You can learn a lot about someone over a cup of coffee, but have you ever thought about what the coffee drink says about the drinker? Being a barista and a college student, my days are constantly filled with caffeine or serving caffeine.

Now I'm not a psychologist, and I don't go around profiling people on everything they drink (that would be crazy!), but after awhile, you come to some fast conclusions about people based on their order.

Studies have been done on this hypothesis with intriguing results, but I'm not here to bore you or myself with the experiments and statistics (I'm a writer, not a scientist). Without further ado, here's what your coffee drink says about you, from a barista herself.

1. BLACK COFFEE DRINKER

You're a simple person; a minimalist! You're quiet, yet straightforward with what you want. You need no other suggestions, as even bringing up the word latte or cappuccino makes you weary. Cream? No thank you! Cream is for the weak, and those who take their coffee with it are the first one's out in the inescapable zombie apocalypse.

2. Espresso

You're confident and headstrong! You know what you want and how to get it! You're also always on the go, no time for a whole cup of coffee, you just need a quick caffeine fix! A workaholic perhaps? You're phone is glued to your hand where you answer quick emails, and maybe take some phone calls. You may be the only ones who can overthrow black coffee drinkers in brutal strength.

3. Latte

You're indecisive with all the espresso options, so you like to remain safe with a simple latte. You're either a people person who doesn't mind small talk, and in fact can be chatty (not necessarily a bad thing), or like your black coffee counterparts, you're straightforward and simple. An extra shot or a flavor is as crazy as you get, and you're just fine with that!

4. Frappuccino/Frappe

Are you a basic white girl? JUST KIDDING! Putting that stereotype aside, you are a little bit reckless. Now not the reckless as in you have no direction in your life and you're just gonna take it out on frappuccinos and alcohol, but maybe you don't make the best healthy choices for yourself...which let's be honest is completely relatable. You're a fun loving, free spirit who likes things super sweet! Or maybe...you're a kid who is barely just getting into the caffeinated side of the world. Take it easy, kid!

5. Decaf

I mean, I think the picture is pretty self-explanatory of my opinion on decaf. You might as well be drinking AIR! You're a homebody and don't get out a lot, do you? You double, sometimes triple check that your coffee is decaf. A little paranoid maybe? You have a set bedtime every night that is KEY and cannot risk messing it up. As someone who gets less than 6 hours of sleep a night, I applaud you, but live a little! Try 1/2 decaf next time! If it's for health reasons, however, stick to the air! It may not be my cup of tea, but its still coffee!


Well, there you have it: the five most common coffee drinks I can think of and what my opinion is on the people who order them! We could have gotten more in-depth with drinks, but that would be getting way too specific, and this article would be pages long! Where do you think you fall on the scale of caffeine?

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.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.

Top 10 Reasons My School Rocks!

Why I Chose a Small School Over a Big University.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
