My Traffic Life

I am Mae German. 34 years old. Born in Mangatarem, province of Pangasinan. I was taught and trained by Juan Dela Cruz, and I am currently being trained for more by Uncle Sam. Writing since the age of 12. Blogging since 2001. I keep a notebook and a pen in my bag, on my bedside table, and inside the bathroom. Misses a lot. Sometimes even my own voice. Loves to laugh. Sometimes even at myself. I am a work in progress. My ultimate dream is to be a SAHM. That is, if I am bound to have that chance in this lifetime... and I am.

My Traffic Rules

Don't take my words personally. At times, not even literally. This is my journal. You're my reader. My spectator. Applaud. Yawp. Yawn. Smile. Frown. Rave. Rant. Or not. Neither can I see you from where I am standing nor can I hear you.

This is not my life. Maybe just a part of it. But this is me meandering through life. My emotions fluctuate. My opinion varies. If it's too hot in here and you can't take it, leave. If it's dull and too cold, go somewhere else for warmth. I won't wipe the frown on your brow.

My stories, unless stated otherwise, are mostly fictional. Fiction could be based on reality. Still, they are fiction. Don't own it. Don't live in it. It is what it is. Leave it.

Watch out for the traffic light. Follow the rules. Cruise.

You want to get "high"? Take in caffeine.

I just woke up from an hour or two nap. It's late in the afternoon and I know I shouldn't be drinking any coffee this late, else, it will keep me up later tonight. But I need something to keep me "high."

Wikipedia describes caffeine as a psychoactive stimulant; psychoactive, being a chemical substance that crosses the blood–brain barrier and acts primarily upon the central nervous system where it affects brain function, resulting in changes in perception, mood, consciousness, cognition, and behavior. Mind the word "behavior." Each one has a different level of tolerance with caffeine (sometimes coffee's effect on me is I get sleepy and sluggish), sometimes apples do the trick on me. There's no caffeine in apples; but a medium-sized apple may contain 19grams of sugar (a healthy way to get sugar-high). So yes, I'd choose apple at this time of day. But if you ask me about some diet pills that work, I'd say anything which has high caffeine-content. Simply because they would keep you up and push you to move. *wink*
