Alright, 17 Dec 2008 has come and passed (nearly - it’s 10.30pm now!).

Anyone out there was silly or crazy as me to specially pay a visit to the very-expensive, always-thought-over-priced coffee outlet, the one we call Starbucks to get the Rm10 tumbler after purchasing a grande size drink?

Well, I did! I am happy.. even though most people walking in and out in this country most probably own the same thing as well.

Maybe that is what makes us proud to be a Malaysian.

Gonna bring this to London and it would then stand out. Like I say, proud to be Malaysian, k?

A toffee nut frappuccinno is the best drink from Starbucks Coffee. Well, at least for this Christmas season. Today alone, I drank two drinks. Guilty, but it was definitely a sinful indulgence, I tell you.

For that, I bought the 2009 planner as well..

A cup of frappucinno can be so expensive! However, it is always rewarding to buy some for your siblings.. making them appreciate coffee, or vanilla, for that matter.

Sometimes, I do wonder - how can anyone afford such expensive coffee? It’s like nearly RM20 per cup. Alright, say it’s Rm15 per day.. you take it every weekend.. two cups. Rm30 per weekend multiplied by 4 equals to Rm120.

RM120 merely for coffee?

If you’re a fresh grad, you probably earn RM1-2k plus. That’s like about 10% of your income.

Expensive huh!

I would say Starbucks may be nice, addictive and rich, but it is definitely expensive in terms of $$ and calories. ‘Nuff said. Get myself a cup of black coffee. Friendly towards my calories and hopefully more economically for my pocket as well.

I am just over hyper, thanks to indulging in some good ‘Christmas’ edition coffee (hint, it has ’star’ and it has the ‘bucks’).

Well, I realised that while I could be a sucker when it comes to guys who play musical instruments, I also quite a deep passion towards coffee, a friend I found some 7 or so years ago. It started with just an instant 3-in-1 coffee introduced by my dad, but ever since then, I never looked back. It was from instant coffee to black coffee to french press brewed coffee.

Yum! Slurp, whatever.

While coffee makes me hyper, I am also always on a weight watch. Ask me and I can tell you the 101 tips you can try to lose weight. Can’t guarantee you can lose the weight, but never a loss to try. There are everything the vege soup diet to the slimming gel. I shall release my tip one by one.. won’t want to flood everything in one post. Speaking of which, you may want to have a look at Orovo, a slimming pill in the market.
