Not a Journal

First of all, I did not forget about my wonderful readers, and I know, it's been a while... but here's the quick 3-minute recap of my last few months! After my almost viral (177 views!!!!) Tim Hortons blog which you should read (or reread) because it's just artistry level blogging, I let the fame and fortune go to my head... okay well actually, I got a job. If you follow me on any other platforms, I fell off the grid pretty much as soon as I began working, but I have a lot to fill you in on! After a long and stressful job hunt, I received a phone call from a consulting company. Fast forward a month and I'm having a great time working as an energy management consultant. Not to brag or anything, but my office view is pretty sweet, check it out! I also had a birthday during this mysterious, radio-silent time. I had said I'd write a blog then.... we'll just move past the fact that it's been almost 4 weeks since. My biggest news and I'm excited ...

As I sit here pretending to be a scriptwriter at a budget Starbucks  Tim Hortons, feeling slightly out of place, I write this review. This will be an attempt at a new series on my blog, since I've been dry with ideas since returning to Canada. Tim Hortons is a Canadian classic coffee shop turned fast food restaurant while still retaining its coffeeshop status. Apparently, it used to be excellent until they changed coffee beans, but that was before my coffee drinking days so I and most people around my age probably feel the same (we don't feel anything about the changed beans). It also used to be cheap, but since high-status coffee shops like the aforementioned Starbucks and Second Cup somehow get away with charging 10$ for a drink, the friendly neighborhood Canadian brand jacks prices to compete. At least it still has its loyal customers. Fun fact, the first Tim's restaurant was in my hometown of Hamilton! It's also the usual go-to spot for a quick bathroom brea...
