Because I had a part-time job at night, I had to eat dinner outside. Then, I ate two meals, lunch and dinner outside in a day. It was really troublesome for me to find an appropriate meal to eat and I had to guess twice in a day. First, the price was my primary condition to choose a meal. Although I was working and making money, I didn’t want to spend much money on eating. I was not fascinated by delicacy so I was not particular on food. I could accept tasteless food but with cheap price. Moreover, if I was not full by dinner, I could eat snacks at home after work.

If I wanted to find a low-priced meal, the choices must were few and limited. The average price range was up 40 NT dollars outside diners so the dished I ordered and the restaurants I went to were not various but fixed. As a result, I had to make variety from monotony. For example, I went to different diners and ordered different dishes or bought food from home to keep myself from having meals outside. Sometimes, I was tired of deciding which diner I went and which meal I ordered but I still had to feed myself to have energy to work. Now, fortunately I only need to worry about my lunch.

In this new semester, I choose weight control and training to be my physical class. Last semester, I chose badminton but for the new one, the teacher said she would teach us smash. I was not good at high skills so I quitted. Or badminton was really interesting. I choose the new class because someone said weight training was not so tired. Moreover, I do not need to go outside to be tanned. Using weight-training equipment looks cool. However, it is not so easy that I imaged.

One is the students are required to weigh in every PE class and we should record it. It is a small pressure for me because I need to notice the weight every time. As a result, I have to prevent my appetite from being over full. Even though I cut down the appetite, I still gain some weight and it really disappoints me. The other one is that besides the exercise we take in PE class, we still need to take two times 30 minutes exercise in a week. It is the most troublesome part and I have to spend some time taking exercise. Before taking this class, I only take exercise in PE class.

Although the PE class is troublesome, I want to be healthy. I am trying to adapt myself to the mode of taking exercise and I hope I will lose some weight in the end of
the semester.

The day was also my bad day because I was sick. After waking up, I got stomachache in the morning. I thought that I was too hungry and it would be better after I ate breakfast. However, my stomach was still hurting so I continued the tour with my ill body. I even throw up in the afternoon but it became better. On the way home, I was dizzy, uncomfortable and drowsy. I was afraid that I would get carsickness so I forced myself to sleep. It would not be better if I was dizzy when I was awake. Fortunately, people in the same tour only saw movies not sing karaoke in the bus. As a result, it was easy to lull myself to sleep or I would jump out of the window to get rid noise. Although I slept a lot, the ten-hour long journey to home was still intolerable. Nevertheless, I went through it. It was really fine to step on the solid ground.
Because of beautiful Meqmeqi, the tour to east Taiwan was still worthy. It was not a waste to spend nearly a day driving.
