This is like me when I have two cups of coffee a day. In the city it is okay, but if I go somewhere without coffee, I will feel very 不安. Maybe four or five cups. I can drink coffee instead of water. I drink latte. I think Americano is a little bitter. I think she must eat 10 bars one day, I think it’s too much. She finished the whole box in two days. I also like chocolate but I like black chocolate. If I saw it at supermarket, I will buy some.

Her family must 没收 her chocolates. They should take her money so that she can’t buy chocolates.
