Starbucks used to be fine to go to. Their prices actually didn't used to seem that bad. But now all of them are overcrowded with teenagers, and you can't enjoy your peace anymore. And here, it's not just Starbucks. Even my beloved Coffee Dreams has turned into a major franchise. And all those teenagers seem to be the coffeeshop elitists...ahh..c'est la vie.
Hopefully this trend dies out in half a year or so. then the coffee shops will once again be open to the general public.
