FEELING: Sore in my leggies…

This entry will be pretty short since nothing crazy happened today, but stay tuned because tomorrow I have another field trip and it’s supposed to typhoon.

I went to class today and tried my very best to stay focused but alas I am still Nova Gomez. After class I got another massage at a different parlor and it was sooo awesome but I’m a tad bummed I couldn’t practice my Chinese. See, the masseuse was a 20 something man, not an auntie in her 50s, which meant he was not nearly as charismatic or willing to talk. BUT! It was super relaxing and was only $25 USD for a 70 min full body massage so I’d consider that a win.

After that I got some omurice at a nearby store, went to a Taiwan Daiso for washi tape then headed home and took a nap. We got rotary sushi at Kura sushi and I tried the Taiwanese custard cake and it was amaaaaazing. Then I got home and did homework for the rest of the night.

Yep! Pretty chill. Pictures tomorrow!
