Completed Project 2

When i looked back at when was my last post i was surprise that it was exactly 2 weeks ago. It is always a shocker to discover that time flew by so quickly without you realizing it. And i feel as if i have been cheated because i never knew where it had gone. But at least i know that i did do something with it. Even if it wasn't that much. So the last post i showed a rose i was making to be put together for a hair accessory. But silly me i forgot i was suppose to take a picture of the completed project before handing it over to my colleague. So maybe i can go take a picture tomorrow or something. Next up is another completed hair clip in the shape of a hat for another colleague.

Now is to make the final one for myself. And i have no idea what to make. Looking for ideas. Anyways we are suppose to wear this for a 'tea party' we are having for a farewell for our colleague which is off to the US of A to be with her fiance and also look for work there. Sigh isn't it dreamy.

Current Project and a few random pictures

I know its been a week since i posted. My mind has been a blank sheet for the week. Trying to unblank it. So Instead of words i shall replace it with a couple of pictures. Pictures always works better anyways. First of the most recent. I have been having this project in my head for a while. One step at a time i am going to do things i want to do. And i am trying to keep that promise to myself.

And that is a summary of life for me so far. Still working on many things.

Starbucks Vs Coffee Bean

Once Upon a time many moons ago, i worked in Coffee Bean for the semester break. Those were the days when i get to have a glass of aaaannnnyyyy kind of coffee/drink i would like each day. Even before then i was an avid coffee drinker. Which explains the fact of why i chose to work there. Other than the fact that they were one of the higher paying part time employers around.

My love with Coffee Bean actually began when my uncle brought us all on a treat to coffee bean for ice blended. It was indeed heaven. So when i was working there, and had my share of coffee, there was once when Starbucks the rival was giving out free sample. I took one sip of it and told myself no way am I ever going to be a fan of Starbucks because they have too much milk in their coffee. I love the kick of the strong coffee taste which Coffee Bean provides.

Even after i stopped working there i still had to have my once in a while fill especially of their iced caremel latte. But then they closed the pyramid branch. And the rest of the ppl were more inclined to Starbucks. So i made do with having my coffee from there when they decided to meet up there. I did go back to the branch in taipan for my caremel latte once. But they screwed up my order. Just recently they reopened in Pyramid and last weekend i decided to reignite my old flame with Coffee Bean and went to order an iced caramel latte. To my horror, i find that i actually prefered Starbucks' caramel macchiato over Coffee Bean's iced caramel latte. What have these 7 yrs done to me. I could not believe myself.

But anyways what i didnt like was their vanilla powder which they add to the coffee. Wierdly enough it didnt melt completely and caused the drink to have a grainy feel to it. It is so sad. But i think i am still not giving up. Next time i will order an iced latte to test water. I really want to rediscover my love with Coffee Bean. Starbucks is over rated.
