What Your Starbucks Order Says About You

What Your Starbucks Order Says About You

I am not a psychologist, but I’d like to think that my many hours of people watching in Starbucks while I procrastinate on my homework has made me pretty good at analyzing people. Let me break the menu down and tell you who orders what... according to my studies.

"Large" Hot Coffee

Oh you mean a Venti? Did you want Blonde Roast? Dark Roast? Pike Place Roast? COME ON!

This is most likely a business man who works long hours and would prefer caffeine through an IV, but settles for stopping at any coffee place he sees on his morning commute. He probably ordered while on a business call, or checking his email.

Venti-Non-Fat-Caramel-blah-blah-blah

This is ordered by your typical "white girl." She is probably a regular and is probably rolling her eyes at the long line of people in front of her, who don’t know what they are ordering. She already has her “Gold Member” rewards card open on her iPhone before she even gets to the front of the line and brought her own Starbucks travel tumbler.

Iced Green Tea or Green Tea Latte

Ordered by a girl in her late 20s dressed in workout gear and probably just came from an early morning Bikram yoga, or a spin class. She is trying to keep it low calorie, while still getting enough caffeine to get herself to her next exercise class she has scheduled.



Strawberries & Creme Frappuccino

Most likely ordered in bulk by multiple middle-school aged kids who are finally allowed to walk around the strip mall without parental supervision after school. At almost 500 calories each, they are perfectly paired with a cookie or cake pop for even more of a sugar coma, which these pre-teens are looking for.


Triple Shot Espresso

This last drink is ordered by people like myself, trying to get the most caffeine into my body by paying the least amount of money. When you’re working on a deadline, but also on a budget like most college students, this drink is the go to.


And yes, I am sipping on a nice “trip-shot-espy” as I write this article.

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.
