simply wanna post something pretty here real quick. only 3 weeks into the semester and i’m exhausted already. students aren’t good. i’m so bored and tired.
how will we play today against birmingham, i wonder?
image from pottery barn. beautiful indeed.
i miss xabi still and all the time, especially when we didn’t play well. i hope – i wish – that this guy will – can- keep our hope afloat.

working on sunday isn’t much of the burden to me. i’m glad to get out of the house. saturday, that’s another story. it feels that my energy is all drained out all week. come saturday, i just die. can’t even lift a finger.
teaching extra class exposes me to a melodrama in the world. first is a student who is so out of tune of the real world, aka socially ignorant. then today, i get to meet the mother wears prada.
rich people are annoying in that they presume people are at their disposal. that i teach her son doesn’t make me her staff. i’m a teacher, a respectable and honorable profession. keep that in mind, bitch.
we are in an era where coffee business is competing to the max. walking along a street means you will deliberately encounter a pleasant view of, at least, one coffee shop along the way. latte, espresso, cappuccino, macchiato, mocha… are some regular choices we will see once reading down the list of menu.
doi tung (the name comes from the mountain in the north of thailand) enters this realm of business to promote the local wisdom. in the commercial world as it is, a unique offer, coffee wise, must be present to insert itself into the market. what i tried today, ladies and gents, is a coffee with japanese syrup, called kokuto. it is poured at the bottom of the cup, followed by milk, and coffee. the idea is novel. the likeness towards the tasted is divided. the barista suggested putting the straw down the bottom, w/o stirring, to get the sweetness of the syrup. other tastes would also be blended simultaneously. what i actually had was a gulp of extremely sweet syrup and it was the 1st thing to evaporate to my tube. then came the coffee ( i don’t know where all the milk went) which is too bitter to like. i don’t really get it. the barista said put the straw down the end, and i did exactly just what she said. not only did the elements not blend together, the tastes were separated; sweet then bitter. and that doesn’t make it bitter sweet.
all in all, do i like it? i have to say i enjoy the taste of that japanese syrup. i will give it another try but i’ll stir it thoroughly before giving it a big gulp.
won’t make me feel better. they are simply things, i’m aware of that. but human as i only am, i want/wish/desire things to make me look/feel cool externally.
why liverpool didn’t win tonight i didn’t know. i like football and regularly watch the matches yet the tactics elude me. could last season be the best season we could ever have for the modern day liverpool? i am sad, disappointed, and hopeless. how come getting a trophy -no- the trophy seems like such an unattainable dream for the reds?
my perfect start of the day would consist of a cup of jo (whose last name is starbucks), some yummy bread, then off to work, accompanied by my macbook and moleskine. nice dress, sensible heels, and classic shoulder bag. the props are ready and the rest is up to me.
when my dreams haven’t realized, i keep dreaming, keep wishing, and work hard to make them happen.
and some day they will.
iphone and macbook by apple, starbucks cup from google image search, notebook by moleskine, beautiful girl in polka dot dress is liebemarlene, manolo blahnik shoes from vogue magazine, and bag by proenza schouler ps1
shout out to the world. i like the current job i have, teaching english at my university. i also want to teach extra classes at that famous artistic university. and i want to write. i want to get a job writing for a magazine or for that business news network.
i hope to teach many classes this coming semester, and more.
i love working on my macbook. i hope to get a writing job some day.
p.s. my love is like a red red kop. go mighty reds. YNWA
my health check-up report arrived yesterday. the result isn’t very pleasant; the cholesterol is higher than standard. the need to eat healthy is required.
i like silk the most. it’s tasty and even better now that it’s on sale. the left box is mulberry juice from doi kam. i don’t know if it tastes good but the brand produces the yummiest strawberry juice (on right)
ok, this is not healthy but i should satisfy my sweet tooth and be done w/ it.
today is my last day of work. final exam is graded. score is submitted. done.
dropped by black canyon before leaving for home. ordered mocha today. i like the saying on the cup “coffee and love are best when they are hot” not necessary agree ‘coz i really prefer iced mocha. and i take love as it is, hot, lukewarm, sweet, easygoing, cool down. as long as you love me ha ha ha
