Why I Always Bring Extra Coffee for My Classmates

So I’m this grad student, yeah? Big papers to write, classes to attend. Last semester, there was this weird thing where I started bringing extra coffee to class. Not like a big pot of it, just an extra cup or two. It’s not exactly something you’d think would be weird, but for me, it felt out of character. Usually, I’m pretty solitary, keep to myself. But now, I catch myself thinking about how much everyone needs caffeine to survive this rigorous academic schedule. Maybe it’s the early morning classes? Or just a realization that small acts of kindness can make such a difference. Whatever it is, here I am, confessing why my coffee supply has become a class tradition. And honestly? I’m kind of okay with that.
