So many coffee shops, so little time

Even though school just started a week ago, you may already find yourself in the familiar position of sitting in your bed, staring at your textbook and falling asleep. Let's face it, as comfy and wonderful as your bed may be, it simply isn't the best place to study. And everyone knows that the carrels in the library lend themselves to snoozes. So, if you're looking to "perk" yourself up a bit, you might want to head to a coffee shop and breathe in the smell of caffeine with other coffee-a-holics. While Brown and Brew and Someday Caf?© are great places to go to work, the more adventurous student might want to take a quick T ride to Harvard Square for a change of scenery. Even though Harvard Square can at times seem like a bastion of commercial stores, the jaded coffee drinker might want to give some of these caf?©s a second look, as I did. And if you aren't a coffee drinker... don't fear. Harvard Square has plenty of alternatives.
