I just don't feel grown up enough to take the plunge. I also have never consumed a cup of coffee, but this is 3 years more amazing than Mars’ efforts.

The best was a mocha for 220yen. SO CHEAP!!! Jen- Yeah I know it is the milk (I realize now that when I started working in a cafe/restaurant last year it did not help put a stop to my growing cafine addiction...free coffee...how could you say no?)...cinnamon should not even enter the equation.....now the chocolate sprinkle stuff...well that is Ok!! Enny- I don't drink beer. I can drink beer if I am already drunk and have nothing left to drink. I did have a beer called hollandia once which was actually quite good but everything else leaves me feeling a little bit ill. Renwick- Must go in search of a caremellatte I think...sounds devine. Then again I really should stop buying so much coffee...or looking for lunch sets that include a drink so that I can get a coffee...Tomorrow I am taking my lunch to school but I know I will still buy a coffee on the way or at the break...damn myself to hell Tokenwoman- Yay, now I know your email I can apply to be added to your readers list. I was so sad when I realized I could not read your blog anymore!!! I wish I could go back to when coffee made me shake or get a little kick...It is something you never get back. pomgirl- You are british...If you didn't drink beer I would be worried...but then again they say that about some aussies to now don't they. Shumpei wants a coffee grinder....I do not know why since he never drinks hot coffee and we have no space to put it. It we had space I think I would want one... Chicky babe- I never really got into the green tea frappuccino BUT I am getting used to green tea and chinese type teas...ALthough I used to hate it. I am loving your Japan updates from your trip still...Your photos are awesome...Loved the boob puddings especially!! mars- We should write to the president and do something about that shouldn't we...Are you February 18th as well? or 19th perhaps? I don't know if i beleive you about the cup of coffee...what about coffee from a bottle or can...mmm...coffee from a can!! I love hot coffee in the vending machines that comes out hot...I don't think it is very healthy though! Well off to bed and only had three coffees today. The best was a mocha for 220yen. SO CHEAP!!!

Do you beleive that? Because i'm telling the truth. Also, mildly interestingly, i'm an Aquarian too, but the American publications always want to make me a Piscies. I mean, i wouldn't mind being a Piscies if they had a cool, generation-crossing song written about them. But they don't, and i demand recognition for being of the Age of Aquarius! fin.

But seeing the Starbucks logo and considering you live in Japan, you've reminded me of the green tea frappuccino that I fell in love with over there. It was perfect in the heat and humidity!

On a morning I grind my own beens and do the plunger thing...I love the whole process and find it really therapeutic.

Much cheaper that way :) I’ve had half a cup of coffee in my entire life and it made me shake so much that I’ve never bothered to have more…

I would have to say that it is also a social thing for me as well. My current favourite is the Caramellatte, it's pretty much a latte with caramel syrup through it. Yummy, just the right amout of coffee and sweetness ;-) My regular coffee started this year when I began afternoon classes, it was an attempt to say awake, but when that didn’t work I just enjoyed the sugar & caffine hit that I got.

I worked as a barista (sp?!) for a little while, and I seem to recall that there's more milk in a cappacino, plus the size of the glass as well... tho as I coffee non drinker I can't tell you much more than that! I don't drink any hot drinks, so I think it's a combination of my dislike of the bitterness and the dislike of super hot scalding in my mouth. I also don't drink beer... or wine... or milk!!!

I don't mind a coffee but I've had some disgusting coffees in the past few years so I normally choose tea, it's always the less disappointing option. I quite like Starbucks, I used to drink it fairly often until I realised I was spending about $15 a week on iced drinks so I nixed that habit. The iced vanilla cream fappacino are my Starbucks drink of choice :) Beer on the other hand, I hope I never grow into. It tastes disgusting, smells disgusting, and gives you a gut. I'd just die if I ever started to like beer. Ick! P.S From my 6 months doing a hpositality course, the amount of milk and froth define a cappacino from a latte, cinnamon shouldn't come into it (I don't like it either).
