5 Different Types Of Tea To Fit Your Mood

I am a tea drinker. As I have gone through college I have consumed more and more tea, up to three cups daily. You may think this is insignificant, or just personal preference, but I have found that different types of tea correlate with my mood, and make me happier and more relaxed in the long run. So here are the different types of tea that I have found to fit your mood.

1. Earl Grey.

Early Grey Tea is perfect for late night studying. Feeling the burn during finals? Get yourself a nice cup of Earl Grey with some cream and honey. It’s slightly caffeinated so you’ll be more focused as you finish your last term paper, but it also has a little bit of warm spice to relax you (and maybe make you feel a bit more British.)

2. Jasmine green.

Jasmine tea is soothing and if you add a little honey, it’s perfect for any time of day. To me, Jasmine tea is a happy sort of tea. It’s perfect for relaxing, studying, a girls night in or to take on your early morning commute to class. A great bonus is that it’s also good cold, so you don’t have to drink it right away.

3. Raspberry herbal.

Feeling summery? Raspberry Herbal tea is the perfect summer evening drink. Just get a mug, sit back, relax and enjoy this sweet, yet slightly bitter tea. Herbal teas are great because they aren’t caffeinated so you can have them at any time of day, morning or night.

4. Vanilla honey chamomile.

This chamomile tea is perfect if you are feeling sad or cannot sleep. It’s naturally sweet and it’s almost floral taste will calm you down and help you to clear your mind and relax. A cup before bed is perfect on those nights that you can’t quite turn your brain off.

5. Irish breakfast.

Need a pick me up in the morning, but coffee just isn’t your thing? Irish Breakfast tea is caffeinated, earthly and lovely with a splash of cream and honey. The name breakfast is in the title for a reason, this is the perfect pick me up before the final or last page of that paper.

“I say let the world go to hell, but I should always have my tea.” Fyodor Dostoevsky, "Notes from the Underground."

AI music threatens creativity

The Soul of Sound: How AI Challenges Human Expression in Music

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
