Coffee History
Coffee was at first not well received. In 1511, it was forbidden for its stimulating effect by conservative, orthodox imams at a theological court in Mecca. However, the popularity of the drink - particularly among the greek population and the intellectuals - led these bans to be overturned in 1524 by an order of the Ottoman Turkish Sultan Selim I. In Cairo, Egypt, a similar ban was instituted in 1532, and the coffeehouses and warehouses containing coffee beans were sacked.
From the Muslim world, coffee spread to Europe, where it became popular during the seventeenth century. The Dutch were the first to start the large scale importation of coffee into Europe. In 1538, Léonard Rauwolf, a German physician, having returned from a ten-year trip to the Near East, gave this description of coffee:
When coffee reached the American colonies, it was initially not as successful as it had been in Europe, as colonists found it a poor substitute for alcohol. However, during the Revolutionary War, the demand for coffee increased to such an extent that dealers had to hoard their scarce supplies of it and raise prices dramatically; part of this is due to the reduced availability of tea from British merchants. Americans' taste for coffee grew during the early nineteenth century, following the War of 1812, which had temporarily cut off access to tea imports, and high demand during the American Civil War as well as many advancements in brewing technology cemented the position of coffee as an everyday commodity in America.

In Love?!
Monday, August 21, 2006
Unbelievable
Always said I would know where to find love,
Always thought I'd be ready and strong enough,
But some times I just felt I could give up.
But you came and changed my whole world now,
I'm somewhere I've never been before.
Now I see, what love means.
It's so unbelievable,
And I don't want to let it go,
Something so beautiful,
Flowing down like a waterfall.
I feel like you've always been,
Forever a part of me.
And it's so unbelievable to finally be in love,
Somewhere I'd never thought I'd be.
In my heart, in my head, it's so clear now,
Hold my hand you've got nothing to fear now,
I was lost and you've rescued me some how-.
I'm alive, I'm in love you complete me,
And I've never been here before.
Now I see, what love means.
When I think of what I have,
and this chance I nearly lost,
I cant help but break down, and cry.
Ohh yeah, break down and cry.
Now I see, what love means

- Yong Keng-in Melacca since exam coming either.......
then fine!!make up my mind...go alone but suddenly Yong Keng told me that Chang went hospital 2 days before. What happened? something like swelling in some parts of his body...then rushing melacca came to mind and there will be great as in a sweet roomate try to be nice=) Fine dressed up immediately and told mom not going to have lunch home today. Bus come as alternative choose since i don have car that moment, hate to drive and don't actually know where the hell is melacca if driving alone=) then the one day trip started (thought it was) then got ticket and moving....
On the way, start calling for help and hoped desperately that someone will take me to that hospital. Unfortunately, no one did free by that time....hehehe...fine and advanture start=) finally i made my way there with an empty stomach and remember that i haven't took anything besides a little bit of carrot cake. Called Tiong for lunch by 30 minutes passed 3pm...then great meal in Sushi King and took me rm20 (quite satisfied with that) and then time to visit=) it was 5pm by then so most likely i couldn't make my way back johor.
Calling.......
Me : hello mom, i afraid that i couldn't get home by today since i reached melacca quite late...........blah blah blah.........
Mom: ok....but got any place for you to hang out the whole nite?
Me : sure (the only plan i got is just to stay in hospital....hehehehe). Probably my other friend have a king size for a nite (lying).
Mom: ok but don't hang out middle of nite.
Me: ok....and remember to keep some of the stuff u cooked for me( hehehe....a way to make my mom happy always).
Then besides visiting Chang, i also show my present to uncle opposite Chang's bed=) hehehe...gossip with stranger as usual....
