First shift of the week is normally tiring and boring day for me. You have to hire someone to pull me out of bed just to start prepping up for work. Working in BPO is very stressful that you’ll look wasted even if you’ve just arrived at work. But to my surprise last night is just not any other night.

It was already 10PM when I reached for my phone to check if there are any messages or calls that I missed when I was sleeping. I haven’t checked my phone the entire day so I shouldn’t be surprised if I’ve got 6 messages that I wasn’t able to read.

Two messages were forwarded by Orville, One from Japoks reminding me about his iPod, two from Globe and one from Cathy. When I read the last message from Cathy, it just made me jump out of the bed and head straight to take a shower.

I remember the last time I did that is when I was still in highschool wherein I end up with severe joint pain after hurriedly running down the stairs with a pair of roller skates on my feet. That made my arm dislocated for a while. However, this time I made sure that I won’t get into any accident and move as fast and careful as I can just to be in the office right away.

As soon as I’ve reached my workstation, my Top Pot Doughnuts are already waiting for me! Monday is Manic for Starbucks this month as they’ve brought those hand forged doughnut from Seattle here in the Philippines!

Got Old Fashioned Original Glaze and Chocolate Old Fashioned cake.

For others, Motivation is the key to success. For me, Americano is the key to sleepless years!

And since I’ve got a coupon to be the lucky person to taste the new Espresso Java Chip Frap… I surrender my stub and claim my first trip to heaven! YUM-Oh! I tell you! Those whipped cream is to die for!

Starbucks is campaigning for Clean and Green Philippines… I, on the other hand is campaigning for more transfers with my money tree (courtesy of sir rex)!

Lo and Behold Starbucks Addicts… Nothing beats your Manic Monday by getting a cup of Hot Starbucks Coffee and a piece of Top Pot Doughnut from Seattle, Washington!

You heard me right. There’s no need for us to fly thousands of miles just to have a taste of this hand-forged doughnut. Starbucks is bringing these yummy pastries here in the Philippines!

Top Pot is a family owned business started by Mark and Michael Klebeck in a small brick storefront on north Capitol Hill in Seattle last 2002. They were handpicked by Starbucks in 2005 to carry the doughnut line in their stores. And for four consecutive Mondays, Starbucks Philippines will showcase 3 variants of their doughnut line: Glazed Old Fashion, Chocolate Old Fashion and Apple Fritters.
