Taiwan Explores Day 8-9: Time to work!

Since its the first day of work, I have to change my body clock to wake up at 7am. Surprisingly I had no problems at all  because I was feeling excited. I was the first to leap out of bed while the rest of the family was still sleeping! Hohoho #achievement

After waiting for 哥哥 (my homestay mum's autistic kid) to wear his shirt neatly and shoes nicely and stuff, I wore my helmet and was ready to set off

 
-motorbike battle gear engaged-

It's really cool to ride on the back of the motorbike to work hahahaha! Everyone here seems to use motorbike. There's motorbike everywhere. Outside shops and houses etc, there would be rows of motorbikes all over. Needless to say, the roads here really stink of smoke... Feel like vomiting everything I smell the motorbike smoke. Eeks

I arrived at my workplace. It's pretty shabby and old looking. The smell from the kitchen is also pretty overwhelming. When I reached there, the autistic adults were already busy plucking the vegetables. I went to offer my help but soon to somewhat regret my decision hahaha. We were plucking the veggies OUTSIDE where it was freezing cold. My fingers soon went numb from the cold hahaha. I was just like thinking "faster pluck!!!"

Then..

"Meimei, ur breakfast arrived. Can go eat now" Relief poured over me. Never so happy to touch hot coffee! Hahaha. After breakfast, I went back to brave the cold and continued plucking veggie. The rest of the day was pretty slack. Since it was my first day, they all decided to let me watch them cook instead. I stood the whole day merely watching hahaha.

Then the most fun part of the day is when we have to rush the lunchbox packing. It's like quick put> arrange nice nice>next next! If you slow down then you will find more lunchbox waiting for you. What a rush:3 exhilarating! Always looking forward to this part of the day where it have official work to do. The rest of the day I'm just on standby, hoping there's stuff for me to do. 

Worse part of the day is the delivery time. I get incredibly carsick after 10mins of car ride... Sucks real bad. Digestive juices are just flipping all about..After the delivery I always have to get my little nap to get my stomach back to normal state

After delivery time i get 1hr plus to watch running man during out lunch and nap time. hahaha. As for my meals, I get to eat the leftovers after the packing. They all have similar taste... This v Taipei taste... I thinking I'm developing the Taipei breath already. Hahaha. On Friday when they gave me fish for dinner I was so happy!! FINALLY NO MORE CHICKEN! 

At around 3pm+ we get ready for second run of lunchbox packing. Meanwhile I will just nua at my table cuz I have wait for the kitchen to prepare the food.

That's pretty much it. 

TGIF,
Jojo
