Loud music and foamy latte
When I am angry or just plain pissed off about something, I listen to alternative songs. Loud music. Headphones on. Volume set to the loudest. Those songs full of angst in it? Those are the best ones! Believe me, after an hour, you will feel lighter somehow. And don’t forget to get yourself a mug [...]
You must listen to this!

Man of the moment
I am going gaga over this man I found at YouTube! I am so in love with his voice! I will feature his videos in my next couple of posts. I really think he deserves to be known. His voice is incredible, I tell you! He did a cover of a number of songs. But [...]
Worried
I talked to my aunt last night. We were talking about the state of the economy. A lot of the locals are losing their jobs. Big companies, those you wouldn’t think of closing, are actually doing just that. She is worried that their company might follow suit. Which I seriously doubt because if they do, [...]
Special place
My friend, L, was walking along this avenue when she spotted a quaint shop. She thought it was selling discount furniture just like some shops around that place. It turned out to be a coffee shop. When we talked last weekend, she told me all about it and how she frequents it now. She is [...]
This week…
I am currently reading three books, a magazine I just purchased and an inspirational mini-novel from a friend. Alternately. I am like this ever since. I cannot stay put with a single book, even if it’s really a riveting one. Shifting from one book to another keeps me on the edge. It keeps me wanting [...]
Patience pays off
The Cheap Blinds cast shadow over the mug of coffee… I love going over my emails over a cup of coffee. I slept really well this morning. From two in the morning until almost nine. While having coffee this morning, I saw some good news waiting for me in my inbox. Just when I thought [...]
Good colleagues
I met with a couple of old colleagues last week. They were telling me that this is the best time to buy up commercial real estate properties. With so many business closing, prices of real estate properties are down. A boss of one of my colleagues is buying up a commercial complex in his province. [...]
Chapters and Pages
I am missing in action for a few days because I am busy with something… a new blog! Aside from coffee and blogging, my other addiction is books. I love reading a lot! I can lose myself in a favorite novel for days and days if I want to. Whenever I don’t feel like doing [...]
Coffee with fresh milk
I am suffering from hyperacidity. Caffeinated drinks should be avoided but since I am a coffee drinker I can’t totally say goodbye to caffeine. What I do now is a compromise. When I feel the acid burning my throat, I drink chilled fresh milk right away. So now, I mix fresh milk with my coffee. [...]
Coffee Mugs
I have this great obsession with coffee mugs. I love coffee mugs! I have three from Starbucks, one from Seattle’s Best, and a dozen or so from different persons, some I bought by myself. One of these days, I will take a photo of all my mugs to show you. Or one by one? That [...]
O's Quote of the Day
We need change! Change, however, does not occur magically. It represents individual and collective pioneering efforts. You can still choose to be a pioneer? And I hope you will do so. — Stephen Breyer Happy weekend everyone!
Starbucks Gateway
I had coffee with friends at Starbucks Gateway, Cubao. I ordered a Vanilla Black Tea Latte. This is the first time I tasted this one and I loved it! Another thing that I love is the location of that particular Starbucks branch. We opted to sit outside because it was really cold that afternoon. I [...]
