No im just sating the authors quote on quote purpose that we always talk about in essays like how do we know its not made up, Shakespeare died over 200 yrs ago and we still analyse his stuff today. Like for example in RIII the play we can discuss the power of words and manipulation, did Shakespeare really intend to do that? or was he just trying to make money?. This is what im sure most students of english are quite annoyed with, it gets really bs at sometimes and like come on the questions are sometimes ridiculous. Giving as a literal scrn shot of a scene from a movie or film and telling us to write a 20 marker essay on how that reflects textual conversation, surely there is a better way we can asses and learn the english subject.
You can never capture what an author truly intended, ever. its just what YOU think about the text

I need an obscene amount of coffee in my life. for some reason it doesn't keep me up lol.
caffeine is a drug, and with consistent use of any drug, your body will build up a tolerance to it.
I don’t drink coffee, but I bought a red bull the morning of my history exam since I slept poorly, and I was unable to sleep that night.
My father however, has 2-3 shots of coffee every morning, for the last 20-30 years. At this point he’s just drinking it for the taste.

I like red bull because it tastes like apple and blackcurrant juice which is one of my favourite juices.

also caffeine basically works by not giving you energy but masking adenosine (a chemical that makes you sleepy). Caffeine is also a stimulant so if you have adhd it can produce a calming effect, making you sleepy. but there seems to be a lack of research about this.
