Hey everyone! I’m back again! I would be posting some new stuff about Baldur’s Gate 3 or critiquing about Missing again, but sadly, talking about those things can’t be done today (I’m in Act 3 for BG3 and I’m too scared to complete the game, and I can’t find my book copy of Missing to remind myself what the plot of the book is haha).

I will say that I have, in an attempt to stall myself from completing a Baldur’s Gate 3 playthrough, recreated the game in Miitopia, attempting a “Shadowheart Origin Run”, but that’s another story for next week (hopefully).

What I do want to talk about today is how I kinda screwed up. For a while.

You see, I play golf. And every time I go to a golf tournament, I always fill up my water bottle, pack a few snacks, and get out of the house for the tournament.

But for some reason afterwards, I had a hard time sleeping. Even after simple practices where I would repeat the same procedure before we left. And I had no idea why!

Until Thursday.

When I fill my water bottle for practice, I put a flavor packet from a company called Liquid IV. Why? I always saw my dad do it and I liked the practice so much that I decided to adopt it.

And then I found out something: the Liquid IV has caffeine! You can thank my mom for that (as I was putting the powder in, she literally said “You know that has caffeine, right?” And then I checked the ingredients list the packet had and was like “oh shoot she’s right—).

So I’ve stopped using them and (hopefully) I can get more sleep in my schedule!

Moral of the story: always read the fine print before doing something. It can really help you.

Seeya guys next week!
