Perfect company
What’s the perfect company to a night of review for exams? Coffee! It will keep you awake for as long as you need to. I’ve experienced getting sleepy from being too tired studying. A cup of coffee would really jolt me when I drink one. Of course, there were days when even a jug of [...]
A strong cup
This person probably needs a strong cup of coffee to wake him up… When I was still commuting to work, there were a number of times I fell asleep sitting down. Good thing I didn’t miss the train or bus stops. It was out of tiredness, exhaustion. Going home from work really late at night, [...]
Intersection of life
I am at an intersection of my life right now. I have a lot of plans that I want to bring to fruition but with decreased resources, I don’t think I can see my plans come to life. I need another source. I don’t know if I should move forward or stay where I am. [...]
Stuck in my mind
Have you experienced feeling that your mind is filled with so many ideas but you can’t churn out one? I’m in that very same situation for the past two days now. I have so much to share and yet I can’t put it in words. It’s stuck in my mind! It’s not a good feeling [...]
Balance in life
I need to find my balance. I plunged myself to work four years ago. The real work that made me happy to get up in the morning and stay until the wee hours of the night. I actually enjoyed my work so much that I forgot to have a life outside of it. These past [...]
Almost like my baby
Sometimes, I feel this overwhelming need to hug my brother tightly. He grew up beside me. I took care of him when my mom was not well enough to do so. He grew up in my arms, humming him to sleep, feeding him baby foods, bathing him and making sure that everything’s fine with him. [...]
Not a risk taker
I got this from an old notebook I found when we did a general cleaning of our storage room… Remember that the deepest love and the greatest achievements are the ones bearing the most risk. The thing is I am not one to risk so much because I am really, really afraid to fail. I [...]
Holding on to a dream…
I held on to a dream for so long but it never materialized. I threw away the remaining reminder of that dream. It wasn’t for me. I’ve been looking at it from time to time, regularly actually when I started dreaming about it. But then it became seldom. Until I stopped. It has been three [...]
Being prepared
The winds the night the typhoon hit the metro was truly scary. I don’t know if you heard it but in our house, the wind was howling a little and banging on our doors and windows. Without electricity, a situation like this was doubly scary because you couldn’t see clearly what’s happening around. I am [...]
Impulsive!
Yes, that’s me! I am an impulsive person. Darn! I always end up regretting things I do on a whim. There are really days when I don’t think. I just act. And then when I pause after acting, that’s when I realize, I should have thought a dozen times before I acted in the first [...]
Hot cup of tea
After a heavy meal, or just when you are feeling a bit down and out, a hot cup of tea can do wonders. Trust me, I’ve been there one time too many. Hot tea with a splash of fresh milk. That’s what works best for me. It actually made me smile when my cousin who [...]
Sweet over coffee
I think today I need the sweet over the coffee. I need the energy boost from the sugar in the cake. The jolt of the coffee is also needed, of course. I just need the boost of the sugar to be able to come up with more ideas to write about. It will be a [...]
Blessings ♥
Blessings poured the other day. I was already worrying because I found myself short again on my budget. But I believe He heard my prayers loud and clear and He sent an emissary to give me the blessings I need. Two things I always worry about: health and finances. We are living very unhealthy lifestyles. [...]
Blindly in love
I worry about Shine. She is very much in love with her boyfriend I don’t think she listens to her instinct anymore. She had a suspicion that her boyfriend is having more than friendship with his best buddy Suze. She has no proof except her gut is screaming of the obvious. He travels with her [...]
Life and Death
I fear death. Not because of anything for myself but because I don’t think my family can make it without me. Not yet anyway. Most especially if I take into consideration my dad and my brother. They clash all the time. I can’t leave them alone at home and not worry about them clashing. My [...]
Coffee addict?!
I was introduced by a friend of mine to her boyfriend as a coffee addict. It didn’t sound too good to me. It sounded like I had no control over this craving I have for coffee. I must admit that I love coffee, but not to the point that I can’t live without it. There [...]
Outdoor cafe
I love outdoor cafe. I love chatting outside with the breeze on your face and the sound of activities around you. There’s a cafe a couple of blocks away that my friends and I used to hang out at. I was excited to go back there when I saw that it already closed down. Too [...]
Yummy treats
Lately, I noticed that I’ve been indulging myself in yummy treats. Mostly costly coffee concoctions. Even though I know I will suffer after a cup of coffee, hyper acidity and all, I still treat myself to a cup. I just love the taste of coffee. And it makes my blood sing. I am wide awake [...]
Hot and cold
As you very well know, I love coffee! That’s why I created this blog. It’s a tribute to the caffeine fix I need every single day. I didn’t fancy those designer coffee before but when I tasted my very first Frappuccino, I was hooked! I love my lattes. Hot. I normally order one after a [...]
A star for hard work
I should give myself a star for all the hard work I’ve put in the past three days despite the fact that I have been sick and not feeling all too fine. Sore throat, cough and colds. I’ve also been down with fever. But I still put in some amount of work and carried on [...]
