Like many people, I like to start my day off with a nice hot cup of coffee. I have a $250 coffee/espresso maker at home, but I only seem to use it on the weekends–most likely because I am lazy during the week.
I used to stop by Starbucks everyday for a grande black coffee (dark roast). That daily routine was starting to hurt the wallet. When I was in school, my friend Luis and I would go to the Circle K right near campus and get coffee for cheap. I think it was about $1.25 for a 20 oz coffee. Circle K has a variety of roasts and creamers. I then discovered an even better deal. A refill was only $0.85! I try as much as possible to bring my mug to get that $0.85 deal.
Currently, Circle K is my favorite place to go for coffee–there is no Dunkin Donuts in Tallahassee. Circle K used to brew Kona coffee, which is one of my favorites. All of a sudden they stopped. I have to settle for a Tres Rios, which is the next best thing there for me. Today, I got my morning brew and found out that they took away the hazelnut creamer. It was replaced with creama leche or something like that or maybe another caramel. I normally do not take cream with my coffee unless I buy coffee somewhere–it is weird and hard to explain. Regular cream is okay, and I can only have French vanilla coffee iced.
So now, I am kind of bummed at Circle K. They are slowly taking away what got me hooked on them.
But the good part about this is studying with Luis, coffee, and sitting outside studying.
I’m splitting my time studying and uploading/tagging my photos on Flickr. Probably not the most effective studying method, but it’s working so far.
