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.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.
