Coffee can be considered a drug, and is a common form of both a wake-up, and pick-me-up. Weather you're a college student, or a working adult, there has to have been one time in your life you thanked everything holy for coffee. From Starbucks, to Dunkin, to the at-home coffee machines, coffee has always been a helping hand and important factor to your day.
1. The first sip is always the best
Doesn't matter what time of day, season or event: the best sip of coffee is the first sip of coffee you take.
2. Social events
I can't count the amount of times my friends and I have met at our local Starbucks for coffee to catch up, or the amount of times my college friends and I skipped out on lunch to find a local coffee shop.
3. When it's cold outside
Walking down the streets of NYC in the middle of January to see a show is much more bearable with a coffee in hand. It keeps my hands warm and eventually, warms me up completely.
4. Some of us enjoy being 'basic'
It's fall, so I'm obviously drinking a PSL along with 95% of the world. It's the middle of the summer? Cool- I'm probably still drinking a hot beverage.
5. Wake-up call
I would never make it to work on-time without coffee. I blame my college years for that. Coffee is basically part of my blood. It's what kicks my ass into gear on a daily basis.
6. All-nighters
Working an over-night shift or studying until the sun comes up is impossible without caffeine.
7. Pick-me up's
There are days where we just feel...not ourselves. For me, rainy windy, gloomy days are the worst. Something about a frappe makes me feel much better.
8. Holidays
Holiday flavored coffees are the best. There's always something new and exciting in "coffee world" come the holiday season in every coffee shop. You can even buy holiday flavored creamer in the stores.
9. It's seemingly endless
Anytime I go to a diner, my coffee cup is never empty. The busboys, waiters and waitresses deserve metals for never allowing my coffee cup to be empty. Keep it coming!
10. So many options
If you're a coffee lover, I'm sure you have a favorite coffee shop and are team Dunkin' or team Starbucks. There seems to be so many different places to buy a cup of coffee, and so many different flavor options as well. Coffee shops are very common and a perfect spot to relax.
