Oh my gosh what is this, I’m losing my touch. I forgot how to brew tea DDD:

I haven’t had tea in nearly 3 months?? I’ve been moving from one place to another and all my kitchen and tea stuff has been all over the place and I lost my kettle for a while.. but I wanna get back into tea becauseeee I’M GOING TO THE LA INTERNATIONAL TEA FESTIVAL THIS WEEKEND AHHH. I’m so excited! I think I might go to the two Japanese classes bc why not. But the Darjeeling class is at the same time as the Green Tea class D:

But anyway TEA THINGS. I forgot how to brew tea and forgot what my favourite way to brew this tea D: I did 4g into a wee small mug, but I think I let my water sit out for too long bc it wasn’t strong enough for me. Ahh well, a second steeping with hotter water should do the trick :)

POINTLESS LIFE UPDATES.
I got Lead in my location at Disneyland which is FAB. Don’t know if I posted that on here??
Uhh tomorrow is my last day of undergrad BC I’M FREAKIN GRADUATING THIS WEEK. Tomorrow is my last day in class, and I just have 1.5 tests to take by next week, but I might just take it early just to get it over with. I’m expecting 3 A’s and 1 B this quarter which isn’t too bad :)
Now that I’ll be done with school, all I have to worry about is work. And don’t worry, I have plans to do (hopefully) fantastic things in life, however, the programs that I want to participate in don’t start till summer of next year so I have to wait. Meanwhile, I think I might study to take the Level 1 (and 2??) Somm test next year. I’m going to buy all the wine textbooks and work my way up to being a Wine master. And possibly a Beer and Tea Master as well… I have the most fastastic urls saved on tumblr and I think that might be my diary of all things Wine/Beer/Tea Master learning stuff.

Tea rating guide:
100-95: Best thing to ever touch my mouth and I want more. Restocking is a must
94-80: Love this tea. Restock if I can
79-70: Decent tea. Neither love nor hate.
69-60: I won’t be upset when it runs out. I’ll drink it but won’t restock.
59-30: I’ve done whatever I can to like this tea and I’ll finish the cup.
29-10: I’ve done whatever I can to like this tea. It may or may not have gone down the sink…
9-below: Let’s not even hide it. This definitely went down the drain.

I love tea.
I drink it.
I log it.
I have a good time.
Lather, rinse, repeat.

I first discovered my love for tea with jasmine teas because that’s all my mother would buy, so for the longest time, I thought that all teas were jasmine! And then in 4th grade, I watched the tea episode of Good Eats and that’s when the education started! I’d like to blame Alton Brown for starting this obsession because now I only like loose leaf tea.
It wasn’t until my second year of college that I actually expanded my tea taste buds. Special shout out to Cara McGee, Tea Queen for her Adagio Fandom blends. Because of Cara, I actually started drinking blacks, herbals and whites and pretty much everything else in between. I still have a special love for my jasmine though :)
I (try to) drink tea daily. Usually just straight up, no sugar or milk. This little obsession started young and just… kept going, I guess.

also I apologize in advance for lazy tasting notes and horrible grammar in everything I write. I was an avid fandom blogger on tumblr and tumblr talk can get in the way of everything kthxbai

Location

Disneyland. Literally.
