Trance song of the week - Ultra DJ's - Me & U (Original)

Ultra DJ's - Me & U (Original)

This song is more of a Trance/Dance mix. The original is by far the best in my opinion. I can listen to this song over and over again for some strange reason. The woman sings about someone that she has fallen for and how they fight. Then she goes on to say that it was love at first sight and so on. They seem to fight a lot, but they can't settle for other people.

That's what I got from it at least. Regardless of the lyrics, it is a great song. I never listened to the lyrics the first few times I heard it, but I still loved it. I tend to prefer females singing in more of a low tone/pitch. The opening is great and doesn't play on for too long like some songs. The ending is okay. They could have done it better, but I don't know how. So I guess the outing wasn't that bad after re-thinking about it.


Here's a preview:

Le Petit Paris authentic French Bakery review plus story!

On Sunday, my girlfriend and I decided to help the economy a bit by going to Old Navy and using a 30% off coupon that I had. I got a few items and my girlfriend got something too. After that, we went to Bath & Body works because we had a coupon to try a "signature collection" item that they just came out with. It smelled okay, but it was free with a $10 purchase. So we got that and I got something that helps your room smell good. Kind of like one of those things you plug into the wall.

All those coupons made us hungry, so we decided to stop at a small French restaurant and we just ordered a little chicken dish for both of us to eat from. It cost us (really me, because I'm like all over here... :0P ) $8.00. The guy that tended us seemed like he was the owner and was very nice about splitting the one meal into two. I ordered a coke, which cost me $1.50 and my girlfriend ordered some tea which also cost $1.50, but came with refills. The coke was a 16.9 oz bottle, so it wasn't THAT bad... 
The chicken was VERY good and the spices were perfect. The n00dles were VERY good as well. It was actually a very good meal. The only bad part about it was the... Well.... Ice!!! The ice tasted like really bad freezer water ice. That was the only bad part about the meal. So i just drank my Coke out of the bottle instead...


Now for dessert!!!

Tiramisu!!! It was extremely good! It had all the right stuff! It tasted very fresh although I can not tell you when it was made. It did however taste great and I will get it again if I visit there again.

Starbucks Chai Tea Latte

My girlfriend suggested that I try the Chai Tea Latte and said that it was really good! As I was waiting in line, random white guy told me that it was really good too! So now I was like super-pumped!

I got it and it smelled good! I tasted the foam, and it didn't taste that great... I was like okay, that's just the foam! So I got to the drink and well... It isn't that great... It has these almost... Spicey tasting herbs... The milk in my opinion doesn't go great with it... I'd rather have the vanilla one.. Or just some good ol' hot chocolate with extra whipped cream! MMmmmmm....

Pros: Spicy-herby taste , smells good!
Cons: Too strong in my opinion, and it didn't taste THAT great with milk!

Starbucks Breakfast Blend coffee review

When I first started working my job, I wasn't big on drinking coffee. My job offers us Starbucks coffee for free, so I decided to drink a ttle bit a day. We get two choices; house blend and breakfast blend. House blend isn't all that great... its not that strong and the aroma isn't much of a "waker-upper". It took me some time to get adjusted to breakfast blend, but its pretty good now! I was never really a coffee drinker, but it does help me in those mornings where I don't feel like doing anything but sleeping!!! Sometimes I've noticed that it even helps me get through my sleepyness after lunch!

Now I only drink 1 cup a day 5 days a week unless I don't have to work. I was on vacation recently and I didn't have any coffee at all! So its just a work thing. Now about the coffee...

Breakfast Blend is a great wake-me-up coffee! It can be strong with less milk or just perfect with enough creamer and sugar. The aroma is wonderful and the smell alone is sure to wake you up a bit! The taste is great and easy to take down.

Pros: wake you up, keep you up, smells wonderful
Cons: keeps you up (can be bad)

Remember this is brewed by myself while I am at work. So this doesn't come straight from a starbuck employee. Haha...

Starbucks "London Fog Tea Latte" Review plus story!

So I got to work early today to find out that there was no more coffee. Starbucks coffee is provided for free by the company I work for, but since its the end of the month all of it is gone! We should have more by the 1st of the month. So everyone asked if I would go to starbucks and get them something from there. Being the nice guy that I am, I replied with "sure!" Starbucks is like 2 blocks from my job, which was a very short drive.

I got everybodies drinks which totaled to 5 and went back to work for the delivery!

The armoa from the London Fog Tea Latte is wondrus! I wish I could say the same for the taste. To me, it tastes like lemon with milk and water... ugh! It also has this cool feel/taste to it although it is a hot drink. Just like the Green Tea Latte, I will never drink it again.

Pros: smells great, soothes throat a little, okay for a cold day

Cons: tastes almost like sour milk

Starbucks hot Green Tea Latte

Well last night I had a hot Green Tea Latte for the first time and let me tell you... ugh! Maybe... just maybe it was too green for me! Haha.. The foam on the top was BAD! Usually I love the foam. I drank a little more than half of my venti drink and ended up throwing it away. Usually I can at least tolerate it and finish it, but I couldn't even do that this time! I will never get it again! I've never tasted anything that derived from Green tea that I didn't like!

I will be posting more of their drinks as I taste them. I have a personal friend that works there and will ask for some suggestions.

If you personally want me to try anything, just leave a comment and I will try it and write a review about it! Thanks!
