It feels like love, it feels like you I have everything that I need You have stolen my heart Love is waiting Musing lazily on love, pondering you I can't explain myself, I'm afraid, Sir, because I'm not myself you see

On Starbucks Planners and Decembers

Posted by Riz in Photography  

(This is an obligatory 2009 Starbucks Planner post.)

Have you got your SB planner yet? Got mine about a week ago, and currently halfway through the second sticker card.

I’m not crazy about this year’s planners, I actually don’t dig the calendar’s experimental vertical format. But since about 5 or 6 years ago, collecting Starbucks stickers has become something like putting up Christmas trees in December. It’s irresistible, it’s tradition, it’s something you just have to do because hey, you go to Starbucks like, everyday, anyway.

Now what I’m really crazy about is Toffee Nut Latte. Ahh. Just saying its name out loud makes me crave. Up to now I still don’t understand why it’s available only during the Holidays. Then again, it’s a reason (one of the many) for me to look forward to this time of the year.

So forget all my sad thoughts about Christmas, there are just a lot of reasons to celebrate, and to be happy, and to be filled with hope whenever this time of the year comes by. (That’s a schizo moment right there, I’m preaching to myself, don’t mind me.)

I think I’m ready to face December now.

Ako rin, I’m not too crazy about the new Starbucks planners. Then again, even if I was, I’d only write up to March and forget all about it. Haha!

Merry Christmas to you & Rico!

Omg, I want a Starbucks Planner to! So nice! :-D

First time commenting your blog (guess it wont be the last), even though I’ve followed it for a while, have to say I love it!
But you have to start posting again, hihi :-)
