You'll Be Surprised By This Tea

Everybody has their own way of making tea, but one way is clearly the most superior. It's like comparing drinking water - sure, pool water is water, but would you rather drink diluted bleach water or a cool bottle of Fiji? In the same vein, although several options of tea exist, why drink the horrible kind when you could drink the best?

First of all, avoid iced tea at all costs, especially sweet iced tea. If you want cold tea, put it in the refrigerator. You're just getting scammed if you want to pay for frozen water, which will eventually melt and make your perfectly good tea bland. The only reason to avoid sweet iced tea is so that you don't get stereotyped as Southern - but maybe you want to be, in which case, order away.

Any kind of tea that Starbucks sells is again, automatically canceled. Save your five dollars for something better than overpriced bitter water. And lastly, any tea that comes from a bag is also automatically canceled, simply because it isn't classy enough.

So, what kind of tea should you drink? Loose leaf, obviously. Served hot. Specifically, chai, and specifically extremely milky and sugary. This is for added health benefits. Milk will strengthen your bones more than tea without milk will, which will likely help prevent your chance of developing osteoporosis. Sugar will give you a rush of energy, which you can then harness to exercise.

Many people look down on those who drink tea with a lot of milk. These people probably have broken a bone, if not several bones, before. On the other hand, I drink my tea with plenty of milk, and I have never broken a bone. Sugar is also essential to a balanced diet - even fruits contain sugar. Certain vegetables contain sugar as well, if not all. I have eaten fruit and vegetables, but I enjoy drinking tea more. Those against sugared tea simply enjoy drinking things that don't taste good, or perhaps they have never eaten a fruit or vegetable before. One could argue that a cup of tea is like eating salad - after all, tea comes from leaves.

In conclusion, your tea must be loose leaf, chai, milky, and sugary. It cannot be iced or sweet - there is a clear distinction between sweet tea and sugary tea that is profound and deep. Would you rather eat a salad or drink tea? Would you rather break your legs or not break them? The answers to these questions will lead to the clearly superior answer.

beer on the beach

Summer is hot and humid, and it's almost like summer was made specifically to drink the refreshing, cold, crisp wonderful, delicious, nutritious nectar of the gods.

Anyone who was born and raised in New Jersey (or anywhere really) knows of Bruce Springsteen, whether or not they like him is a whole other situation. I hope that his hundreds of classic rock songs and famous high energy performances, even in his sixties he can put on better concerts than people half his age, are at least recognizable to people of all ages. Love him or hate him (I identify with the former) you have to admit that some of his songs and interviews have inspirational quotes and lyrics.

New England Summers Are The BEST Summers

Why you should spend your next summer in New England.

Marconi Beach

Three years ago, I chose to attend college in Philadelphia, approximately 360 miles away from my small town in New Hampshire. I have learned many valuable lessons away from home, and have thoroughly enjoyed my time spent in Pennsylvania. One thing that my experience has taught me, however, is that it is absolutely impossible to beat a New England summer.

You cannot beat the beach. Believe it or not (which many people may not), New England has a long and beautiful coastline. Most of my high school summers were spent sitting on the Wall at Hampton Beach, getting sunburnt and eating Acai bowls from The Secret Spot. The Wall was the place to be both during the day and at night. We begin our days there with a KB's bagel and coffee, and end them with pizza and ice cream. It’s not a New England summer without that 4 p.m. text from someone, “Who wants to meet at the Wall tonight?” Nighttime is for Tripoli’s Pizza, the sound of waves, and wishes on shooting stars. Wednesday nights are especially important, as those are the nights that Hampton Beach sets off the weekly firework display.
