2 thumbs & a dummy

Today was the first time I ever had a long black and it nearly blew me out of my chair! O.O Literally had me bug-eyed too. I’m no fan of coffe and least of all the ones you get here. In simple words, I like the Chinaman’s coffee from the kopitiam and not those cafe coffees like Gloria Jeans, Starbucks and all that. To honest the smell of coffee, THAT coffee, puts me off.

But today, I had to make an exception. I was up almost all night last night. Poor KR got a bad case of the cold and she’s just been dreaful. Poor little thing!! On top of a snuffly and runny nose, she also developed a fever. The fever was nutters! One time up and drops a little then goes up….thank goodness I have those stick to your forehead fever cooling patches that are meant for babies coz I wouldn’t know how to keep a wet towel on her forehead!

She was such an unhappy little vegemite. The longest stretch she ever slept through was 2 hours. And then she’d wake up crying. So pitiful. I really hope she’s better now. And thank goodness it’s Friday coz another one of those nights and I’d be a walking zombie!

Hence the reason why I have resorted to buying me a long black. Omg, it’s so thick and bitter….. >.< Being one who likes drinks sweet, I have actually poured in 5 serves of sugar and diluted the coffee. Icky I know but it's still so strong! I have no idea how my cousins can drink short black without sugar. =.= I think if I tried that, I’d just go bald on the spot!

Nothing will ever beat my good ol’ teh tarik!
