Orange Cafe and apple strudel

There’s a little café near UO campus owned by a Mexican family, called Café Roma. Because the interior walls are painted with different kinds of orange color (just like in Van Gogh’s painting ‘night café’), I like to call it orange café. I love the apple strudel they make. The sweetness of the strudel always makes me happier and less stressed. It’s one of those magic foods that help CiCi to survive from the busy schoolwork.

I had an hour break after my building construction class, between 10 to 11 today. So I decided to stop by the orange café to do some reading. I haven’t been there for the entire summer. A lot of things have been changed. They hired more people, made more kinds of dessert and changed all the artwork on the wall. It made me feel like I’ve been away for a long time.

As usual, I bought an apple strudel and a latte. My favorite spot in the café was right there waiting for me. Oh… lots of memories there… chatting with my friends on Friday afternoons, doing my sketches, reading…and most sweetly, I met my close someone there for the first time (and I had an apple strudel and a cup of latte with me that time…hhaa…always the same food). Anyways, I found my spot and started to read a book called ‘Great Street’ while listening to a CD that’s specially made for me. I enjoyed ‘restarting’ my day like that. Probably it’s the reason why I’m so efficient with my homework today. Jia You!

I can be happy easily just because of small things, such as an apple strudel. Sometimes, you can see me running and jumping around, giggling. My close someone says I’m such a silly little girl. I think the “silliness” helps me to enjoy my life everyday. I know there’re lots of challenges waiting for me ahead. So… keep smiling and move on ^^.
