Rainy Monday

I got up at 8 o'clock to get ready for the online reading class of NHK Easy Japanese news from 8:30 till 9:30. We talked about a recent Unicef's survey on Children's happiness among 36 OECD and EU countries. Japan ranked No.1 in physical health, but ranked 32 in mental health. For the second half of the class, we practiced singing two Japanese songs together. https://www3.nhk.or.jp/news/easy/ne2025051512144/ne2025051512144.html

I wrote the weekend excursion to the south till 12 noon. I bought 6 meat buns for NT$90 at a newly opened shop on DaFeng Road, and ate one of them for lunch with slice cucumber. After lunch, I had a cup of coffee and a piece of cake I received from the organizer of the class reunion before we got off the chartered bus at the Chia-yi High Speed Rail Station.

At 2 o'clock, I took Bus 909 to DaAn Fitness Center to exercise for one and a half hours. Then I took Bus 650 to JingXin Library to collect the one Manga and 3 DVDs of Demon Slayer. I took an one hour nap before dinner.

We had flat rice noodles for dinner. I added the flat rice noodles to the leftover soup from YingBing Restaurant yesterday evening. YingBing is located in BuDai close to my parents-in-law's house in PuZi. We used to go there when my parents-in-law were still alive. My huband made me a glass of Papaya milk for dessert after dinner.

At 10 o'clock I felt so sleepy, I had an urge to go to bed. But I watched one DVD of Demon Slayer to keep me awake. I found the story interesting, and I watched the animation in Japanese without subtitles. As I already knew the storyline, the conversation among the protagonists was easy to understand. It is a good training for listening comprehension in Japanese.
