On a number of occasions I’ve mentioned something about a tea seminar. It was an assignment I headed this past week to teach a class about tea to a group of power bloggers. Although little in comparison to everything else I’ve done at my job, it was my first solo “gig,” so it felt huge! To be honest, I had no interest in giving a seminar, but I agreed to take on the optional project because I personally wanted to learn more about tea. Haha, it was a bit selfish in some ways, but I think that it actually made me work harder; make it something better than if I had just thought of it as extra work (which it totally was!). Because it was a side project, I had to prepare for it mostly on my own time and during the weekends, but it was totally worth it. I’m nowhere near to being a tea expert, but I feel like I definitely got the basics down. And plus, I never knew teaching could feel so rewarding!
