He's back. :-D

But I won't be meeting him till a few days later. Sigh. Oh well.

*sniffles alot, then moves on*

I did a few sketches some time back and my brother-in-law saw them, and was a little shocked by their standard. And by that I don't mean my work was bad, it was alrite, and he was shocked by the not-bad-ness. If you ask me, that's a whole other insult by itself. *rolls eyes*

That reminds me of that time when my family was visiting my Malaysian relatives...a year or so ago. My aunt(I think she's my aunt...or maybe she's a cousin-in-law of sorts) had made some black tea for us, and it tasted very marvy. It was a bit on the lighter side, which left no space for the sometimes unpleasant after-taste you get on your tongue when you drink strongish black tea, and it was sweetened to perfection. The perfect teh-o.

Ok, I know that's a lot to say abt teh-o, but really, it was good! I had 3 cups!!

So, anyways, everybody had the same sentiments, and we asked her what tea she used, to which she did not have an answer, as she doesn't know how to read english(that set of uncles/male cousins usually marry girls from india, mostly from villages). So we asked arnd and nobody new, cos they usually immediately transfer the tea-bags to air-tight containers. So we all went 'Hmmm...' and decided to wait for my favourite uncle who lives there too, my mom's cousin(ah, they're all my aunts and uncles, then!), to ask him what the damned tea was.

He came back, and he cld not for the life of him rmbr what tea he bought that month.

*rolls eyes*

He said he'd rmbr if he saw it, tho, and promised us a box of it.

A few weeks later, he visits us, bringing along with him a box of Lipton tea.

To say that my reaction was one big 'WTF!!!' wld qualify as a complete understatement.

Some of you shld know that I gravitate towards ceylon tea, as I think it is infinitely btr-tasting...in all ways. And I've nvr really been a fan of Lipton; the taste is ok...but it lacks relish...I find absolutely no oomph in it. But now that I've had Lipton tea prepared in a different and pleasing form, I'm now thinking, 'Wah, not bah ah?'

So, herein, I shall reveal the moral of the frikkin long story of the Lipton Tea Freak-Out Of Sorts.

Crap...what's the moral again?
