1. There are too many teas to choose from

Too late at night for mint, too early for chamomile, lavender will put me to sleep, but black tea will keep me up, but… It’s too hard to decide!

2. You want to buy too many infusers

3. When the water’s not getting hot

You’ve let it steep, it smells so good, but after your first sip half an hour after you poured it, you can’t taste anything because you just burnt off all of your taste buds.

5. Forgetting about your cup while it’s cooling down

It’s all fun and games until you drip hot tea from your tea bag on your lap.

7. When the price of all your tea is more than your paycheck

It’s so easy to over spend on tea! It smells so good!

8. Everyone thinks you’re trying to be posh

Unless you’re trying to be Professor Tralawny and read your future, leaves in your cup just sucks. No one likes a crunchy drink.

10. When your cup is empty

 I'm currently a junior at Millersville University with a major in International Studies and German and a minor in Government and Political Affairs. Outside of Her Campus I am invovled with Student Government, Society for International Human Rights, and German Club. When I somehow miraculously have free time I usually spend it being a total geek: gaming, watching youtube, watching netflix, you get the gist. Besides all that I also enjoy being creative in a variety of mediums as well as ice skating. I'm looking forward to the next few years at MU and I can't wait to see where it will all take me!
