63 Tasting Notes
sipping on this while looking over the practical part of my thesis; have to keep in mind that I have to push through this (awful, horrendous) bit to go on vacation with a clean conscience; then I’ll defend it and apply for a PhD (meaning I’ll have to go through this again)
Preparation
brought this to work, it’s always nice to drink tea throughout the morning :)
today is shaping up to be a good day!
one of my coworkers gifted me (and everyone else) two Lindt mini eggs, and Dua Lipa just released her new album! also going to have a nice lunch with my colleagues, including one that left us to work in the industry!
I had a bit of a panic tuesday with work, but after taking a deep breath I’ve come to the conclusion that it’s actually manageable! this should prove, more than anything, that I DEFINITELY need a week away from my thesis
Preparation
made this beautiful brew to both celebrate the holiday (yay May 1st!) and to have something to drink while reading
I’m currently making my way through Convenience Store Woman, so a green-white-fruits blend makes waay more sense than Lady Grey :)
Preparation
after yesterday I realized my thesis is in MUCH better shape than I thought it was! yay!! this is both a celebratory and weary steep, as I’ll be talking to my advisor in a couple of minutes; wish me luck!
Preparation
had a terrible night of sleep (yay nightmares!) so this is a necessity
the next couple of weeks are going to be HARD (I want to send my thesis to my supervisor before going off to Paris), so don’t be surprised if I spam my notes with black tea !
Preparation
Wishing you all the luck to send thesis on time and have fun in Paris :) Lots of tea shops there, but psst, I haven’t said anything, right?!
I stayed home to work today, but yesterday’s holiday made my brain really slow. I decided to have some tea but genuinely did not know what could help. Then I remembered I had some rou gui that I got for gong fu purposes and thought… what if I used my metal infuser and a mug instead of my gaiwan? Could that make gong fu easier for slow brain days? That way I can keep the tea coming!
well, after a full mug and a half, I can tell you that it worked like a charm :)
I am vicariously enjoying the anticipation of finishing and being free,Free, FREE!
Woo vacation! You can do it!
Definitely vacation will be a great reward! You can do it! I have finished my undergrad and no intention to go through all of it again!
