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.

birthday party

My birthday has never been my favorite holiday. I've found that I'm more excited to celebrate my friends' and family members' birthdays more than my own. I don't like being the center of attention, so I usually celebrate over dinner with a small group of family and friends. This way, I can enjoy myself naturally without feeling like I have to entertain everyone and make sure they are satisfied. In the past when I've had large parties, I was so nervous that people weren't perfectly content that I didn't enjoy myself at my own celebration.

College Informations

Most of us have already started the spring semester, and for those of you who haven't started yet, you suck.

It seems like coming back from winter break wouldn't really be a break all things considered, since we all come back to school and pick up right where we left off. We know exactly what to expect, yet we're unprepared every single time.

I'm serious

There are tons of unisex names that are popular: Taylor, Alex, Bailey, etc. There are also numerous names that are used for both sexes, but they’re not seen as “unisex” yet. People are slowly becoming accustomed to the dual use of these names, but for the most part, in their minds they associate certain names with certain sexes. And that leaves those of us with these names in many awkward situations.

I'm an anthropology major, and I love every minute of it. I couldn't tell you why, but I guess there's just something about studying different lifestyles that absolutely fascinates me. But anthropology majors definitely have our weird sides, especially when you go to a school that is filled with mostly Business and Bio majors. But us weirdos definitely have a lot in common, specifically these 16 things.
