77 Tasting Notes
friend (well, sister-in-law) gifted me this tea bag, as she knows I adore berry teas
once upon a time, this was my favorite tea, but now it brings me back to a bad relationship
it’s hard to drink, however, I can’t let him take this away from me
so, here’s to linking this tea to new memories!
the weather may be really nice outside, but my colleagues made the lab feel like the arctic, so… earl grey to warm up!
(I literally have chicken skin right now, but I also forgot to bring a jacket :D )
Preparation
made this to sip on while giving my thesis one last look through before handing it back to my advisor before leaving for Paris!
the weather is really nice, sunny and slightly warm (yesterday it got HOT, we went up to 28C!)
it feels weird to be almost done with my thesis; on one hand, it is my own flesh and blood and i love it so very dearly; on the other, it is a monster I created, as though I’m frankenstein and this is my monster, it has ruined my life, it is an aberration, and i hate it with every bone in my body
Preparation
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!
