Ok i don’t rock a desk in my bachy, so i hit up the wireless coffee joints on the reg regga. Davie Blenz is half a block away from I with the home court advantage, and also 24 hrs as is Waves, but with a cheep produce across the street for snack smugglin (loves me some deluxe mixed nuts). Food wise, they both have peanut butter squares and that’s all you need to know about that. But it still ain’t the spot. Waves on Hastings and Richards is that joint, with entertaining crackheads strollin in if you’re down for straight sippin and clownin with some friends. Big however, if you’re on the work tip, you best bring the headphones cause you are in for: 1. a lot of foreign exchange noise, i’m talkin some louuuud study sessions. 2. Creepy perverts who “like the colour of my hair, it reminds me of my mother as a youth…” and WILL stare at you till you take the earbuds out! Ladies you have been warned! 3. Either strange house remixes of britney spears and enrique songs, or overly acoustic “coffeehouse” jams. Blenz takes it hands down with the jazz. and 4. as i stated, headphones is a must as your false ignorance is needed for the crazies propositioning the whole place for anything but coffee. If you’re planning on hitting Waves for a late night weekend sesh (yeah, i’ve done it once…) be wary of drunken Decembers either 1. Being sexily obnoxious with her girls during a photobooth assembly after the club 2. Spending 8 minutes choosing which lasagna we should get with which wrap, and “which one is youuuurrrre favooorrite mr. barrissstaaaar?” and 3. subsequently passing out in or groaning over said lasagna. And with alllllladat being said, and considering Blenz’s soy americano mistos are sooooo much better, I still rate Waves as the place to be cause i guess when it comes down to it, they got fat leather chairs, hot baristinas, and a dude named Reeking of Cigarettes Gus just sidled up on my left. For the thrill seeking café-goer, don’t sleep on the grand opening of the newest 24hr Waves, just down from Main and Hastings! I’m not joking. Live from Blenz Coffee, this is December reporting. LIIIIISTEEEEEEEENNNNNUP!
Oh, and have you BEEN on photobucket lately????
