You can tell a lot about a person by how they consume their caffeine. I'd say that your Starbucks order is a better indicator of your personality than a lot of things. Astrology? Never heard of it.

Your behaviors and actions can be determined based solely on your addiction to caramel drizzle and your aversion to the weird freeze-dried berries in refreshers. Read on to learn my predictions about you based on your favorite coffee!

A Pink Drink

@gppark1221

You're probably between the ages of 15 and 22. You're pretty good at makeup and can serve up some mad looks from the considerable amount of time you've sunk into watching James Charles.

You love the beach and you post on Instagram daily.

You're definitely a college student and you're so chill. You're pretty easy to please and enjoy the simpler things in life. You have a gorgeous laugh and you're literally so sweet to everyone.

You've probably worked in customer service before and you know what it's like, so you're everyone's favorite customer.

You're a 60-year-old man. You probably yell a little too loudly at the speaker in the drive-through. That is all. That's all I've got for this one.

You're adventurous. You like trying new things, and climbing a mountain or scuba diving is probably on your bucket list if you haven't done those things already.

You've got big dreams and a busy schedule, and your cold brew is a sweet little addition to your routine.

You're usually scared to try new things, but you liked the caramel macchiato so you figured this would be a safe bet.

Now this is your regular drink because it makes you feel fancy.

Pumpkin Spice Latte

You seriously love autumn and this is one of the highlights of your year. You can't get enough of spooky season, flannels, Halloween, and crunchy fallen leaves. You love baking cookies and you probably share them with everyone.

Caramel Ribbon Crunch Frappuccino

This is probably your mom's drink. She saw it on the promo menu when you brought her with you. She panicked because she didn't know what to order, and she's stuck with it ever since.

Nitro Cold Brew With Sweet Cream

You're a master of procrastination and you're always so tired but you're getting that degree! You're getting that homework done at 3AM!

You don't acknowledge the existence of sleep. Who needs sleep when you have nitro?

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.

Whether you met your new love interest online, through mutual friends, or another way entirely, you'll definitely want to know what you're getting into.

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.
