the coffee bean that would change history
July 23, 2007 by iris89
if you were a fruit, a vegetable or any kind of food, what would you be?
have something in mind already?
fine, let’s narrow down the choices. you can either be a carrot, an egg or a coffee bean.
ok… now let’s say, the chief cook decides to, well, cook. he then puts you in a big pot of boiling water. what would then happen to you?!…
here’s what iv’e learned.
if we’re all carrots for the rest of our lives, we would easily get all soggy and soft with whatever difficulties would come our way.. we would be seared, bruised, mashed, pureed, and sadly, no one would want us then… i mean, who likes soggy carrots for dinner right? (sorry kat =P)
now, if we would all be eggs… we would appear the same- unfazed and unaffacted, after a dip in the boiling water. but on the inside, we’re all hard, firm and tough. that’s good right? well, not really… what if that boiling water turned out to be a fight with your mum, or a very horrible midterm grade? we would become bitter, unwilling to forgive, and out for revenge to those who caused us shame and pain. basically, it’s worst than being a carrot.
so what about if we were all coffee beans? in the first two, the boiling water changed how these foods are made of. but in this case, it’s the coffee bean that would affect the water. the water would turn dark, aromatic and would even be quite delicious…yum
it’s just like being in college… it’s either we enjoy or endure it…some people have taken advantage of the fun side.. the independence, the freedom, the late night booze sessions and basically every wild thing that teenagers are expected to be doing..but some stay for their last four years in school just because they have to… and that’s why they endure doing something they don’t really want to do..
i’ve been a carrot during the last three years…and sometimes im a hard boiled egg.. but now, am working my way towards becoming the coffee bean that would change history
so bring it on level IV!
p.s.
my point is this: ayaw pag nursing sa silliman!waaaaaaaa!
so you made silliman murky and bitter but yum?
didnt u say u felt lyk a cookie?
