Finals Week: I’ve been mugged! (Coffee style)

For the past week, I’ve been consuming the life of study, study, studying, with a side of sleep and food. But because the quantities of sleep and food are more limited than I would like, I’ve had to turn to the “typical” college student’s go-to: caffeine. The more I can find it in coffee form, …

Anatomy of a Sunday!

Sundays in college are good. And weird. Mostly good. This is the basics of how they usually go! 9:15 a.m.: Wake up and get ready for church. 10:30 a.m.: Attend the second service at Pillar Church.
