With formula one starting November 19th, Max Verstappen is having a tire-spinning 2023 in Formula One, with a record 17 Grand Prix wins, including a stunning 10 in a row.

Verstappen is the sport's hotshot, with his no-nonsense style and laser focus on winning. In 2016, Verstappen became the youngest and first dutch driver to win a F1 Grand Prix, at the age of only 18!

Leading up to each race, Verstappen and his Red Bull Racing Team are always on the go from event to event. One recent event had a nice little touch - the organizers added in some child-like fun for the racing team, setting up a track on a grass field for Verstappen and his team to race remote-controlled trucks.

The idea behind this was to invoke a bit of friendly competition, but it almost immediately turned into a race to see who can inflict the most damage to the other trucks.

Even during these remote-controlled races, Verstappen looked for an edge over his competition. He even stood on a van to get better positioning (so he could view more of the track).

All in all, he's all about the race, leaving no room for distractions, and he's shifting Formula One into high gear!

It's all about turning that tangled mess into a knot-so-complicated masterpiece and we have you covered here! Learn how to tie a bowtie in 3 minutes.

Health and wellness has come a long way in the last year! Here are some 2024 trends that we'll be trying out:

-Virtual workouts: These have become increasingly popular since the lockdowns during the pandemic. From Peleton to TIkTok lives, there are endless options to WFH (workout from home)!

-Alcohol-free: Each year more and more people are becoming "sober curious". Here at the Weekly Tea, we definitely have our fair share of cocktails and cold snacks. This January, we are planning to attempt Dry January for the first time.

Some people are even starting to cut out coffee as well. Now, this isn't "all in a days work", so we'll be taking it one step at a time to live healthier. Read more here

This social media trend involves a sequence of three consecutive photos with text overlays. It starts with an image of the person, along with the question "What does NGL mean?" (NGL stands for "Not Gonna Lie").

The second picture answers the question with "Not gonna..." and maintains a playful or casual tone. The third image typically features an attractive or stylish shot, and the text accompanying it might be something like "Need us in your life" or a witty, humorous message.

This trend blends curiosity, humor, and self-expression to engage and entertain followers on platforms like Instagram and TikTok, creating a fun and interactive way to connect with their audience.
