Hey, going to a tea bar is a lot like going to a coffee shop, which is what my non-drinking/clubbing friends and I used to do quite often in both high school and university. I used to be a rather diverse person. Clubs (not the shit you see on MTV these days), the clubs I went to played "alternative" music... that one teen club I frequented had Jane's Addiction play before they hit it big... and I hung out at Denny's and Denny's-esque restaurants from midnight till dawn even when I was in high school (my Mom was so super-rad-cool when I was a teen!), and when beatnik style coffee shops started popping up (the first one I ever went to was in Santa Barbara, CA), my friends and I would go on occasion (I was a scholarship student at a very expensive private university, so I was usually the only poor kid in the group, and $94 $4 for a coffee was WAY out of my work-study budget >.< may as well have been $94 LOL I'm having problems with my phone, can you tell?). So, yeah, Denny's or a club on $1 drink night (or parties on campus) were usually my things.

I'm clinically depressed, so staying home and reading, while I do and did enjoy such things, were not good for me to do too often. I was always shy when I met new people, but once we got to know each other, I was always doing stuff with them. It kept my mind active and my depression (for the most part) at bay.

Whenever I was home on break, I would work 2 jobs to keep me occupied...and earn some cash for when I returned to school LOL
