Sorry, not sorry.

Dunkin' Donuts Is Much Better Than Starbucks

When I started my sophomore year of high school I couldn't go to school unless I finished my small caramel iced coffee, with cream and sugar. Now I'm almost in my senior year of college and it still would be a struggle to make it through my days without my, now medium, iced coffee! I'm also so lucky to have a Dunkin' super close to my house that if I really need my double dose, I can always swing by for seconds. If you love coffee as much as me, chances are you have been to both Dunkin' Donuts and Starbucks. In my opinion Starbucks taste like old burnt coffee. I would choose Dunkin' over Starbucks any day

And here are just a few reasons why...

1. It's cheaper

Let's get real here, who wants to pay $7 for some coffee that you most likely don't even know what is mixed with it since their menu is the most complicated thing.

2. The menu is much similar.

It's labeled, Iced Coffee, Hot Coffee, swirls and more. When I go into a Starbucks I literally have to study their menu and guess what I want. Nothing is simple there.

3. The taste

Dunkin's coffee is always perfect! Starbucks is just blahhh. I can't even explain it.. it doesn't even taste like coffee

4. Dunkin' puts the cream and sugar in for you

You don't have to tell them you need this many sugars and this many creams and hope you don't spill your coffee while attempting to fix your coffee while driving.

5. They have Coolattas

This is the most perfect drink to get on a hot summer day that no other coffee shop has!

6. You don't have to learn a new language

The employees at Dunkin' understand you, you don't have to come up with these crazy coffee flavors like you do at Starbucks.

7. Fresh donuts

Unlike Starbucks who has "pastry" items for sale, Dunkin' gives you fresh, fluffy donuts. Or if you would like Munchkins!

8. You don't have to worry about your name getting spelled wrong.

Dunkin is that good they don't need to ask you what your name is and write it in horrible handwriting, and spell it wrong.

9. The people

The employees at Dunkin' just seem to be much happier than the ones at Starbucks. Probably because they have to focus so hard on one drink, I surprised you don't need a degree to work at that place.

10. The colors

Who wants to wear a boring green apron. Dunkin's colors are so more appealing.

11. The cups.

The offer you a small discount when you bring in a cup to get refilled. It's seriously the best thing. The cups are only like $5. You can't get that at Starbucks unless you plan on buying some mug designed by some famous painter for $25

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?
