U is for…Uncle Iroh

Today is crazy busy because I have an exam tomorrow morning and I literally only started studying for it today at like 11. The apathy is real my friends. Alas, have to push through 2 more final exams and provided I pass them all, I will be done law school! Of course that also means I get to study for the exams of all exams, the bar exams in June…That’s a problem for another day though…

This tea is cold and floral. I have one serving left and will write a proper note when I have that.

That’s fantastic! You are so close, congrats! What kind of law are you going to practice?
I studied to be a paralegal for a while and was hoping to work in family law.

Before I went to school, I did a Law Clerk program and worked at an immigration law firm for a couple years. I am doing my articling at the firm. I am not sure if that is what I want to do forever but I have enjoyed it. I also have really enjoyed Wills and Estates law.

I loved learning Family and Criminal Law and was pretty good at both but I don’t think I want to be in court/negotiations that much.

I feel you! I am pretty much same. Of course, no bar exams here :) but finals for sure. I have 5 exams left.

I imagine immigration law would be pretty chill.
It’s so strange that our laws have become so complex that lawyers often find one or two types of law to practice instead of being a jack of all type profession.

My cupboard has grown exponentially since joining this site and I have a lot to share. Feel free to snoop through my cupboard and message me if anything interests you – I am always happy to swap!

For me, flavored teas are definitely my sweet spot. I will most often reach for black teas and rooibos or honeybush blends but I do keep some flavored whites and greens around for when the mood strikes. I have a few herbals/tisanes but most of the time I find myself disappointed by them as they often smell deliciously sweet and then end up tasting tart/sour. I have a little bit of an aversion to pu’erh and oolong teas. I am also wary of florals, earl greys, and chai teas. I do not like overpowering citrus flavors nor do I usually like hibiscus, licorice or chamomile. I love dessert teas – caramel, vanilla, toffee, cookie, cream, and other sweet flavors make me smile. Fruits like strawberry, peach, mango, and pineapples will often catch my attention as well.

I have also realized that although I really enjoy adding frothed milk to some of my teas, if I do not like the tea with zero additives (just in plain water without milk or sugar), I probably won’t drink it. The one exception is flavored matchas which I will happily drink in cold milk if I do not like it mixed with hot water. My theory is if the tea can’t stand on its own then it is not for me and I will more than likely try to swap it out for something else.

Tea Ratings Guide (as of December 10, 2017)
90-100 Teas I NEED on hand at all times
80-89 Teas I want to keep around for a cup every now and then
70-79 Teas I am glad I have around and can experiment with but probably don’t need more than what’s in my cupboard
60-69 Teas I would not turn down a cup of from a friend but that would probably be enough
50-59 Teas I can see why someone would enjoy but are not for me
Under 50 Teas I really did not like and most likely got dumped
