I miss good coffee

Cilantro sells something they call coffee, but they are really lying to us.
Last week, I had alot of work to do, so I decided to come to the library a few hours before my class. I left my house in a hurry. I didn't have time to drink my coffee. So, I went to Cilantro to pick up a nice hot cup of coffee. You see, I've only had coffee from there once and I hated it. I usually get cold drinks, juice or even hot chocolate from them. This time I was desperate. I needed my morning coffee!
I asked for a vanilla-flavored latte. The guy was making it and then the other guy asked him if the vanilla-flavored latte is ready, he said oh, I forgot to put the flavour. So, he just added flavor to my coffee. Just like that!
Usually, they add flavor before adding the coffee and milk. This time, it was different. Worst than usual.
I so badly want to get a good cup of coffee on campus!

and yeah, don't even consider mentioning Cinnabon!

The Vote

I voted for Obama a few hours ago. No, I'm not an American citizen. In fact my vote didn't count. I voted on campus, my vote was part of an experiment on students attending American univerisites abroad.
Obama is my choice because he is different. Not racially, ok not only racially. He comes from a different background and his ideas are different than the republican presidents before him.
Obama is going to bring change or atleast he is going to open up the possibility of bring changing to America and the world.
Even though I want him to win, I'm really worried. He survived two assasination attempts, in Colorado and Tennessee. Part of me thinks of him as the next JFK, but JFK was assasinated. This thought doesn't help at all.

PS:- his Kenyan tribe, the Luo left Sudan hundreds of years ago to settle in present-day Kenya. Could we be related?
