College Students and Coffee Shops

Whether on campus or downtown, close to the school, or a little ways away, college students now flood coffee shops which seem to be located on every street corner.
With text books, laptops that beckon papers and assignments to be completed, college students trug their Jansport backpacks and warm vanilla lattes to a cozy table to conquer their dreary homework assignments that separate them from their social availability on school campus.
 As I write this, I just so happen to be one of these people. However, I have learned to incorporate this study method with my social life. My friends Katie and Sam sit across from me at the table, with their laptops and text books at work.
 There's something about Mumford and Sons playing in the background, and the other fellow "Corban-ites" we encountered upon our arrival tonight that makes homework not so dreadful.
 Needless to say, I am neglecting my open College writing book to write this, but I couldn't help but document the essence.
Soft lights, the smell of coffee beans, and the warm company of friends as I study.
For any of you who have once wondered why college students find studying and hanging out at coffee shops so appealing, I hope I have enlightened you to some extent.
Back to my homework I go...
