Summer at Starbucks!


Summer isn't over yet for Starbucks!
In fact - it just started.

Here are the two new drinks of Starbucks this Summer!!

Chocolate Black Tea with Earl Grey Jelly



Double Chocolate Green Tea



Which was my favorite?  Well, I LOVE Green Tea and I love the taste of milk tea - so BOTH!  Hahaha.. :)  I am a green tea purist.  I never add anything in my green tea drink, ever - so when I saw the chocolate - I was skeptical.  But when I tried it - it worked!  The chocolate made the drink more interesting!  The Chocolate Black Tea was a revelation - it reminded me of the Hojicha drink a few years back (which I dearly miss!)  The earl grey jelly is so refreshingly wonderful that I can have more and more of it!  Hahaha...

As for the food, they're heavenly as usual.  They do have a new player though - the Cassava Chips!  It's the healthier type of chips - it's GLUTEN FREE and a bag is only 100 calories!  Hihi..  They taste good too!



Below are the lovely lovely food!  I personally love the pancakes!  They're a nice alternative to my favorite French Toast!  Hihi.. :)

Learning Mandarin, what method is best?

I studied in a sort of Chinese school for 13 years. So that "sort of' means, I SHOULD know how to speak basic Mandarin right? NOT QUITE!! I studied in a Chinese school where we only get less than an hour of Chinese class daily.  When you think about it, well - one hour a day, should be okay - but the problem is, at that time - it was pure memorization.  The books that we used, were those traditional books that I honestly have no idea what is written in them.  I see Chinese characters and they're just that - Chinese characters without meaning, nothing.  It was not practical if you ask me.  The words we were taught were not used in everyday conversation It was only during my 3rd or 4th year of high school that I realized how important knowing how to speak Chinese was.  It was during a trip to the Chinese border from Hong Kong that while I was going around the mall, I was having a hard time communicating with people who looked like me.  I wa...
