COFFEE TALK
GLAZER’S
KISSATEN
Coffee Talk might win on the funky scale. There are separate study rooms on reserve with unique architecture. This place is comfortable and has bright ambiance.
Glazer’s is a serious coffee house. With awesome indie art and antiques with vintage décor, this place screams cozy, peaceful and hipster.
What makes this shop stand out is its 24-7 appeal. With plenty of tables, it makes a great spot to meet up for a midnight study sesh or as somewhere to go in the middle of the night because sleeping is so mainstream.
MENU: Standard coffee bar. Try the hazelnut latte!
WIFI: FREE
MENU: From Italian sodas to Thai lattes, as well as a full kitchen with soups, salads and sandwiches, Kissaten has everything you could want to keep you satisfied from breakfast to dinner, as well as great Hawaiian coffee.

PARTY
Music surrounds us all the time. Whether it’s the alarm that gets us out of bed, the beat that drives us across campus in our headphones, or the background beat that accompanies our dancing, music is omnipresent. It is an ever-evolving art form; keeping up with it can be taxing yet rewarding. While it’s easy to hate on them, one thing that “hipsters” do right is staying on the forefront of new emerging artists. Hope you guys can dig this playlist, made especially for the budding hipsters out there.

VERBIAGE HIPSTER - hipsters are a subculture of men and women in their 20's and 30's that value independent thinking, counterculture, progressive politics, an appreciation of art and indie rock, creativity, intelligence and witty banter. INDIE - an obscure form of rock, which you only learn about from someone slightly more hip than yourself. GLAM - the art of celebrating all things beautiful, superficial. Marvelous, fabulous, imperfect, unserious. CHIPPER - a woman who's easy. “She's a real chipper; she’ll sleep with anyone"
FRADO - an ugly guy who thinks he's good-looking. TASSEL - girl. "Jim is definitely a frado, but somehow he gets a new tassel every night."
FIN - the opposite of deck, similar to outdated terms like "wack" and "lame." FUNK – basically its like this: soul + drugs = funk. “George Clinton plays some funky-ass funk.” Definitions via urbandictionary.com and the hipster handbook.

JUICER - a ladies' man. An individual who has undeniable sex appeal.

DECK - a key word for most hipsters, similar in meaning to the antiquated “fresh.”

When you walk through the market, you’ll see people of all ages engulfing themselves with creativity and originality. Bookstores, coffee shops, and a large warehouse are open to the public so that one can explore the vendors and art. There is no entrance fee, which is great for those who want to explore but not spend. Live music performances can be heard while you dance around, lounge on curvy benches set up on a platform of fake grass or chairs and tables set up by the food. To really understand the Honolulu Night Market you have to go and see it for yourself. There are constant additions of art and food to the market, as well as events and music headliners. It is a perfect place to hang out and explore the newest and latest events with a trendy crowd.

The Honolulu Night Market is one of the liveliest, most expressive street fairs in Honolulu. Every third Saturday artists, musicians, foodies and artisans alike come out to display their work and encompass visitors with creativity and inspiration. Visitors can expect to see vendors selling their creative pieces, from jewelry and art to clothing and food. Top restaurants from all over the island set up booths to satisfy your evening munchies and spike your interest in new and evolving menus. One can expect to see a plethora of cuisines and foods. The art at the Honolulu Night Market is expressive and passionate. When I went to the market in February, I saw small exhibits, people painting on the streets and even a trailer decked out in the beautiful images and colors. Street performers could be spotted all over as were stations set up for visitors to get creative with pens, pencils and markers provided by the market and/or artist managing the station.

Are those fake glasses? Your heart beats faster when you shop organic (and you always shop organic). Do you find yourself wearing a scarf in Hawaii, even when it is sweltering hot outside? Can you only open your legs halfway because your skinny jeans restrict your crotch region? You own a pair of TOMS. You only write in Moleskine journals. Do you drink kombucha? Do you think your mustache is awesome/do you think handlebar mustaches are awesome? (If you have a handle-bar mustache, add an extra point). What color is your fixie? (Trick question: you have a fixie; add a point). Would you want to be a barista? The majority of your wardrobe consists of screen-printed tees. PBR is your favorite beer. You have a token Republican friend whom you always refer to as your “Republican friend.” You watch unknown documentaries on the regular. Do you only listen to bands that no one has heard of before, like Fit for Hounds and Quadratic Emcees? You liked the page “Are you Buddhist” on Facebook. You’re too cool for Facebook. Do you wear your grandparents’ clothes? You deny being a hipster but secretly you like it on the inside. Do you reflect deeply every day and have a meditation hour? Do you now enjoy the books you were forced to read in high school, like: The Great Gatsby, Oliver Twist, Pride and Prejudice and Huckleberry Finn? Do you try to shop online at IKEA, even though they don’t ship to Hawai‘i? Do you know Matt the Hipster on campus? Do you try to start your own fads? Did you make a Tumblr and delete it when it became too mainstream?
