The 4 People You See At Starbucks

The 4 People You See At Starbucks

I will admit it...I've become a frequent Starbucks customer and study there too often. To be fair, there's free wi-fi, electric outlets hiding in the tables, the smell of coffee and productivity, and literally one on every other block. Everyone has been to a Starbucks, even if they don't like coffee, and if you actually stay there, there are four people who are guaranteed to be there.

1) The business professional

They're rocking business professor suit or skirt with a briefcase and usually a laptop. Mostly found with a partner and discussing the marketing sales of the last quarter. They make your online math homework seem silly.

2) The serious studier

Their venti drink is already empty by the time you get there. They're been zoned in on their work and there distractive phone is nowhere in site (brownie points, my friend). You almost wonder how they are getting so much done with all the noises, music, and people to pay attention to.

3) The reunion

Whether they're 12, 25, or 56, the reunion is two or more people sitting and just chatting. Their only productivity to accomplish is catching up. You often find yourself jealous of them, and eavesdropping on how their mutual friend Sarah is doing.

4) The high schoolers that had their moms drop them off

Solid move moms of the city! You watch them out of the corner of your eyes taking group selfies with their cups of "coffee" and spend more time picking a filter than doing the homework on their school laptops. Keep in mind though, they fought for a table with an outlet just to keep those laptops full of battery while running around and dancing.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
