Why Dunkin Donuts Is Better Than Starbucks
The Odyssey

The age-old debate: Starbucks or Dunkin Donuts? Some argue that Starbucks is better, but they are wrong. Nothing can beat the beauty that is Dunkin Donuts, and here's why:

1. They Have Donuts

Need I say more? Unlike Starbucks, Dunkin offers a multitude of delicious donuts. From glazed, to chocolate, to season flavors like pumpkin or peppermint, Dunkin has it all. Coffee and donuts were meant to be together, so this already launches Dunkin up to superstardom.

2. It's Way Cheaper

A cup of coffee shouldn't clear out your wallet. Starbucks charges a hefty price for the coffee itself, and then if you want any flavoring or extras, the bill adds up quickly. On the other hand, Dunkin doesn't charge you for any extra flavor shots or toppings-- so go ahead, order that extra caramel everyone knows you want. Also, it offers happy hour throughout most of the year, so you can get an iced coffee for only 99 cents. Starbucks needs to step it up, honestly.

3. They Give Away Stuff All. The. Time.


Dunkin just loves to give away free coffee, and what can be better than that? National Coffee Day? You get a free coffee. National Donut Day? You guessed it, free donuts. During most sports playoff seasons, if your home-team wins, you can get a free coffee. The list goes on and on. How often does Starbucks give away free things?

That's what I thought.

4. It Just Tastes Better

This is a personal preference, but Dunkin does taste better. There are numerous more ways to customize your drink, and they offer specialty coffees like lattes, macchiatos, and mochas-- just like Starbucks. They just happen to do it, well, better.

So save yourself the time and money and head over to Dunkin next time you're craving a coffee instead of Starbucks. Your tastebuds will thank you.

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.
