Dear Dunkin',

It doesn't take much to cause a young college girl to fall in love.

You never know when you’ll come across that special someone with everything you need and more. Someone new, with the look. The taste. The refreshing burst of energy.

That’s all it took for me to fall in love with you, Dunkin’. You made falling in love so easy.

One sip and one bite was all it took.

“A large caramel iced coffee with light ice, light sugar, cream, and an extra pump of caramel, and a sprinkled strawberry donut” was all I said, and the rest is history.

You’re someone I can always count on, Dunkin’. With your hours starting before the sun even shines and ending long after it sets, you always make yourself available, which is good for a clingy girl like me. It’s hard to not be addicted to something like you. I’m being serious when I say that I can easily spend all of my money on you, but I like spending money on the people (or things) that I love.

You make me look forward to every day. When going to bed at night, I can’t help but always think about you. I lay in bed and imagine how amazing that warm donut and cold coffee will be. I’ll always make time to get you before class to start my day. In fact, I always plan my schedule around you.

I feel like I’m in a struggling long-distance relationship when it’s the middle of the day and I don’t have you in my hand.

You understand my broke college student lifestyle. I’m willing to pay full price for my large iced coffee in the morning, because, let’s be honest, I get a little desperate for the caffeine. But you never fail me with your happy hour.

Pulling up in the drive thru between 3 to 6 p.m. is the happiest you will see me all day. It’s like you know I’m constantly staying up later than I need to be, but hey, I’ll take it, for only a dollar.

YEAH, A FREAKIN’ DOLLAR.

Discovering coffee was one of the best things to happen to me, but discovering Dunkin’ changed my life forever.

You’re my morning wake up call and my 5 p.m. motivation. I can see us having a bright future together, because I can’t see myself functioning without you.

Love Always,

Kelly
