gotta at least start off blogging, right?
i’ve decided to start another 365. this is gonna be a big year, so it would be nice to document, i need something to make me be more creative on a daily basis and it’s nice to have a body of work to look back over and see stylistic changes as well. as with anything, practice makes you quicker and better.
starbucks offered a special deal for one of their 12 days of merry–purchase a tumbler for $20 and receive free coffee for the month of january. in need of a new tumbler, i considered myself for a candidate for this promotion. i liked the construction of the tumbler and since i don’t have any more morning classes to be late for, i opted to shell out the funds. three days in and i’ve received my free coffee each day. it’s great–and a great idea for starbucks because they probably don’t lose that much money on brewed coffee (not to mention i bet a lot of people purchased the tumbler and won’t actually use it much). i’m sure starbucks knows what they’re doing–i probably think about it more than most and i’ll probably get super used to going each day before work, so i’ll want to continue even after my coffee isn’t free anymore.
