AM banging them out. Even when I tried to start early, I would get a maximum of half a page done per night up until the final night when I would have to do the remaining 6+ pages. The problem is, I think school has totally destroyed my motivation to work because now when I want to do something, like work on my screenplays or write articles or whatever, I just cant motivate myself to do that either.

Anyway, I have never been one for energy drinks - Red Bull tastes like **** and I beleive it is illegal in France due to the caffiene levels, so probably best avoided, and most of the others are just knockoffs of Red Bull. Blue Bear, hmm, that's original. Lucazaid (sp??) is about the only one I'll drink but I find it only helps with physical exertion, not mental. Plus I am a pussy and only like the weaker orange variety.

Mountain Dew or Red Bull

[MaestroZidane]
