During this (let’s be honest, during every) finals season, you probably have two things on your mind:
1. How you can creatively procrastinate
2. What caffeinated beverage you should buy next

Lucky for you, you already have an answer to number one (this quiz!) and you will have an answer to number two in a matter of seconds.
So read on, drink up, and then study hard.

The answer is:
The Vanilla Chai Latte
Photo by Erica Wong Like the vanilla chai latte, you’re a well-loved classic. You’re the poster child of Georgetown – well-spoken, well-dressed and responsible. You’ve probably even graced the cover of a Georgetown publication or two with your image. You’re a reliable person (just like the chai latte is reliably good) and you’re practical. Your GPA is probably as impressive as the flavor profile of this drink. Don’t be afraid to add some spice occasionally by exploring a non-Georgetown neighborhood (like Adams Morgan, U Street or Columbia Heights), taking a random elective like oil painting or photography or studying abroad at an atypical destination. You might be delightfully surprised by how exciting it can be.
The answer is:
The Zenmaster: Vanilla Jasmine Tea
Photo by Theo Lee You are so obviously the master of zen. Tranquil and level-headed, you don’t let the stress of Georgetown get to you. And when you do feel stressed, you know just the remedy – a yoga session, a hike or a trip to the meditation center. You’re kind and a great listener and advice-giver; your friends flock to you for those qualities. While tranquility is truly admirable, don’t let a desire to avoid stress prevent you from working hard when the situation calls for it. You may find it remarkably fulfilling to accomplish something challenging and high-pressured.
The answer is:
The Red Eye: Coffee with a Shot of Espresso
Photo by Erica Wong You epitomize this ultra-caffeinated beverage, and at times your energy even surpasses that which the red eye provides. You embody “Work hard, play hard” (pardon the expression). You thrive in social situations – the louder and the more people, the better. You're also really involved on campus, and your friends wonder where you find the energy to do it all. You're probably one of those Georgetown student legends – someone everyone seems to know by name, even if they don't know you personally. Sometimes though, you spread yourself too thin and risk total exhaustion. Be sure to make time for some “you time”, maybe sip an herbal tea and watch a little Netflix.
The answer is:
A Decaf Cappuccino with Soy, Hazelnut and Extra Foam
Photo by Erica Wong You’re pretty high maintenance, and you know it. You appreciate the finer things in life, and you expect quality from everything, including clothes, food and other people. However you also set the bar high for yourself. You are hardworking when it comes to academics, and you are a loyal, devoted friend. Don’t be afraid to occasionally keep things simple – you might be surprised by how enjoyable a walk around Georgetown (free of shopping) or a night of Netflix with a friend can be.
The answer is:
The Robinhood: Mango Lime Iced Tea
Photo by Theo Lee Let’s face it, you’re an alternative kind of drink. Some might even call you hipster, but I won’t. Regardless, you’re completely uninterested in being an “ordinary” Georgetown student, and you wouldn’t be caught dead wearing Vineyard Vines or drinking at Rhino on a Thursday. You like to explore all that DC has to offer, especially music and cultural events outside the Georgetown bubble. People who don’t know you might think you’re a bit cold, but those who do would say that, like this iced tea, you’re perfectly sweet. Every now and then, don't be afraid to do some “typical" Georgetown things – you might be surprised by how fun basketball games and nights at the Tombs can be.
