Hi everybody, it’s Lindsay, and welcome to my new blog!
In this recurring segment, Sips ‘n’ Tips, I’ll bring you guys along each time I visit a new local coffee shop in our community. Expect a review of the place itself (the location, the atmosphere, the menu) as well as recommendations for specific orders.
Also, I’ll be sharing a few select study tips for each entry to go along with the coffee shop rec – get it? Sips and Tips? Anyway… These will be some different small pieces of advice each time, but expect study techniques, music recommendations, and website suggestions, to name a few. After all, studying is always more fun when it’s paired with a nice latte.
You might be wondering, why did I choose this blog, and what are my qualifications to speak on these matters? First and foremost, I’m a bit addicted to coffee, and will take any excuse to try a new coffee shop. More seriously, though, I think it’s important to support local businesses, and I hope that this blog will encourage some of you to do just that. When it comes to studying, I’m a bit of a self-proclaimed nerd, but also have been at Pine View since middle school (and am now a senior) so I want to pass down some of the advice and lessons I’ve learned over the years.
Be on the lookout for my first official entry soon! In the meantime, here are some photos I’ve recently taken at some local coffee shops; they’ll serve as a bit of a teaser for what’s to come.
