SMALL OBJECT, large subject

I know this is cliche and has already been done by others in this class but the topic i have to talk about is red bull. The reason i have choose to speak about red bull is because as the slogan for the energy drink says 'RED BULL GIVES YOU WINGS'. This is something i can really use at the moment because since the start of this class i have really fallen behind and am working vigorously to catch up. Those so call wings that they speak of i could really really use since i am not much of a writer and find this difficult. The energy drinks gives you a quick and very helpful boost but when it ends you crash but for the time you have the energy boost it is much needed. Since i have been in college this energy drink has helped to pull all nighters to make sure i can make the deadlines that crept up on me do to my own laziness.

When i was in high school i remember what my mom would always say when i asked if i could have a red bull. She always told me that i didn't need the wings, that they advertised in the commercials. I never needed it for the boost of energy but i realized that just because i was told it was bad for me and i wasn't allowed it made me want it more. The pure boost of sugar filled energy that rushed through me when i had consumed every last drop of the yummy sugar loaded slice of heaven. I was jumping of the walls and honestly even though it sounds ridiculous, but i felt like i was flying because i was moving around so and felt like i was more awake than ever. It was also pretty amazing since i took the drink before the football game that night so for the entire game i was on a sugar hi along with the rush of adrenaline so i was definitely on top of the world.

The only side affect was that after the game i crashed all the adrenaline and sugar gone and no longer boosting my energy i felt like i couldn't move. I didn't know if i had exerted myself to much in the game but then i realized i was always fine during the game and after but it was different today because i had taken the red bull prior to it. The crash from the energy drink definitely was not worth the hi that i received from it but i still take it because in some cases it is necessary (LIKE IN THE CASE OF TONIGHT AND WRITING THESE BLOGS). This experience is just mind and i have seen the drink have different affects on different people and you really have to experience it for yourself before making a decision on whether or not it is something for you.

Many people believe that these drinks are unhealthy for you because of all of the sugar and caffeine that is generally associated with them. We see red bull as a quick fix which will allow us to stay awake longer and allow us to get more done. Red bull is a very popular drink and has even begun to vary the type of drinks or shots they make. They have made shots that contain less caffeine and even drinks that are SUGAR FREE. Could that be true an energy drink with no sugar, can it work the same as the original. These are all valid questions but questions you must answer on your own and try the new products.
