It has been a very long time since me and my friend Camz didn't see our friend Mico for the reason that he is away from us for his studies. We are in the same year in college, but we are in different schools. We have seen each other at the recognition rights of my niece in the institution in which we graduated in junior high school. Camille asked us, "what if we go to a coffee shop?", then we also responded "sure" as it will be our first coffee date together.
Then we went to the nearest coffee shop that is located near the school. The Yoki coffee and waffles. Just like the other coffee shops, they sell different flavors of coffee.Actually they serve hot and iced coffee, for the hot coffee they have barako excelsa and sagada arabica, what's good is that they have a short description with both flavors of the coffee, in which customers would be convinced to buy those.
About the barako excelsa it states that, have a distinctive flavor profile reminding a tart or a ripened fruit.Its aroma is more prominent than its taste. Excelsa enhances the middle and back palate and lingering finish of the coffee, giving the cup more substance and power. While about the sagada arabica it states in its description that, probably one of the most popular coffee beans in the Philippines. This roast strikes the perfect balance between fruity, sweet, and nutty. Its clean taste makes it a favorite go-to specialty coffee for coffee lovers.
They also have other coffees in the menu, they have their iced coffee which are the..
•house blend iced coffee
•iced black coffee
•signature iced coffee
•spanish latte
•dirty matcha latte
•caramel macchiato

These are all affordable yet classy and yummy coffees you would need to taste, but they don't just have coffees, they also sell non-coffee, which are the gourmet iced chocolate, fresh lemonade, and aqua mineral water. See, if you don't want a coffee they have iced chocolate and fresh lemonade that would be for you, and of course not only that, as I have mentioned that it is a coffee and waffles, of course they sell waffles, they have different flavors of waffles.

All of these coffee and waffles, as I have said, are all affordable and delicious. In this coffee shop the owner is a kind person, she is the one who makes the coffee and the waffles, and also the one who serves it to the customer, with a matching picture taking. The place is really clean, the color of the place is good for the eyes, and also they have a place in their coffee shop in which if other people don't want to have their coffee outside, they can stay inside of the shop, but if other people wants to stay outside while having their coffee they have their "sunroom" that is a nice place to have a coffee. They are open every Monday, Thursday, Friday, and Saturday at 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM.
My friends and I wanted to stay outside, it was already 5 PM in the afternoon, but still we wanted to have a coffee as I've said that it has been a long time that we did not see our male friend. We ordered house blend iced coffee, it was just a short coffee time with them. We talked about how our second-year in college went, we felt happy, sad, and of course what do we expect from draining situations during a lot of tasks to be done, and a tiring exam week.
One of my friends, Camz, took a course of civil engineering. She talks about how hard it is to study in the field of engineering, she also tells us "just finish your bachelor's degree and graduate, because me, I do not know if I graduate on time". We laugh at her joke, but she tells us "guys I'm serious, engineering is really hard and it's draining me", our friend Camz was our salutatorian when we are in elementary and also in junior high school, she is really a smart woman that's the reason why we think she's just joking around. Mico and I comforted her, telling her that everything will be fine, don't give up easily, and she can do it, that's what are friends really for, comforting each other over the chaos that surrounds us, after that we tells a lot of joke so that we won't remember what are the problems that we have in ourselves. We laugh at each other's jokes until our tears fall down.
It is really a wonderful moment, in which we can have fun, we can laugh and we can forget all the problems that we have. Having a friend that you can talk to about everything is one of the best reasons why we need to have one, it's the quality of friends not the quantity.
College life is really draining, but it's up to us if how we are going to handle or manage the path that we chose. It is better to make your life suffer to have knowledge about the different things than sitting in the chair doing nothing that wouldn't help you anyway.
A lot of things that may come to our way while we are trying to fight the things that stumble our way, but being strong and brave, and having the faith can let us win. Having a coffee is also one of the best things that I have in my life, in which I become more energetic and happy to start my day while drinking a cup of coffee, but also having a coffee with friends will always make a perfect blend!
