Cheap Coffee

The only convenient coffee shop near the middle of campus is this tiny two-person operation, which always results in a line that wraps around the hall of the Union. It’s quite the conundrum for someone like myself who appreciates hot coffee but can’t fathom waiting more than ten minutes for it in a public setting. I have resorted to buying cold bottled coffee from the neighboring convenience store a couple of times, but it’s just not the same.

But yesterday I found a hot coffee machine in the corner of the convenience store. I had been sitting there this whole time. It had the cheap Dixie coffee cups and the big coffee things with the spigot, and even the cardboard sleeves. The coffee wasn’t good, but it was cheap. And cheap coffee is always great.
