Starbucks students, laptop loungers: Your days are numbered

[_Qwerty_]

syempre nga naman aircon.. sofa ang upuan.. o diba ang sarap mag aral.. tapos hindi lang yun.. pansinin nyo.. may nap time din sila.. natutulog din don ang mga yan.. kunwari nagbabasa pero tulog na..

dapat i-hire ng Starbucks management yun mga PUJ drivers, para magkasya lahat doon sa sofa...pag meron bwakaw na student eh papausugin para magkasya sa isang stool 5 customers.

pero at least Starbucks is now fighting back.

yun bang mga nagka-"cramming" sa starbucks? nakakailang order ba ng coffee ang mga yan?
eh baka naman bibili ng isa, then patatagalin ubusin, para makapag-stay lang ng matagal sa SB.

maraming ganyan. "entrance fee" nila yung bibili ng coffee, then uunti-untiin nilang ubusin hanggang sa maging kasing lamig na ng iced caffe yung kape nila, para lang makapag internet sa SB.......

Cramming sa padamihan ng "like" sa FB.

During my time, the "in" place to study was McDo Katipunan. Sometimes med students would come in with airport luggage full of books. When I was at the University Belt, anything Wendy's. 24 hours... tons of ice tea and Frosty to keep you awake. And when you step outside the door, tons of Prosti chasing you for your money. :hysterical:

Some people can't study in noisy places. Others can't stand it if it's too quiet. Starbucks during the right hours is just right... soothing music, not so many people... it's only after High Schools let out and all the noisy kids come in that it becomes a problem to study there.

I could never study at a coffeehouse. I need my desk space... places to lay out my books and papers. I often studied in fields and libraries. Didn't do me much good. I'm not good at studying via reading. Too ADHD. I'm more of a visual or hands-on learner kasi.

Some people just want to be "seen".

Mga feeling, kakainis ganyan. La naman pera.

Parang status symbol na lang kasi sa iba. As in tambay talaga!
