Life Begins At 25!

Well...that's what I keep telling myself. I just turned 25 a few days ago, and I already feel old. I don't remember things like I used to and I just feel older. Or maybe it's just me being dramatic. I think I'll be excited to turn 30, 35, 40...somehow 25 just doesn't seem as fabulous.

So I enjoyed a nice dinner at Nobu, where I ran into my favorite male artist of all time (well, of right now, let's be honest), Mr. John Mayer. Very polite and VERY TALL. I also received more flowers and cards then all past birthday's combined. It's always interesting to see what people really think of you, and I think your birthday shows you (I got tons of pale pink roses, jewelry, starbucks cards, broadway show tickets...). I'm just happy it's over. Too much attention for me.

Peace, love, and shopping!

P.S. I'm sorry to report I didn't survive the "HAPPY BIRTHDAY" song at Dave & Buster's on Saturday. Anyone who knows me knows that my greatest fear is a group of people I don't know breaking out in a birthday tune for me. It's weird, it's scary, but my parents did it anyway. Love ya Mom and Dad. ;-)

life begins at starbucks...

so after almost 24 hours of no caramel macchiatos, i have to say i miss the 'bucks in my blood right now. i've been thinking abt posting abt 'bucks for a while now. my addiction is so out of control! when i started to think abt all of the people, speaking engagements, industry invites, friends i make, etc that all comes from starbucks, it's a bit insane.

i can tell you who makes the best macchiatos in zurich (right in the town center near the train station on your way to the shopping center!), london, and toronto to name a few. i've also befriended barristas on both coasts (yes, i can walk into at least 5 locations where they know exactly what i want). i will say that you shouldn't depend on a good cup of 'bucks in london (they should stick to their fab teas) or paris (une cafe w/ a bit of cream and sugar is superb).

i think when i'm done running buzz, i'd like to retire and run a nice starbucks. that's my new dream.

peace, love, & shopping!
