I lived in Pennsylvania for the first 20 years of my life, so I know all about cold weather. Even here in North Carolina, although I’ve escaped most of the snow, it still can get pretty chilly during the winter. Regardless of the temperature outside, I’ve found that it almost doesn’t matter what season it is, the office always seems to be an icebox and I can never quite figure out how to stay warm at work.
Starbucks, for me as well as many people across the globe, is a tiny cup of happiness. It’s a quick way to recharge and break up the hours of sitting at a desk, starting at a screen. It’s something to look forward to. It’s a heartwarming treat to brighten your day. In honor of National Coffee Day, I wanted to share 8 Starbucks drinks you absolutely must try.
Nowadays, working from home is the new norm. Even companies that previously didn’t permit telework or swore it wasn’t possible have adapted and are making it happen. Teachers, as well as their elementary through college students, have, at least at some point, had to navigate the switch to virtual classrooms… and don’t even get me started on how much I empathize with those who are trying to work at home while taking care of a baby and/or ensuring their young child stays focused on their schoolwork.
As a high school student, I toured a lot of colleges- I’m talking somewhere around 13. I was very picky. Among my non-negotiables, were that I wanted a reputable business school, small class sizes, and a campus that felt like home. Ultimately, that’s what I got- a quaint, private business school tucked around 30 minutes outside of the city.
As with many things in life, prep is key, and that is no exception when it comes to travel. Unless you’re playing the throw a dart on the map and buy a plane ticket game, you’re likely spending quite a bit of time before vacation researching the best places to stay, stalking flight pricing trends, building out an itinerary, and figuring out logistics. Once that is out of the way and you’ve gotten through the dreaded packing stage, you’re ready for the fun part… almost.
