I came across an interesting fact when I flipped through my Instrumental Analysis' (one of my subjects) textbook last year. And this is what it says.. Still working on my assignments and burning midnight oil every nite. So, I took the advise properly, and munching on chocolates and enjoyed myself with 1/2 can of Coca-Cola so that their caffeine content will be in good use =). Why not coffee, you may ask. Reason - My body has already immuned to it, so no effects.. equilibrium. LOL.
Chocolates have been the "SAVIOUR" of many a student on the long night before a major assignment was due. My favourite chocolate bar, jammed with 33% fat and 47% sugar, propels me over mountains in California's Sierra Nevada. In addition to its high energy content, chocolate packs an extra punch with stimulant caffeine and its biochemical precursor, theobromine.

Folks, help yourself with some chocolates and Coke when you need to burn midnight oil. Feel free to.. and delete the mindset of it being "fattening" before I give you a long lecture on where your chocolates will be and how much of it will be converted to fats okay. =) So far so good. Be blessed with this take home message!
Note for Amelia: Chocolates are NOT enemies, they could be your friend =)
Till then, signing OFF.
