Coffee and me~~~





I cant help it if I love coffee... It has been in me for most of my life.. through-in and throughout, through the bad and the good, through hail or storm or on sunny days... I LOVE COFFEE...!!! I cant help it... I do not think less of those who dont like coffee.. But what I know for sure is that I love coffee... I think coffee breath is an attractive quality rather than a negative one... I love talking to a person who has coffee breath.. Rather than think. "brush your teeth man!" or "take a mint or something!!" , I would say, "hmmmm..." in a good way! It fascinates me how you can turn a simple coffee into some sort of art to marvel on... I remeber this one time I was in a coffee joint in Birmingham. I ordered a latte and it was the Christmas holidays. So the barrister did a Santa Claus as a decoration with the foamed milk. When I collected my coffee at the counter, I closed my eyes and inhaled the amazing scent that coffee has and opened my eyes. The barrister was watching me when I did that and so understandably he has this amused smile. He was startled however when I exclaimed, "WOW!!!! HOW'D YOU DO THAT???" The barrister heard me wrongly and said, "oh did I get you order wrong miss?" and I said, "no no!! you got it perfectly! I love the Santa Claus on it..." He laughed and said, "wow, I can see you are a coffee lover!" and I said, "obviously!!" He laughed and said, "you should be a barrister someday..." The moment he said those words I swear I was seriously considering of dropping all and take a course on making coffee... and not the public policy course I was taking! But then I landed unpleasantly into reality and realised that I cant really do that! I was on scholarship for God's sake! I have responsibilities! and so, here I am, not pursuing to be a barrister... But I keep life interesting by being adventurous coffee-wise. I will get a coffee any chance I get... and I will continue doing so, hopefully far into the future...
