I LOVE QUICKLYS!!! Even though I only like the regular milk tea drink and it's all I ever order.

And I hate the tapioca/boba so I always pass on that. They get so chewy and annoying in my mouth when I just want to enjoy the actual liquid content of the drink. People think I'm weird for ordering it without the tapioca, especially my white friend who ONLY orders hers with the BIG BALLS.

My mom is basically the same way. She always thinks that the people I IM are pedophiles when they're not; they're my best friend and schoolmates. -_-

Haha, would you like to join the club?
I'm another person who think that's weird. If you just want milk tea, don't spend $2+ a cup each time. You should just buy a package of Lipton teabags and make your own for a lot cheaper.

Hahha, suuuuuuuure! Woot woot, club member status yay!
Oh, my mom makes regular milk tea for me all the time with the teabags and she adds sweet milk or something and it tastes really good.

But the Quicklys milk tea just has a different taste, but i really like it, that's why I keep going there haha. And the regular milk tea only costs about $1something and my dad buys it for me a lot sooo I'm happy.

More than a waste of money, my parents think I'll get fat off of it.
Too bad they can't tell I already have.

Awww, 4+ years? I don't think it's as bad until you get really really close. Then it's like WHY DO I HAVE TO STAY HERE FOR ANOTHER YEAR/THREE MONTHS?!?!?!
I'm kind of torn, though. I'm not sure if I can survive without my parents to cook and clean and do laundry for me. XD

yeah, 4 years or so. i'm only (almost) 14 and i got a long way to go! but yeahh, i guess you're right. my brother was waiting such a long time to get out of the house (he's out now) but he said it felt like ages when he graduated to finally get out.
&yeah, i'd have to agree. D: i love my parents for that but if they would like..let me go. haha almost all my brothers and sisters have moved out and my mom still nags them to do stuff XD

I bet he gets bubble tea more often than I do.

But to answer your question, there are a bunch of places! At the most popular mall here where I live, there are at least 3/4 places that sell bubble tea. It helps that a large percentage of the population is Asian lol

I'm more of a local shop kind of customer (in the States anyway), so I've never really heard of these other huge chains that you guys are talking about (Quickly's, Ten Ren etc). >_<; Are they all over the place?

I wish the boba shops in New York had better names. I mentioned this before you joined the club, but the only interesting one is Uwie Uwie. ._. Sweetheart Cafe sounds so...lovely.
I think Quickly might have more stores in SoCal. There seem to be quite a few in San Francisco, though:
