uhhh...one cup of coffee, one Roobios Bourbon Street Vanilla tea, one mocha, and one vanilla latte later, and me and Lauren had studied at Krankies for 5 hours. INTENSE.

So...yesterday, my study snack was nothing more than some Skittles and Candy-Canes. Yeah, not very impressive. The amount of actual studying I got done wasn't that impressive either. I've been hung up on this English paper that I have to write. It has to be 8 pages long, and it can be about anything we want, as long as we use a book that we've read in class. I really don't like open ended prompts. The little time I did try and designate for studying/writing, I pondered, revised, brainstormed, and questioned, and ended up with nothing. Today was a tad bit better.

Though I didn't really make much progress on this paper, I did get some French studying out of the way! At least I feel somewhat productive? After posting this, I will try and do some free writing for my paper, to see if I can get the juices a flowin'! 

Days of studying: 3 (if you count yesterday)
Subject of choice: up until now, French
Snack of choice: Pretzels and Hummus, along with a English Toffee Latte (with out the expected overwhelming sweetness) from the student run coffee shop, Campus Grounds.

Nifty travel mug, eh? 10 dollars gets you one of these bad boys, and a free drink! Totally worth it.

local favs: coffee

Krankies Coffee

Need a place to study, talk, and hang out with a friend? Check out Krankies Coffee on Third St. It has a pretty mellow atmosphere, GREAT coffee, live band performances on the weekends, and a local farmers market every now and then (the next is the 26th of Oct I believe).

With tons of table choices, lots of space, and free wireless internet, it's my first alternative to studying on campus. In fact it's becoming my preferred place to study!

A Hazelnut Latte was my preferred cup of joe :)

Need to get up and walk around after hitting the books hard? There's a gallery in the next room, where you can stretch your legs and exercise that right side of your brain! How convenient is that?!

Check it out! And let me know what YOU love about Krankies!
