After each and every heartbreak, ultra hard exam, failed grade, awkward situation that I get, I never forget to give myself a reason to be happy. In fact, all of us need a reason to be happy for every painful and stupid thing that life throws at us and for me, I comfort myself using food or as many people say - comfort food. :-)
1. Soya Milk + Choco Chip Cookie. Soya milk doesn't make my stomach grumble every time I drink it and it becomes more of a blessing especially when you down it alongside a cookie with lots of chocolate chips in it - feels like home away from home (when you're eating it outside of you house of course).
2. Wintermelon Milktea. Now this is the bomb especially when it's from Moonleaf, oh my glob. Drinking this after a long day in school with no "aircon" where you have to walk from building to building on a hot sunny day is a piece of heaven of earth.
3. English Breakfast Tea Latte. From Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf. Well this is one of the best teas that my taste buds have ever tasted! A bit pricey 'cause it's small for a hundred thirty bucks or so but it's totally worth it. I like drinking this after every chemistry long test that I take. Helps me forget the battle that I've gone through...
4. Double cheeseburger and fries with lots and lots of ketchup. McDo has thought of the best things a student dormer needs when facing a very tiring week. Just munching on that double cheeseburger can help make things feel a little lighter, especially when you ADD FRIES WITH IT, oh my gosh I think I'm drooling..
5. Green Tea Frapuccino. One of my fave frappes in Starbucks because it's caffeine free (I think) 'cause I can't take in large amounts of it since it gives me palpitations. Adding hazelnut (just tell the barista! but sometimes, they're even the ones to ask you if you want to add some) makes it even mores special because it enhances the flavor of the drink. I always feel relaxed each time I drink it.
6. Strawberry Cream Smoothie. I'm guessing not all of you are familiar with this 'cause this can only be bought (I think....for the 2nd time) in a tea shop near my dorm called, "FrosTea". They serve really good milkteas and smoothies but some of my friends actually don't like it since they like milkteas that are more on tea than milk (which I don't like). Anyway, you guys should really try it, it's the perfect drink when you're having an all-nighter since it keeps you awake but still helps you fall asleep (that's how it works for me....)
7. Donuts. My all-time fave donut shop is still Krispy Kreme. Okay, J. Co's the "new" thing right now, yeah, it's healthier than KK but what the hell! Nothing beats the classic Krispy Kreme Honey-glazed D's. Plus their super unique donuts with Kitkat and Toblerone White pieces...come one, WHO DOES NOT LIKE KITKAT AND TOBLERONE??????????!!!
8. Ice Cream and . I've never like buying expensive ice cream which is why I have "sorbetes" first on my list of face ice creams (is ice creams even a correct word?). Sorbetes is the Filipino term for dirty ice cream, it's really cheap, you can buy it more or less than five to thirty pesos (the price depends on the cone of your choice). I like buying ice cream in UP Student Center and in AdMU's Gonzaga cafeteria. Of course, there are others: Swensen's, Haagen Dazs and the like....
9. Chocolates. No more need to explain this. Chocolates are the best comfort food in the world from Cadbury - Royce.
What about you? What are your comfort foods? :-) Please share them to me so that I can try them!
