    I've been coming to this starbucks for the past 4 years and have gotten to know all of the baristas, managers, and have even dedicated a drink here (the historian). I'm usually here once or twice a day... and being mcat prep time, the minute I walk in here around 830, my favorite barista already has a cup ready for me. When I leave for lunch and come back, another barista has a tea ready for me. And around 5 - 6 pm, another barista gives me a cup of coffee.

    I'm not a coffee drinker, so I guess I'm missing out :p

    Perhaps I'll try it, someday, but I'm not really sure. Doesn't do anything for me waking up wise, so I don't see the point. I am tempted to try moving my studying to a place like Starbucks though, getting out of the apartment at school would be nice...

    Not a coffee drinker, eh?. gotta convert you.

    I usually wake up, have a coffee from my lovely keurig.

    I go to the gym, take a shower, have a breakfast, and I'm out the door.

    I have a coffee the minute I get to starbucks.

    I have some tea in the afternoon.

    I have another coffee in the evening, before dinner.

    I have a "nighttime coffee" again.

    ... perhaps I'm a caffeine junkie... but I think HC's got it worse ;)

    Studying/working at Starbucks is great. The music is awesome, the coffee aroma is divine, and the people generally are quite entertaining. I love the coffeeshop atmosphere. :)

    Wow, that's a lot of coffee. Pretty much all I drink now is water (aside from alcohol). I used to drink soda, but decided that I didn't want to drink any calories, it sounds like a waste. (again, aside from alcohol :p)

    Definitely... I can go without coffee with no physical problems (headaches, etc) if I want to, but I just don't want to! I adore the stuff... nectar of the gods in my book.

    Light and sweet

    Black

    Ethiopian, Sumatran

    With cream, without

    Blended, mixed, over ice

    Mmmmm...

    That I didn't know. I should mention that I don't like the taste of coffee unless there is sugar in it though :p
