I have a few things to say!

Chh.
Number Three:
I am hoping that this lady will make the ring I want for my 21st. It is basically like the one here, but with a different quote engraved, and with little stones (I have not decided what yet) set into the gaps made by the letter 'o'.
It is not at all what I thought I wanted when I first started looking into having a ring made, but having seen it, now I think it is perfect!
Number Four:
While I was eating my tea tonight I watched a very pretentious show about 'culture'. The presenter was a chubby man with a very strange hair-do, which was upsetting while I was eating, but they did show basically the whole of a short film called 'Non Fat' which made me laugh for about five consecutive minutes, and then do that thing where you remember something funny later, out of context, and laugh again.
I think it will only really strike a chord if you have ever worked as a barrista. Over the summer I began to wonder if the people asking me for 'skinny lattes' actually knew what they were asking for or whether it was just something they had heard on Sex and the City, because whenever I told that person "Sorry, but we only serve semi-skimmed milk', they would stare at me like they didn't quite understand how this would prevent me from making the exact drink they had ordered.
I understand that sometimes ordering coffee can be confusing but for god's sake if you genuinely have no idea what the difference is between a cappucino and a flat white, just ask! Any barrista worth the name will be able to explain it in less than twenty words (and if they can't, you don't want them making your coffee). If you order something complicated just because you think it makes you sound like a New York hipster but don't actually have any clue what goes into it, your barrista - she will know. She might even make little tiny changes, just to see if you notice. And when you don't: she will laugh.
And finally, Number Five.
