Coffee Break

 
Today I meet up with Dave at Second Cup for a much needed coffee break. Sometimes it just feels great to sit with a friend for a couple of hours and let out all your pent up anxiety and school-related stress.
 
Dave was feeling festive (probably because of the flurries we had throughout the day) and decided to get a warm apple cider. I went with my usual caramel latte order, but I was really excited when I saw how pretty the barista made the caramel design.
 
 
I was really impressed! I’ve never received a caramel latte with a design as intricate as this. I’ve always wanted to order a latte at one of those local coffee shops that create patterns and designs using the steamed milk (like this one here), but this will do for now!
 
 
Like a lot of my guy friends, Dave has been growing a mustache for Movember this year. Personally, I find it looks a little strange on his baby face. I let Dave have a look at some pictures I took this evening and his reply was simply, “I don’t know how I feel about this facial hair”. I have to agree with him, but at least it’s for a good cause!
 
 
I also brought some chocolate for Dave and I to enjoy while sipping our warm beverages. It was a great idea. I should definitely make a point of taking frequent coffee breaks with friends more often in the future. Even when things are busy it’s great to step away from things for a few hours to catch up.
 
 
I also got to make my wish on 11:11 today! I’ve been looking forward to this day for nearly 2 years, because it marks the date 11/11/11, making wishing on 11:11 so much luckier. I missed the morning 11:11 because I was in a meeting at the Alumni House, but I did manage to catch the evening one just a few minutes ago. I had actually forgotten about it, but as I strolled into the kitchen I caught a glimpse of the clock on the stove and my timing was perfect. I feel like it’s even luckier that I caught it spontaneously. I hope my wish comes true!
 
I hope you guys had a good remembrance day and best wishes!
Lest we forget.

  1. Hi there! I just wanted to ask if you ever have any
    trouble with hackers? My last blog (wordpress) was hacked and I ended up losing months of hard work due to no data backup.
    Do you have any methods to protect against hackers?

  2. After I initially commented I seem to have clicked the -Notify
    me when new comments are added- checkbox and from now
    on each time a comment is added I get 4 emails with the exact
    same comment. Perhaps there is a way you can remove me
    from that service? Cheers!

  3. Hello there! This post couldn’t be written any better!

  6. Hi there this is kind of of off topic but I was wondering if
    blogs use WYSIWYG editors or if you have to manually code with HTML.
    I’m starting a blog soon but have no coding know-how so I wanted to get advice from someone with experience.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated!

  7. of course like your web site but you have to test the spelling on quite a
    few of your posts. A number of them are rife with spelling issues and I
    to find it very bothersome to inform the reality on the other hand I’ll certainly come again again.

  10. Hey! I know this is kind of off topic but I was wondering which blog platform are you using for this site?
    I’m getting sick and tired of WordPress because I’ve had problems with hackers
    and I’m looking at options for another platform. I
    would be great if you could point me in the direction of a good platform.

  11. Hmm is anyone else experiencing problems with the images on this blog loading?
    I’m trying to determine if its a problem on my end
    or if it’s the blog. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
