Sara Hagar
I have become the very thing I used to despise: the girl that goes to Starbucks multiple times a week. When I was in high school, I remember thinking how silly it was to pay six dollars for a drink. I could think of plenty of better things to do with all that money, namely, purchasing something substantive, or at least something that gains value over time.
I went to Starbucks five times this past week. I spent thirty dollars on a drink entitled the ‘pink drink’ just because pink is my favorite color and I like the sweet taste it has. It feels unreal that I not only go to this place I used to hate, but that I go there so often. There’s just something about that venti-sized plastic cup with a siren imprinted on it, that makes me feel compelled to stop by after the most minor inconveniences, or when everything goes right. The fact of the matter is, I feel the urge to reward myself for literally anything I do.
If it’s Monday, well obviously I deserve a treat.
Tuesday, we’re almost half-way done with the work-week, so I’ll be swinging by Starbucks.
Wednesday, literally the marker that the week is almost over. A pink drink is a necessity.
Thursday, I probably had a rough day, and sugar makes everything better.
Friday, does this really need an explanation?
You could say I’m treating myself well, though I fear I may have taken self-care a little too far. I always buy myself a drink if I want it. But money doesn’t grow on trees, and as such is true, the consequences on my wallet have been grave.
When you’re spending approximately thirty dollars a week on a sugary drink that probably only costs one dollar to make, you have to make sacrifices for other things in your budget. Only buying groceries if you can find a coupon for them, not going out for dinner even if all of your other friends are doing so, and settling for a lot of other things because it's the best you can do.
Addictions to Starbucks drinks can have debilitating consequences and no one ever really talks about that. The "need" to always be drinking something that is not water. I don't know why, but I swear drinks taste better when they are made by someone else and you pay too much for them. Is there a solution to this problem?
The only thing I can think of, besides moving to the middle of nowhere where I would be forced to act as a hunter-gatherer and find my own foods and filter the water I find from a stream flowing nearby, is to slowly wean myself off of the addicting substance. Much easier said than done.
You have to take it slowly; From five drinks a week to four, and so on. So far, my plan has worked well, and I hope to continue on the road to recovering from a weakness I never thought I would succumb to.
Since my admission of my pitfalls, I have made some great improvements. I currently only visit Starbucks a mere three times a week.
I was surprised when I showed up one day to put in my usual order and I saw all of the baristas give a visual sigh of relief at my presence. They informed me they had been concerned at my sudden disappearance. While I plan on proceeding with my resolution, it did feel nice to know that there are people out there in the world that look forward to seeing you, even if you don't always feel the best about yourself.
