English, Starbucks and HOME?

Updated: Nov 23

20th, November 2024


Hi everyone, welcome back to my second blog. I hope you'are all doing well ! Have you been waiting or looking forward to read my second blog? I hope all your waiting is worthy.


If you look at my title, are you wondering why I choose this title? why is that? is there any connection between english, starbucks and HOME? ><


Now I am gonna continue the story


I always remember how excited I was when I went to starbucks with my sister as a child, I think when I was around 6 or 7 years old, probably you are a bit familiar with that when I mention the number cos I have mentioned that in my first blog. I think starbucks was always a big thing in my country, I remember how everyone got excited when starbucks first came to China, since Starbucks is the 'only' coffee brand that survived and doing well for a very long time in China. Well, I am sure there are also other coffee brands exsit in China and I am pretty sure they are all not that bad. Ok, since I have mentioned China, I feel like probably it would be a good idea to introduce a bit more about my background. I was born and grew up in China until I was 18, and I went to south-korea since I was 19, I have achieved my balchelor of tourism at Hanyang University in seoul, and after that I went to the Netherlands for my master degree, that is international hospitality, I have spent 5 years living, studying and working in the Netherlands, and the time I have spent there was great !


Ok, now we are getting back to the title thing, why I choose this title ? why is that? Sounds interesting right? haha. Well, the truth is I started learning and speaking english at school since I was 6 years old. If you ask me 'What is my favorite subject?' My answer would always be english, back in the day and now. Cos I always feel like english is the most beautiful language in my opinion, everytime when I speak english, it just something that makes me feel good about myself. 🤍 I guess everyone has their own preference and right to choose what language they like to speak haha. I think nothing better than having the right to choose what you like to do in your life, such as, what language you want to speak, or what job you want to do, or where you would love to live, and so on...What I have found out the most beautiful thing is when I speak english, I feel myself, I feel my body, my soul, my heart, I feel my whole body starts getting lighter, and lighter. it makes me feels like lying in a hot tub, it relaxs me and stretchs all my stiff muscles, sounds beautiful, isnt it? >< haha


Oh yeh, we were talking about Starbucks ha, sorry I lost my train of thoughts... Oh yeh I am a big fan of starbucks for sure, like always, since I was a kid and now. I always like order quite similar stuff everythime when I go to starbucks, which is a cup of coffee, a piece of cookie or a muffin, that depends on how I feel everytime (I am not a big fan of cake tbh, sorry for the cake lover haha). I think it just the feeling, you know, it feels like when you go somewhere quite a lot, or when you have done something everyday at your earlier age, you started having that as a habit, habit makes you feel nice, makes you feel safe, and makes you feel that is something special and unique for yourself. I feel like there is nothing better than having a cup of hot chocolate in a cold dark winter, everything around you is not that important, and you are just sit there, enjoy your cup of hot chocolate, that definitely would be something I really enjoy to do. >< 🤍


HOME is a feeling in my eyes, it's something that makes me feel good about myself. I call starbucks HOME, I call it's HOME everytime when I speak english cos the feeling makes me feel loved, and it makes me feel good about myself.


Love ya🤍, stay curious, stay positive, enjoy yourself, see you next time.


Cheers
