5 Signs That You're Obsessed With Dutch Bros. Coffee
Arizona Coffee

The Dutch Bros. Coffee Company was first established in Oregon, but it has made a huge following in numerous stores located in the sunny state of Arizona. In fact if there was a survey conducted among Arizonians whether they prefer Dutch Bros. or Starbucks, most will definitely say Dutch Bros. Now what makes Dutch Bros. more appealing as a private coffee chain than one of the world's biggest coffee empires? Is it the energetic baristas blasting pop music in their work station that gives customers a mood boost? The stamp cards that creates loyal customers, giving the incentive of a free drink? Or could it be the variety of drinks that expands through the simple menu? Whatever it may be for those in the "Dutch Mafia" or fans of the coffee chain, shows a huge following for college students in Arizona, which adds to the caffeine addiction.

So here are the signs that you might be obsessed with Dutch Bros!

Sign #1 : Weekly caffeine trips

Whether it is located nearby your college campus or it's a road trip to the nearest blue stop, you and your group of friends will plan out a day and time for your weekly caffeine fix. For me, it seemed that my friends and I go to Dutch Bros. every week, I'm convinced that a few more trips and the barista will remember our orders by memory.

Sign #2 : "I never had Dutch Bros. before" equals spontaneous coffee runs.

Anyone that has been a loyal customer of Dutch Bros. will have that same exact face whenever a friend or colleague mentions never having any Dutch goodness. Immediately everyone will go to the car and drive to the nearby coffee drive-in or walk-in just so someone's first experience with Dutch Bros. can be witnessed by multiple people. Based on a personal experience, most "Dutch Mafia" members are made through friends and recommendations.

Sign #3 : You always have your stamp card in your wallet!

As for me personally, I have my Dutch Bros. stamp card IN FRONT of my I.D., just so it is out and ready to be one more away for a free drink. These stamp cards are a clever marketing strategy that just adds to the quality of the drinks Dutch offers. Be on the lookout on social media for special days where you can get 9 stamps!

Sign #4 : You've ordered off the secret menu multiple times!

While ordering from the secret menu can be nerve racking in other places, the baristas at Dutch Bros. are cool about it whenever you order from the secret menu. In fact every month Dutch Bros will have four featured drinks that are secret menu items that anyone can order! My recommendation, the Ocean Water rebel, it's like a blue raspberry Jolly Rancher you can drink!

Sign #5: You love taking photos of your drink!

I call this piece of mine "The Super Mario Brothers"

You know that Dutch Bros. appeals to the average college student when the company is highly active on social media through Twitter, Instagram, and Facebook. In fact the Arizona Dutch Bros. locations love playing scavenger hunts through Instagram where anyone can find and win Dutch Bros. items! There's just this visual appeal of showing off that simple plastic cup on a hot summer's day. It's either that or that you just want to show that you're obsessed with Dutch Bros. coffee.


Now if you show at least one of these signs, it means that you have an obsession with Dutch Bros. This may be a personal bias, but if one must be obsessed with caffeine, make sure it is from Dutch Bros. Coffee.

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.
