Whatever Happened To Just Plain Coffee?

It was pass 9 pm and I am still enjoying a good slack on a couch inside Starbucks Coffee in Glorietta when a neatly folded newspaper caught my attention. Perhaps it could be the unusual layout and text embedded on the broadsheet which apparently got my interest despite of feeling sleepy and not-enthusiastic for a la-dee-daa talk. The paper is published by BusinessMirror and bannered a caffeine-oriented phrase "I sip, therefore, I am", pre-empting an advertorial of Starbucks Coffee. "Starbucks makes sure you can be alone when you're out if you really needed to be" says Jill Lawless of Associated Press.

Ever since I moved to Makati office, I'm pleased to discover the fact that there are few good coffee places near my office. Its like I never left the coffee heaven Emerald Avenue. (Ortigas). I've got UCC, Starbucks, Seattles Best, Old Manila and I couldn't ask for more. But as for my doctors advise to limit my coffee intake simply because I put lots of sugar to my coffee (think prevention) and so I settled for a regular McDo drip coffee for 25 bucks. My new Starbucks spill-proof canister is now accostumed in its role as "water glass" and occassionally as paper wieght. On the practical aspect, I'd rather spend my hundreds on a cab than coffee each day except on Tuesdays where I got to see Ms. Rice Crackers.
