Introduction:
Sometimes I need a place where I can have a sip of a hot beverage in
front of a relaxing and mind-blowing view to ease my thoughts and sail away
from reality for a bit. Sometimes I need a place where I can do my homework
and studies in between classes so that I can feel prepared for what the
professor has in store for us in the lecture. Sometimes I need a place where I
can go to with friends and meet new people in a friendly environment where
everyone is kind and caring. Sometimes I need a place where I can
experience and listen to the talented voices of Bellinghams students and
local artist. What place pops up in your thoughts when you hear someone
say these? I asked a student I approached on campus and her name was
Megan she responded by saying The Underground Coffeehouse immediately
came to my thoughts. The place that always comes to my mind when I hear
someone say one of these phrases is the Underground Caf, as mentioned in
the epigraph Place is a simple term but does not have the same meaning
each time it is used, a place can be somewhere that has solutions for
problems like these and not only these types of problems as it also deals
with the difficulties that todays society is dealing with from social problems
to personal emotions. The Underground Caf has helped me a lot with
problems like these as it also has helped me feel more comfortable to the
surroundings around me and the culture that is within the community today,
I am going to telling you about the many problems us students face and give
you the ways that the Underground Caf can offer solutions to us.
But first of all this place is not the perfect place as in my opinion I have been
told and I have witnessed myself, there seems to be a couple of problems
which need to be solved sooner rather than later. From all the problems and
complaints I have heard from the people who go there, I have always been
notified of two of them constantly being brought to subject, students tend to
complain about the place not having enough seating when events are held
which at the same time leads to some of the students getting furious and
complaining to the hardworking staff members even though they have no
hand in a solution to this problem. The other most heard problems comes
from band performers as they start to argue that the stage is not a suitable
size for other performers who have multiple instruments with sometimes
performers walking around the stage and falling off while some of these
performers sustained injuries due to this problem. I will explain why these
problems need to be resolved and offer a proposal of a solution. What causes
the problem of lack space is mostly the events which attracts lots of students
to go, they often go there for the experience and to gather with friends but
cause of the lack of space, they cant find a place to sit which leads them to
feeling angry and storming out of the place unpleased.
Nowhere to sit:
the high demand of students for programs such as Pre-Physical Therapy and
Pre-Health Care. Also, expanding it can help with the problem of seat
capacity with the expansion leading to creating more space for furniture and
places to sit. But, where would they get the money? Easy, as I mentioned
earlier that the events that are held at the place should come with a fee
especially when a popular event or well-known local Bellinghams band and
artists perform, when all of this is done the leftover money can be donated to
charity of all sorts for good cause.
suggested while I also think they would not find a better solution. While I also
discussed one of the most common problems in our society today, the
feeling of being lonely with the idea of expressing and proposing this to the
people who cannot get over this feeling by telling them they can overcome
this situation at the underground caf. The place where most of the students
who go there share one anothers thoughts with the traits of being kind and
caring for whatever the person has to say and with my personal experience
from the amount of times I have visited this place, I can say that it can affect
a persons mood from feeling sad to having the best time of your life and I
can also say that there are people who feel safe and comfortable meeting
friends there who are really close to them. That is why I think that the
problems that come up there should be resolved in a matter of time.
