dear journal i'm having taiwan adventures already
grandma and roger took me to a traditional tea house yesterday
the building was beautiful and the tea was delicious
i liked drinking tea made from tea leaves instead of tea bags
i also liked the blood rice cake it was yummy
grandma told me about other tea houses she has been to
she has lived in taiwan for 50 years so she's been to a lot of tea houses
a really exciting thing happened at the tea house a customer jim
said that derek our server spilled hot tea on him and burned him
but jim didn't act like he was in pain also if jim's skin were burned it should
be red and hot his arm was wet but not red
so i knew he lied then we checked jim's table
his pot of tea was almost full and we found a half empty water bottle
jim must have poured the water on himself
we found out that jim is jealous of derek
jim wanted derek's job but the boss hired derek instead of jim
