- Been here a couple times for French convo tables last year (or was it two years ago?); but never came to study, ordered anything, or stayed a while to get a real feel for its atmosphere
- Came here straight from church; Sundays = sleep + study; just decided not to retreat to my dorm room this time and try a change of scenery
- Open setup, plenty of indoor and outdoor seating, warm-colors, plenty of natural light during the day, right across from campus... I see now why this place attracts so many people
- Would've tried their vanilla matcha latte but they were out of matcha (really?), among other things apparently
- Sea Mist Sencha (yay loose leaves!) + Vegan zucchini bread
- Spent an hour watching "Going My Home" for Japanese class
- Spent another two and a half hours watching Letters from Iwo Jima for another class; one of the longest films I've ever watched, but also one of the most nuanced and well-made war films I've ever watched
- Yay for "American" films spoken in Japanese! And yay for war films that don't bore me to tears and aren't simply about Americanssupposedlysbeingbetterthaneverybodyelse!
- Cute chalkboard sign behind the counter that read: "Welcome Back! We missed you. Coffee. Study. Sleep. Repeat"; sums up my life except for the coffee part
