As a full-time student, I have relied on caffeine to get through the day quite a bit. The first two years of college I drank coffee because that’s what everyone was doing. I grew tired of having coffee everyday rather quickly, but I knew I needed something. One day I went to the usual coffee shop my friends and I go to before our morning classes and they were advertising their new menu item: tea . I never thought of tea as a drink I would like but I decided to order it anyways.
They had so many new flavors, but I decided to get the honey mint green tea. Anxious to see if I liked it or not, they called my name a few minutes later and I took my first sip. My whole morning routine has officially changed! Tea is my new go-to early morning drink. The next few times I went to the local coffee shop, well coffee and tea shop now, I kept trying new flavors to see which ones I liked best. Between blood orange, very berry, lemon strawberry, honey mint, watermelon, and chia, they all seemed to taste very good. But if I had to choose, Honey mint green tea and chai tea are my two favorites!
I sometimes get tea twice a day, but I try my best to only go once! Lately, the local coffee shop introduced us to another new menu item: Avocado toast! This is the reason I sometimes have to stop in twice a day….I feel healthy and it definitely fills me up. I have tried avocado toast in the past and fell in love with it, but it was not at my convenience to go get it. Now that I have it down the street from my apartment, I find myself there a lot more often. Yes, the baristas have memorized my order and no, I do not plan on changing it anytime soon.
My friends who go to other universities, have the same problem of getting tired of their usual morning cups of joe. Last time I went to get tea, I brought along some Penless stickers to share my life 
changing drink order with my friends. They all were very interested in my new way to caffeinate for the day so they gave it a try. Most of them had the same experience I had, they fell in love with tea just like me! But one of the people I had the hardest time convincing was my roommate.
One day I decided to order an extra cup of tea so I can surprise my roommate. I attached a Penless sticker on the cup and once she would scan it, it was a video of me saying “This is for a quali-tea friend!” She ended up really liking it but liked the video even more. She said that not only did the thought of bringing her tea make her happy but the video definitely made her day.
I was so excited that she liked the Penless sticker I put on the cup so I gave her a few to try out. She made so many videos and attached them to Penless stickers to send back home to her family! Little did I know, she ended up buying Penless stickers in all different designs! She sent bought me a cup 
of tea the next day with a Penless sticker attached and it said, “Hey! Thanks for helping me join the Penless communi-tea!” Now that is my cup of tea!
