Getting things sorted.  
Today I:
- organised to have two days a week at HN, which is a great relief
- had lunch with Rage
- splurged at The Tea Centre ($17 is totally reasonable)
- made an executive decision not to attend Japanese
- realised just how much I have to do over the next fortnight

Seriously, the tea smells amazing. Even [info]alleyne thought so, and she doesn't drink tea. I picked up fifty grams each of Stockholm Blend (black tea w/ orange, vanilla, apricot, rose, safflowers and calendula), Japanese Lime Green (green tea w/ daisies, lemon and lime peel), and Apple Pie (black tea w/ caramel, almond, cinnamon and apple). The Stockholm Blend in particular smells fucking amazing; I passed it around class this afternoon and we all moaned happily at it. XD

Tonight I Must:
- clean my desk
- vacuum

- write a good 2k of AtM, if not 6k PFFFYEAH TRY 1k o-or 200...
- print drafts for critique tomorrow morning PFFFYEAH
- go to bed by 10pm PFFFYEAH
- do not spend all night brewing your new tea
- do not spend all night playing keyboard


[EDIT]

Stockholm Blend may actually be Jesus. I think I brewed this particular cup a little weak, but holy shit. <3 Sweet and fruity and delicious and interesting and fadsnxjvhfdlvdfjhhgsdjfg. ♥ ♥ ♥ Can I have a Bachelor of Tea? Is that possible? Because, seriously. (I should start looking for jobs in the tea industry. It would be awesome.)

The smell of tea quite literally sets off my gag reflex, but, you make it sound delicious and I'm almost tempted to give one of those a shot.

Some of the stronger black teas, unbrewed, do that to me, too. It's dead leaves, I think, and recoil. XD But this one... it's so colourful, before and after brewing. It looks and smells like potpourri! :D

It's in the Brisbane Arcade, where the Darrell Lea shop is.

Like I said, you can just put it in a bowl and use it as potpourri. XD
