I LOVE COFFEE SHOPS..



Task:
Homework to get done tonight.. completing a 15 page paper take home final, finishing a reflection paper, researching for articles for another paper

Options to complete task:
1) Stay at home and do homework, be distracted for several hours by Jon's desire to play video games or watch hunting TV while I study in the same room, no room in our 1 bedroom condo to have my own space to study and being distracted by the need to clean or watch TV instead. OR if its too quiet with no noise, fall asleep while doing homework

2) Go to Coffee Shop..... Alterra or Caribou (the only ones with free internet- boo to starbucks), perfect amount of busy background noise and overhead music, a coffee drink in hand, and homework completed in 1/2 the time... everything got done in 2 hours

Now if only I wouldn't have to drive to the other side of town to find an Alterra or Caribou.. there is a lack of choice of coffee choices in my area

Thanks to Caribou and Alterra for helping me be productive and get homework done while in Grad school... :)
