COFFEE

I love drinking coffee. I love its bitter taste which is left in my mouth. Sometimes I drink it every day. Regular drinking forms my “habit”. Regular habit forms my “addiction”. Regular addiction forms the only image of coffee in my eyes, and the only name coming from my mouth whenever I enter a coffee shop with my friends. For me, coffee has a natural and obvious place in my life...
However, each morning passed with only coffee made me bored. I tried changing my drink. Lemon tea became my new “partner”. Its sour-sweet taste was quite different with coffee’s. My tongue gradually forgot those bitter drops. I realized that I didn’t love coffee as much as I had thought. My mouth could call another names out of “coffee”.
I really thought I could leave coffee...
[...]
Therefore, my tongue misses that bitter taste, my nose searches for the familiar smell, and my mouth bursts into “coffee” again... Each sense and each cell in my body seem to say that “I want coffee!”
...There are something which becomes addiction because of its familiar being.

I’m really bad at verb tenses -.-
This is the second time I wrote an entry in English. There was no correct/comment on my last entry (cry). I hope you guys please help me with this entry (cry again). By the way, would you mind looking at my last entry? ^.^ I want to upgrade my English level.
Thank you very much~JDQ^^v

Wow, this entry is beautiful both in your command of the English language and its structure. It is a very poetic piece and described perfectly when I used to drink coffee. I decided to quit because I was drinking too much a day, and it sure was rough. It felt like I had the flu with cold spells and body aches. Coffee really gets a hold of you!

Once again, your English level is practically perfect. I really enjoyed reading this entry and I might have to check out some of your others.

Take care and have a great day!

I'll have to note that mentally if I make it to Vietnam. Occasionally I like to have a cup of coffee because I feel like a superhero. Everything seems to move slower and I have ridiculous amounts of energy. The few days after that though are rough! Is there a certain coffee bean or roast you like to drink?

I like drinking coffee, too. ^ ^
I usually drink five or six cup of coffee everyday.
I heard too much drinking coffee is not good for my health.
But I can't stop it〜! ^ ^

I’m not a connoisseur of coffee, so I don’t know much about its kinds. In Vietnam, there are many small coffee shops along streets. I just come in and call “cà phê sữa đá” (iced coffee with milk) or “cà phê đá” (iced coffee). In case I make coffee by myself, it’s Trung Nguyen coffee, a popular brand name in my country. I prefer “cà phê phin” (filter coffee). That’s not a “kind” but an unique Vietnamese “method”. How can I describe? >.<
So you can visit this link to know more about filter coffee ^^

Looking coffee dripping drop by drop through the filter is interesting ^^
I like black coffee with less sugar/condensed milk. It’s very bitter but delicious.

Yay, there was a time I had to quit coffee because of my health. I don’t know why but at that time whenever I drank coffee, my heart beat faster, my stomach ached and I nearly lost my breath. That repeated many times. My friends said that I had been “coffee-sick” (“coffee-drunk”?). I had to drink coffee with more milk (but then I poured more water into it because I couldn’t stand its sweet taste). I’m happy that it was over and now I can drink coffee again. However, I’m afraid if that can repeat -.-
