Tired Normal Day

Rainy, rainy, and rainy. Even Ivan mentioned he hasn't seen this much rain his whole trip through Asia. I sometimes like rain, it can be peaceful and calming, but this much rain is just depressing to me. I like the sun. I find when it rains I have a harder time waking up. Is this true for anyone else? Though I'm not a morning person that's for sure.

Ivan should be leaving today, I was a bit late for work staying up late last night and got my excercise running the stairs at the MTR station. I've been trying the different types of transportations to find the quickest and cheapest way to work. So far from North Point to Tin Hau the cheapest is tram>number 10 bus>MTR>then other buses. The tram is always $2 HKD and it runs along the main road. Timing wise they aren't all the much different except I live pretty much across the street from the MTR station. The only thing is that instead of walking around to the street I have to down several levels to get to the platform. The MTR seems the best way to go right now though, it is quick and comfortable. It cost me $3.8 HKD one way to Tin Hau station. I cooked dinner again at home for my roommate. This time it was based on Gary's famous pineapple chicken. I bought a Papaya by accident and I'm not sure what to do with it, I thought it was a mango. Oh well, I think they enjoyed the linquine more the first time and they made some comments about my chicken being too plain. Better luck next time, I still thought it tasted pretty good. I had an assitant cook this time, my roommate's cousin. He's a traditional Chinese medicine type of guy so he has been reluctant to try my meals. Now that he's cooking for me I might have some better luck in converting him to the dark side of the force. If he only knew the power of the dark side ...
