JCW - Java City Worker

JCC - Java City Customer



JCW: Hi what can I get you?

(OHGOD I HAVE A 1500 WORD PAPER DUE AT MIDNIGHT

AND I HAVEN’T EVEN STARTED IT.

BUT DON’T LET IT SHOW BECAUSE FAY WILL

BE DISAPPOINTED)

*keeps smiling*

JCC: Can I get a Cookies & Cream Javalanche?

JCW: Sure! (Did he just say it like Javalanch-AYE instead of like an avalanche? What are you,

some kind of bougie cookie coffee connoisseur? I’m judging you.)

Vanilla or coffee base? (Please say coffee.)

JCC: Vanilla.

JCW: (Great.) Do you want whipped cream? (Please say no.)

JCC: Yes.

JCW: (Awesome.) Anything else for you?

JCC: Ummmm... *looks at bakery case*

JCW: (Really? As if you haven’t been in line waiting for 10 minutes and you just now

look at the bakery case?) **rolling eyes emoji**

JCC: Can I get a cookie?

JCW: Yeah! Anything else(Please be done.)

JCC: That should be it. *hands ID*

JCW: $5.86 is your total.

JCC: Hey, I kind of know you. Can I get it for free?

JCW: (We had one class together freshman year to which you asked me for the

homework over dm and never acknowledged my existence after that. HELL

NO.) *fake laugh* Us workers don’t even get stuff for free!

*scans card and waits for what feels like hours

for the computer to calculate to the simple task

of RINGING UP AN ORDER*

*finally done*

Here you go.

JCC: Thanks.

Fay: *comes out of nowhere and starts order*

JCC: So have you guys been super busy today?

JCW: (Can he not see I have a line of about 134857395 people after him?)

Yeah, it’s all in the morning though; it’s pretty quiet after lunch.

*smoothly takes next order with him standing next to the register

because he apparently doesn’t know how the Java City line works*

JCC: Gotcha. Hey could you add a little extra Oreos in that Javalanche?

JCW: (I was going to..but just because you asked, NO.)

Let me see what I can do.

*politely/snarkily laughs*

(What should I eat for lunch? One of those biscuit breakfast sandwiches

sounds kinda good.)

JCC: Did she use the vanilla base?

JCW: (Did he really just ask if Fay messed up his order? Fay is to Java City what

Adele did to music on the radio: made it better.)

She made it right. I watched her.

(Dick.)

Fay: Cookies and cream Javalanche!

JCC: Thanks!

JCW: Have a good day!

(Please don't come back tomorrow.)

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
