dreaming of starbucks

This morning I missed Starbucks more than ever. Where I live in Australia - we dont have a Starbucks - its depressing! I used to (shamefully) go to Starbucks back home pretty much everyday, if not twice a day. It started to become sad when everyone there knows you on a personal basis. What is your favorite drink?

Last night was so lovely. Nathan and I went out to drop off a movie - then he asked me if I wanted to go for a drive. We went to a hill in Townsville called "Castle Hill" where you can see the entire city. Its so so beautiful up there. We went for a bit of a walk until we got to this perfect spot that we could see the city and have enough wind to get rid of the mosquitos.

Then he stole my heart...


We were standing there, and he put on "Litzsomania" on his ipod (Im obsessed with this song!) and we both started DANCING! It was the funnest thing ever. And I dont mean dancing for 5 seconds then getting over it, I mean, dancing for the whole song, at the top of this hill. Without a care in the world or concern if anyone could see me, I was in my own little world and over-taken by Nathans [hidden] dance skills! We then put on coldplay/death cab for cutie songs and slow-danced. Best night of this year so far!

This morning I just didnt want to wake up. I dont know whats wrong with me lately. I am just so in love with sleeping. I never used to be. Its almost like I anticipate the moment that I am so tired that I can jump into my cozy bed and fall off into a deep sleep. That excites me. Does that excite any of you, or am I fully crazy?

Well - This is what I wore today. One of my favorite dresses. Its lace and crochet and oh so lovely. I wore it with socks that go past my ankle and flat black shoes..I wanted the matilda 'school girl' look. Anyways...lots of things to do today and not enough time to do it. t Have a fantastic wednesday. <3

  3. I don't go to Starbucks often. I find it a little overpriced but the drinks certainly are delicious.
    I prefer smoothies, tea and water.
    Missing the Timmy's at all? :P

  10. I love your blog! This lace dress is sooo pretty, and I like how you paired it with black shoes, so unexpected. I dislike Starbucks in general, but seeing as how it's the only coffee shop on my campus, I do go there a couple of times a week. Usually I get an iced latte with a shot of caramel syrup, but I also love the green tea lattes and the cinnamon dolce lattes. Mmm...

  12. Starbucks is deeefinitely a luxury item for me, but I do like their frappucinos (yummm, $8 diabetes). I love the dress, but it's the dance party story that made me smile. I was just saying yesterday how "Lisztomania" is totally a "stand up and DANCE!" song! Clearly you know that by now. :)

  13. Cute dress! I just bought one similar, gotta love tan & lace! Oh, and I work at Starbucks! You should come to Vb sometime and I will get you a free drink, hehe :) I drink a grande apple chai! Iced, on a hot day.

    And that story about you and Nathan made me smile soo much! Reminded me of the other day, a song came on and me and Pat just started singing at the top of our lungs! (More like screaming!)

  17. That's such a cute story about the hilltop! Why can't I find boys like this?! Do I have to move to Australia, too??? If so I will be booking my flight shortly.

    To answer your questions: my favorite Starbucks drink is the Green Tea Latte, and I LOVE sleep. I love sleep unhealthily, in that I go through bottles of Nyquil a month in an attempt to get a solid, dreamless night of sleep without tossing or turning. I just hope Nyquil isn't a gateway drug.
