Janelle thought she was about as relaxed and clear headed as she was going to get. Just then, Professor Yoon called time and it was on to the main activity. When the information for the activity appeared on the board, Janelle added it to her notes. Then it was time to get started.

Janelle picked up her tea cup and carried it over to the cauldron containing hot water. She filled her cup the required 3/4 full and returned to her seat. Placing the cup back on its matching saucer, she retrieved the necessary tea leaves. Janelle added the leaves to her hot water and proceeded to wait. She didn't really like her tea to be very strong. Now that was a question she should have asked. How does the amount of time you let the tea brew, affect the outcome of the reading? Oh well, she'd let it sit the recommended 2-3 minutes, preferably two.

When she thought the tea was ready, Janelle added some sugar to it. She could tolerate sugar free hot tea if she had too, but since sugar wouldn't affect the results.......she'd go with the sweetness. Checking the instructions again, Janelle waited for the tea to cool enough for her to drink.
