productivity, caffeine and pinings for the snow..

i love working at a cafe. the smell of coffee... fresh muffins just out of the oven (YUM... especially the raspberrywhitechocolateones.. mmmmm.....)... the adrenaline rush during lunch hour... chatting with random people... the joy that comes with feeding people... haha... and of course my bosses (mario and maria). they're awesome. absolutely love working with them :D plus i just got a pay raise. so hooray for me! ;)

i'm going to miss the cafe culture in melbourne. all the little lanes with their quaint little cafes and restaurants. so much more character (and heaps better unadulterated coffee) than starbucks, coffee bean... gloria jeans... you know... the usual stuff we get back home. but i'm glad that some little places have opened up that have great coffee for a decent price. one of them is just opposite my place in sg - peaberry and pretzel. love their coffee. nice flavour, good texturing. and they have a huge new shiny coffee machine. it has little fairy lights! although i don't think that really adds to the flavour of the coffee... it makes me smile. i like shiny things :)

i've also been incredibly productive this week (applause please!). i'm very proud of myself. haha. drove up to boxhill to study at mia's a couple of times. no internet, and no other distractions. not even food! it was great.i forgot how peaceful it is in the suburbs, and how much easier it is to concentrate. the power of the burbs.

i wanna go back to the snow. 80cm cover this week! arrggghhhh!!!
