I went late night beverage drinking with 3 friends yesterdae at Holland Village. When we reached there, all the pubs were so packed that we decided to stop by Coffee Bean instead to have a drink. 3 of us drank tea while the birthdae girl drank coffee. Haha it looked quite like a SDU date coz 2 of us guys sits next to 2 girls, and we talked of changing seats after some time because the air con is cold. We took interesting pictures of the tea and now I am too lazy to post them up, maybe next time. We drank strange tea, or rather to me…. One contains rosebuds, the other strawberry and finally I would add the disgusting peach. Peach is usually nice in most occasion, and the name “Peach Garden” suggest a nice tea. But just like Forest Gump said, “you never know what you gonna get.”

People are like teabags. You have to put them into hot water before you can know how strong they are.

I used to love to drink coffee a lot, but I have grown over the years to have an inclination towards hot tea, and cold coffee. Hot tea seems to give you that scent of aroma that will lift your spirits. It often leaves you feeling refreshed, rather than the ability to keep you artificially awake by coffee. But then again I really dun have much bias against coffee, I drink both as well. But just that the next time I am asked coffee, tea or me, I will still reply just tea, not coffee nor me….

A Cup Of Tea

When the world is all at odds
And the mind is all at sea
Then cease the useless tedium
And brew a cup of tea.
There is magic in its' fragrance,
There is solace in its' taste;
And the laden moments vanishSomehow into space.
And the world becomes a lovely thing!
There's beauty as you'll see;
All because you briefly stopped
To brew a cup of tea.
