Discount!

So today I found out that you can actually get a discount at Starbucks if you bring your own cup. I got like 20 cents off my coffee this morning because I used my carafe. Sweet!! Woohoo for Starbucks!!

Nothing like a cuppa ...

6am - Rise and shine! (is it considered shine if the sun is not up yet?)

7am - Breakfast

7:20am - Leave the house and get stuck in a miserable traffic jam

8:10am - Starbucks on Sycamore View (had to wait 10 mins in the drive-thru)

8:20am - Arrive at work

8:30am - Starting the day with a cup of Starbucks at my side - priceless!

Love the new Starbucks carafe mum and dad got for me from Singapore ... keeps my coffee nice and warm, not too hot, not too cool, just the right temp to start my day!

And the latest news on campus is that we're getting a new Starbucks in place of Java Cafe at the library ... this will be the fourth Starbucks store on campus! Woohoo!

So I'm back

So I'm finally back to blogging after taking a hiatus for a couple of months. So much has happened since then of course, but to spare the long story (or stories), I'm just gonna start anew here. So university life has been awesome ... despite the workload and pressure, learning all this stuff is so enriching. And the people have been great ... I'm able to spend more time meeting friends and new acquaintances and I love being a people-person (which I believe I am more now than before). Even though I've been here in Memphis for the past 3 years or so, I'm experiencing life in a totally new dimension than before .. every day is a learning experience. I'm loving it! Well, as my favorite quote goes:

Cherish Yesterday, Live Today, Dream Tomorrow

Awesomeness!
