As if anxiety while being in college isn't enough, everyone knows the anxiety of waiting in the drive-through line for the Tut Starbucks.

With drive-through lines crowding the intersection, students are always lined up, impatient, hungry, and waiting to indulge in their favorite caffeinated drink. While we wait in line, we begin to ponder on millions of things. From what we’re going to order to college things, and even life decisions.

Here are 10 thoughts every student has while waiting in line at the Tut Starbucks.

1. "Is this moving traffic or is this the ACTUAL line for Starbucks?"

That moment when you can't decide whether there is actual moving traffic or you're waiting in line for Starbucks. The confusion gets REAL! The roads are so narrow, who can tell the difference half the time?!

2. "Do I want a hot or iced drink?"

It's a tough decision when you're not sure whether you're feeling warm and cozy or nice an refreshing.

3. "Dear God, I hope I have enough Dining Dollars..."

That moment when you say a little prayer in hopes of having enough Dining Dollars for your favorite drink...

4. "YES!!! My card went through!!!"


Borderline broke girl status...need I say more???

5. "OK, it's 8:30 and class starts at 9:00, I think I have enough time to make it through this line...it's Starbucks for crying out loud."

When you're looking forward to your morning pick-me-up, you will MAKE time to get it... OKURRRR... even if that means being five minutes late... or 10 minutes... 15 minutes???

6. "Please sweet baby Jesus, don't let them be out of Almond/Soy/Coconut Milk."

Nothing hurts worse than when you order your signature drink and they're out of your favorite milk alternative. Literally, nothing hurts worse... not even a Brazilian wax...

7. "THANK GOD I'M NEXT!!!"

*Pulls up to the drive-through speaker with the biggest smile in the world*

8. "I know my order was slightly complicated, but I hope they get it right..."

Additions, substitutions, things you want to take out... it's all a part of the ordering process. We just have to cross our fingers and hope they get the order right.

9. "Is that my drink?? Ooooo it looks so goooooood."

A little bit of whipped cream here, maybe a little caramel drizzle there. Whatever your toppings may be, nothing warms your heart more than seeing your drink near completion.

10. "Crap... I'm late for class, but you know what... waiting in the Tut Starbucks line was worth it."

Can you relate to some of these thoughts? What are some additional thoughts that you have while waiting for your Starbucks?? Comment below!

Sip on, Sis!!!

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
