Bittersweet Sipdown (107)

I LOVE this tea. I got a sample of it from shmiracles last month and it was definitely my favourite out of all the teas! So it is a sad sipdown because I definitely want more.
Buuuut GUESS WHO JUST GOT ACCEPTED INTO THE DISNEY COLLEGE PROGRAM!?
You remember that interview I had on Wednesday? Yep, well I got the job :) Not a role that I necessarily wanted, but it is Disney and luckily I still get credit for it sooo DISNEY HERE I COME. I got the role as a Vacation Planner, but I definitely wanted something to do with lodging, not the parks itself, but hey. I’ll take it!
I can either choose to start in May or June. Dude I don’t even know. Both dates are terrible because I’m still in school then so… oh I’ll figure it out later. BUT YES. DISNEY.

Thank you!
But 250g though? I don’t know if on the Canadian site there’s an option for smaller ones, but ahh if I had the money I’d totally go for it!

VariaTEA

No, 250 g is the only option and I agree it is quite a bit. Just thought I would mention it in case you really wanted to stock up :P.

jump62359

Heheh thanks :) I saw way long ago that they had the smaller tins and I was SO going to buy it! But they were already sold out :(
If I had an income, oh I would have already gotten that big pack. But looks like I’ll just have to wait it out!

((I know this is terrible, but I’m really excited to start working for Disney because that means I’ll get paid and that means MONEY FOR TEA.))

Congrats! When you wish upon a star and all that. :-)

Yeah for you! You got your foot in the door and that’s where all the magic starts! Best wishes!

A dream is a wish my heart makes, and yep. I’ve been dreaming about the DCP ever since my previous program ended :)
And actually, this is my second job with Disney! I was fortunate enough to participate in the same program, but in Walt Disney World. The program that I got accepted into is the one for California so I could easily commute :)

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.
