**************************

one of the greatest alcoholic inventions of all time is the coffee

liquor. Popularly known brand "Kahlua", has a quick bitter zing,

almost wickedly sweet. Made by exposing the spirits of vodka

to golden roast coffee, vanilla bean and sugar. having it

placed in a tightly-sealed bottle makes the spirit

seep in the beans to bring out a rich-tasting flavor.

It was nice to have encountered this extraordinary that has

has been tickling my tastebuds for years. it brought my obsession

for coffee and liquor in to a different life.Because of this, i was

able to link my love for alcohol to my other obsession.

I love coffee...(regardless of the brand).
If i have a few extra bucks, ill go to starbucks.
If im out of bucks, i stick to nescafe freeze.
I do not make a living statement out of drinking it.

I drink coffee because it gives me the spike that i need to keep me

up all night finishing the things that i have been doing everyday for

the last 2 years. not because i am putting up a "trendy lifestyle" by

doing a sip-a-minute of my caramel frap just to be able to spend the

wee hours of the day in starbucks.

I go to starbucks because i want to give myself a treat after a hard

day's work, or because i want a good conversation with my friends

over coffee. Not because i want my ears to be tickled as the barista

calls the "name" that i invented, wishing that was really my own name.

I order a caramel macchiato because i want to have a shot of

espresso and scalded milk on a cold night. Not because its something

new to my ears and i want to practice my twang just to end up

pronouncing macchiato as "mochiatow" or cappuccino as "cup of chino".

i get a few sheets of table napkin and bags of brown sugar because

when iwant to make my drink a bit sweeter and keep my lips

and hands dry and free from coffee stains. Not because I want to

have them "to go" and use them at home or to wipe my face when I’m

sweating like a dog...a price that others have to pay for trying hard to

fit in...

COFFEE...and the drink that started the trend....
the brand that introduced the wicked lifestyle...
hypocrisy...pretentions..delusions...
all just for a sip to that green straw that says.."I belong!"


hehehe..that’s too much dose of sarcasm for the day. ill reserve it for tomorrow.
