Everyone needs a cup of warmth!

I woke up this morning craving for a good cup of yummy warm hot chocolate. I don't deny it, Hot Chocolate's my favourite drink! It makes me feel better when I'm really cold. Makes me smile on a lazy day. It makes me happier when I'm already happy. You see, I love my chocolates and when I down a cup of really really good hot chocolate, my heart swells and I feel all nice, warm and fuzzy inside me. I know it's weird, but that's me and my love for my chocolaty friend!

You know, just the other day I was making my way to the post office. Clad in my ugly weather-water-proof shoes, mismatched socks and huge ugly jacket, I wanted to quickly make my way there, post out some letter and return home. Oh the dreadful weather on that day! It started to drizzle and the wind was blowing endlessly at my face. It Was so so super cold! When I reached the post office, the queue was just too long and there was simply no space left to stand and wait. So I decided to head over the cafe somewhat across the street to get myself a nice piping hot cup of Hot Chocolate. You know, I reached, all cold and trembling, ordered a takeaway cup, and guess what. I found out I had not a single cent on me! ( I lent a good friend $20 the night before and forgot all about it! ) Gosh. So I asked if the cafe takes eftpos, I know, really silly. And they don't. And I told the cute counter guy I forgot my cash and it's ok, so sorry but I had to cancel my order. And guess what?

He gave me the cup for free! I guess he knew I was freezing and really needed something to warm myself up. Such a nice guy! And even though the Hot chocolate tasted pretty average, it was by far one of the nicest cup I had to date. Because of his act of kindness. The world needs more people like him!

Thank you really kind cafe guy!
