Daily Moo's 11022010

It's November and I can feel the cold wind blowing. Oh that's just the air conditioning unit... nothing to be afraid about like its snowing in Manila... people could die from that.

I wanted to go to the CREAM Halloween Ball but decided not to go last minute. I go out too much these days. I need a massage more than anything else. I always go to bars and end up drunk then swear never to drink again because of the hangover. It's a vicious cycle!

I'm going some place where most tourists have been before. I'm going with my folks and sister so this is going to be a little troublesome for me. I pay the bills... well most of it.

I haven't paid my phone bills yet. I will have to eventually but I'm doing a lot of things these days. Don't worry I might be able to do that after this post. Bancnet is probably online now.

Did you know that the Starbucks Planner for 2010 is out?! Yeap! So start collecting those stickers and cards again so you can get the planner for free. Well not really, you need to drink a ton of frapuccinos and get nervous before you get one. Did I say you'll pay close to a few thousand pesos too? It's a marketing trap and we are all falling for it!

Some Jolina Fans are bugging me over Facebook claiming I said something bad about their idol on an article. If you really read the fine print, it was all about just turning up the volume (hence I was talking about the audio) and not about the artist. Did you really read the post I made?! Spare me the drama... puhleaaase!

Off to Singapore! See you there! =)

Somewhere at Starbucks...

I am sitting here in Starbucks right now with a cup of Dark Cherry Mocha on the side. I think I am just lounging around and finding a muse to write about. Maybe this planner thing is also getting on my nerves too because I still have a long way to go to get that planner that induces puyat. Hahaha I know how it feels to get drugged with caffeine and I need to do that since you need around 24 to get one. I will probably have to drink everyday because the deadline is on the 15th and I will get this by hook or by crook. Why in the world am I always saying that? I don’t want to be a crook LOL

I just saw a couple of friends, and it looks like they are doing the same thing. I wonder how much coffee we already have in our blood. If we go here everyday, we probably consume around 40 percent of our fluids here. Where do we go when we need blood transfusion in the future? Maybe in a different branch; but still Starbucks heheh.


Why are coffee shops in the Philippines treated as social stature requirements? I mean if a guy does not go to these establishments, you probably would be treated differently if your friends go here too. Later on in life we will complain of diabetes and heart conditions because of the tons of coffee we drank here. Is it right to even publicize this? Does the positive effect outnumber the bad in drinking coffee? What do you think we should do in this day and age? Should we create our own brand just like Australia who eventually closed hundreds of shops down under because they have their own brand now?

I wonder if the KAPENG BARAKO would fare nicely against the giants of the coffee labels in the Philippines. There is a big market and we just have not tapped into it yet. Have you thought about not buying that 200 peso cup from Starbucks? Should we or not patronize it? I am not an expert but I think its just expensive… but the ease of drinking with someone preparing it for you is grand! I think that is the one you are paying for. Not just this, but the ambiance too. Anybody planning to treat me coffee today? Just let me know! Hahaha!

The STARBUCKS PLANNER 2009 : Whatyathink?!

This is the new planner... Red, Blue and Black. Is it worth it?

The coffee lovers past time; can I seriously complete these stickers for that Planner? O_O

I still have my 2007 Leather bound Planner with Starbucks silver Pen at home, I also have last year's planner that was not that appealing. I was waiting for this one since I was anticipating a better one, well to my surprise I found a small hard bound notebookish thingy on the shelves of the store. They gave me my card which I need to fill up every time I get me cup of coffee from the same store. This ain't right... we were expecting more but it became waaaaay simpler and ordinary. I did not even see if this was tied up to the same charity that was previously advertised. Could the money from this just go to something else we don't know? That's just another story.

To complete this and get that planner I need to consume 16 cups or more of these:

Holiday featured Beverages ( 8 Stickers )

Dark Cherry Mocha
Toffee But Latte
Praline Mocha <<< This was the one I ordered yesterday! It was good and nutty!

Beverage of your choice ( 8 Stickers ) so you can probably choose the regulars. I perhaps would just take my everyday Caramel Macchiato for this! ^_^
