Have a Cuppa Everyday
I slept at around 3.30am this morning. Thank goodness my internal alarm clock did not go off at 7am to remind me to go for my jog. I got up only around 10.30am…yeah…had seven hours of sleep finally…really needed that, otherwise I will be a zombie again today.
I first thing that came to my mind this morning was…I need my caffeine! So I cycled out for my breakfast and had a cup of local or should I say Indonesian coffee. Ahhh…the aroma…I needed that.
While enjoying my coffee, I recall talking to TS yesterday about coffee. This coffee connoisseur splurges on quality South American coffee and is so serious about her coffee that she even brings her own coffee beans and grinding tool with her when she travels. LOL! I can only say Orz to this girl, 真的五體投地!She mentioned some of her favourite coffee during our chat but they sounded like Greek to me…hahaha! TS, you sure know your stuff!
Why talk about coffee today, you must be wondering. Well, I once told a friend that life is like coffee, you can choose to have it black, with sugar and even add some colour to it with some milk. Isn’t life the same? If you think your life is bitter, it will taste bitter. But if you’re smart enough to add some sugar to it, you get to enjoy both the aroma and the sweetness and it can perk you up for the day. Add some milk to it, and it would be so colourful, isn’t it so?
Why is it that some people find black coffee awful and bitter but yet others like it so much, they can’t live a day without it? Well, coffee like life, is an acquired taste. The ignorant will lament over its darkness and bitterness while the connoisseurs will enjoy its aroma as well as appreciate its richness as it keeps them alert and active for the day.
Learn to appreciate your life like coffee. There’s so much for us to choose from…there’s expresso for the strong-hearted, the trendy ones can choose to have café cappuccino, mocha and latté (not the one that sleeps in the cage…hehe!) and many more other specialty coffee.
It’s all a matter of choice, really. Learn to appreciate it…coffee or life, whatever you like to call it. My weak heart forbids me to have a double shot of expresso but I do enjoy a cup of cappuccino every now and then on top of my morning cuppa. :)

hey Swooshi
I like this posting because I am also a coffee drinker and can relate to it. Cheers
coffee tea or me?
這一篇文章我看的懂耶
人生就像喝coffee是吧?
我最愛喝lattle啦.
淡淡的,很順口.
記得阿甘他老媽,曾經對他說:
人生就好像吃巧克力,如果不去嘗試.
永遠不會知道下一個吃到的,會是甚麼味道.
哈哈,所以囉
要不斷的去吃不同口味的巧克力來體驗人生.
(這是joe的神經解釋啦)
小心發胖喔.掰

剛喝著咖啡同時流灠著這裡的文章..看到這篇時突然又想到..其實咖加也不是只有加牛奶和糖才會有不一樣的味道喔..就像平常我還滿喜歡吃香蕉配咖啡的..果酸味特濃..好喝..
剛剛吃完一顆糖果..本以為再喝咖啡會較苦..但完全沒有..我想我喝的是好咖啡吧..哈..這家咖啡我有信心..swooshi..下次你來台灣我一定給你一些帶回去..^_^
Hi Swooshi,
I prefer plain green tea, very healthy, tastes good with milk too. It's definitely a matter of choice, like everything else in life.:)

Hi Swooshi,
Something's wrong with my computer. The latest post I can see here is Have a Cuppa Everyday, no matter how many times I click the refresh button. Don't know why.
