Feeling pumped
We’ve touched on the joy of being able to buy energy drinks without parental disapproval, and it seems as if I was right to describe it as a big deal. Here Pee-Wee Sherman (not his real name, I think) has overheard an excited college student planning his next grocery store haul.
Although I admire his enthusiasm, I’m a little worried about his heart. It’s pretty common to react to your first taste of freedom by going over the top, but I hope that he comes to his senses before he’s so wired that he can’t sit still in class. Also, energy drinks taste really bad, and he should probably start working on a more mature palate.
