Let’s talk places! Being from Brooklyn, New York there are so many places to visit and explore. There are coffee shops to museums, thrift shops and so much more. But I’m more of a quiet person, I like spaces that are calm and I can just be myself in. Brooklyn is known for its urban culture, there is so much around to appreciate. There’s a little bit of everything. I mean come on, Brooklyn is where it’s at !
My favorite place is just a couple blocks away from where I live. That place is Dunkin Donuts. Yes I love going to Dunkin donuts. I think I first started drinking coffee when I was like 14 years old, when I started high school. Ever since than coffee has been a necessity to me. I know that if ever I need a place to kill time it’s Dunkin Donuts. I have made so many memories in the Dunkin donuts near my house. I’m there at least once a week, every week. I make sure I always have some money for coffee. When my cousin first came from Mexico, Dunkin Donuts was one of the first places I took him. There I ordered an iced mocha latte and he had a hot chocolate. We sat down at a table for two and talked for about two hours. I love going to Dunkin with different people. Everybody has their own reaction to the same place. You can go to a place a thousand times, and experience something new every time . I have a best friend named Tabitha, and during our senior year in high school Dunkin was our place to go. We spent almost every day there. Always venting and talking about different situations we were going through. I remember taking a college now class with her at Brooklyn college, and before every class we were sure enough to make a stop at Dunkin. Dunkin just makes me feel comfortable. I’ve had problems before, and didn’t really know where to go to get some clear thinking. I found sure enough that Dunkin was my safe haven. It’s a place where I get tranquility and the smell of coffee just makes a person feel good. There are so many memories I can talk about. I’ve had some extremely good times but I’ve also had some not so good times. I guess you can say it’s kind of corny to say that an orange and brown painted place is really corny. But I frankly don’t care. The dunking that’s around my house is also near a train station, a liquor store, a food market and a pizzeria. I find it interesting to just sit there and appreciate everything around , to see all the different people who walk by there and try to figure out where there going , what they’re doing, it’s fun to make up stories about them. After all there are so many unique people in Benson Hurst. I guess I can speak a lot about things that have happened there. I think it’s safe to say, you know it’s real if I take you to the Dunkin. This is because well all have things or places that are special or personal to us for our unique reasons. And when building a friendship or relationship we only choose certain people who we feel are worthy enough to share these things with. Dunkin has become a personal favorite of mine, and I don’t just go with anybody, and I know that if need a place to go I can order an iced latte and sit in my favorite coffee shop.
