The morning without end

My day starts by having a chocolate croissant and a cup of coffee. In my university day's in Japan, the pattern was almost the same, a chocolate bun, calorie mate, and canned coffee. The habit of mine is basically that once I love something I tend to patiently continue. These days, as I enter the bakery, every salespersons, an old lady and other middle-aged women, can give me a chocolate croissant before saying my order. Just they say, a choco? as usual.
My colleague Alessi, an Italian guy, sometimes lectures me on Italian coffee, espresso. For him, espresso or coffee here is not true coffee, it's just diluted water. So, he strongly recommends me to drink espresso, hopefully, Italian style espresso..
