My Tea Cup

My Tea Cup

My tea cup - always with me during late hours.

"In 1853, India exported 183.4 tons of tea. By 1870, that figure had increased to 6,700 tons and by 1885, 35,274 tons. Today, India is one of the world's largest producers of tea with 13,000 gardens and a workforce of more than 2 million people." - Origins of Indian Tea

Morning Punches

Morning Punches

A morning to recall those old karate punches. It was way back in high school when my paternal cousins were so much engrossed with Aikido and Judo. I always watched them doing the punches, kicks and a lot of Judo techniques. Afterwards, my knuckles ended up bruised by the punching bag. Talk about sneaky boy. I did not know how to deal with the punching bag then.

Meal for a Kanji Long Quiz

I thought of this while flipping on my Kanji text book - for today's long quiz, hoping to at least familiarize almost 50 characters in just about 4 hours. Good thing, I did not fall asleep after taking my dinner.

Self Treat

Self Treat

Ok, call this a treat to myself after almost a week of harassing my microwave oven. The carrots and the cabbage were just perfectly crunchy. The poor salmon was speechless.
