Finally a real dinner

8:59 pm. It's so nice to see my laptop got charged, so nice to see that Alice's place is fine and dandy, and so nice to have a real dinner.

I wasn't feeling well when I woke up this morning, mostly because of the breezing temperature. It's a bit too chilling to me. I stayed in bed until 10 am. Our Manager Eric sent us a manage about shooting for getting back to work on Thursday, but that still dependent of the power supply. Personally I can't wait getting back to work.

Then I had another Instant Soup as lunch. The instant Soup tasted nice when I first had it on Saturday noon, but by Monday noon, I already started feeling sick of it. Still, I forced myself to finish it, with a banana and an apple.

I continue my sketching study after lunch, and practiced guitar on and off. Somehow I didn't feel like I had enough energy. I felt like my head was a bit aching.

To ease my pain, I read Rumiko's comics "Mermaid Forest". I couldn't believe that I almost forgot the story. Plus this time I read it from a learning perspective, trying to see how she defined the layout of each scene, how she set up each character.

Then Alice called. She got electricity, and she suggested me to get to her place to charge up devices, plus she has a computer that has some problem. So I went there fixing her computer while charging my stuff. A phone call came. Emily and Roy asked for some help of distributing food at the senior center. But by the time Alice and I got there, they already finished the job, I told them that I would come to help tomorrow, and maybe the day after if I can find gas pump to fill up my car.

Alice was told my a friend that there's one Chinatown restaurant opened, so we went there to have our dinner. After have so many days of jams, banana and canned instant soap, this dinner tasted much better than delicious, no to mention that shrimp is always my favorite dish.

We ordered some dishes for to-go and brought then to Emily's place. Like us, they enjoyed some real dinner with rice and chicken. At the same time I had great time playing with their dog Penny. He's such a cute and sweet puppy, so eager for attention.

By the time I got back to Alice place it's 8:40 already. So I rushed back home because the 9 o'clock curfew started. I arrived home at 8:50 pm.

And so here I am, have my laptop fully charged. Maybe I should go to Alice's place to send some emails and charge my devices again. We'll see.

In the meantime let me play some guitar in the dark.
