Wednesdat lastday at the church



well, it wasn't supposed tobe the last day but ah well..
Got up around 7am. Had a shower to wake me up. Had a piece of bread. Their home phone rang. Dad was coming at 8am to pick me up. Yuj said he can speak English a bit so we can have a conversation. I asked him where he had been but after that I was so tired and fell asleep. I saw banana field from the highway. Took a photo of it to show my sister. She couldn’t find “Taiwanese banana” while she was in Taipei.
I explained to him why I was taking photos.
We got to the church before 9am, had an early start. Some people were already there.
They were working on the puzzle and sticking them together. Helped them a little bit then moved to the other table and started with the special piece for the church. I had to finish making it no matter what.
The ladies left around 11am.
I kept working until noon and then went to the stationery store to get a spray. I went to the casher to pay. There were some people in the queue. The girl said something to me but of course I didn’t understand. She was saying “please come around” to the other register.
Went to a convenient store to get some lunch but they didn’t have much.
When I went back to the church, no one was there. I had no time to waste.
C came a bit before 3pm followed by YC. They were saying that they have some kind of presentation. I wasn’t sure what it was for, though.

YC’s parents were there too. He was saying that he had to be there three times today. They wanted to have a group photo and I was asked to get in, too.
I was getting hungry a bit. More people came after 4pm.
They all helped me to finish everything. It was great to see them working together. some teenagers put them on the Christmas light YC got. It took long but looked great. There was a problem with one piece and it wasn’t blinking as it should be. C went out to get a light and the priest fixed it. great job.
This priest was getting into folding as well. They were saying that they would keep making it even after I leave.
Stayed there until 7pm then said good bye to everybody. Couldn’t believe that I was leaving,though.

Went to a night market to get some souvenirs. We ate dinner there, too. had noodles twice. I wanted to pay for them but it was impossible.
Got stone which glows in the dark. It was quite expensive and I wished that I had some more money.
They had interesting parking system. They park at the parking and some one checks who was there then they can pay at a convenience store etc, later. Sometimes no one checks so they don’t have to pay.
They got peal tea for me. I told them that I love it and often have it when I go to China town in Melbourne.
Got home and had to do my packing but my washing was still wet so I had to wait until in the morning. Talking to my sis on Skype and found out that I can text message to mobile phones in Japan. Why didn’t I try this when I got here..
YC had lost her folder and she was looking for it for a long time. C and YC were arguing. She thought it might be in my bedroom and looked for it too. It must have been very important.
I was spraying the piece outside of the apartment. There were emergency stairs so I did it there and left the window open cause it smells. Stayed up until 2am.
