Liberating Thoughts

It's quite liberating not having to worry about the money, status, possession and authority. Life gets so much easier and enjoyable without them. This is my personal experience and my own opinion. I feel happy when I know that I am sharing my blessings with other people. I wonder if I can have the same generosity if I were a millionaire!

Learning English

I started learning the alphabet in 4th standard. 6 years later, our English text book was Wuthring Heights by Emily Bronte. I picked up the pronunciation from wherever I could and never got round to learn the phonetics. I know that people have different accents. However, at least I want other people to understand what I am talking about and therefore I want to pronounce the words correctly, at least in English accents.

Starbucks

Here is where I have my English lessons. I am not a keen coffee drinker but the atmosphere makes me feel good. If I am hungry I also have a piece of cake with my coffee. I know a few people who are Starbucks' die-hard fans but I am not. You can't be that serious for a cup of coffee. Surely, coffee can't be that different, high and low calories?
