A Blissful Sunday

I woke up before seven, decided to go to DaAn Sports Center by Bus 909. According to the weather broadcast, it would rain today, but it was sunny at 7:40. The weather should be pretty much the same as  yesterday, sunny in the morning, but rainy in the afternoon.

I arrived at DaAn at 8:20, just to find all eight treadmills were occupied. I tried a few weight lifting facilities before I caught a vacant treadmill, I ran one and a half kilometers with the last five minutes at the speed of 5.0, while watching the final between Crystal Palace and Manchester City. Then I took a break to put on some essence on my face, because I believed the essence penetrated better when I perspired. Back to the fitness center, I tried a couple of weight lifting facilties before I got on another treadmill and ran for another one and a half kilometers. Running on the treadmill helped me build grit to stay healthy and live to 120. I felt good and refreshing after I shampooed my hair in the cold shower.

For lunch, we had the leftover lunchbox from yesterday. I took a one hour nap and rode my bike to the Eslite Bookstore, just to find my secret corner was occupied by a mother and a daughter. I read a Korean textbook for one hour, and went downstairs to find a quiet corner near the front gate area to read the book about Korean culture I brought with me for another hour before I rode bike back home. Nothing could be better to have have a great shopping mall in the neighborhood.

On my way back home, I stopped by a tea shop to buy a cup of Tapioca milk tea for NT$55. In Taiwan, it is blissful to indulge oneself by drinking a cup of tapioca milk tea, even though I know the sugary drink is linked with high risk of cardiovascular disease. I watched FB reels, including videos about English language learning and TED talks. It is fun to watch entertaining and educational reels at home when it rained outside with thuners from time to time.

At 6:30 I turned on the satellite TV BS1 to watch the Enka of the Day to get myself entertained before dinner. Gosh, it feels good to be able to comprehend a few foreign languages, so that I don't get bored watching various video in many different langages.

Before going to bed, I need to make some preparation for the Monday morning on-line Japanese class.
