The Day After a Typhoon

Had 1.5 days off from work due to typhoon Aere. Don't know if I should be glad or what. I was happy I got 1.5 days to be wasted. The first day I pretty much played an online game, ate, and slept. I was proud of myself that I played an online game for like, 10 hours straight. This was my first online game. I never liked computer games. Thought it's not my type. But I guess I just didn't meet my right type. This one, I got to play with my bf, and it's nice that you got someone to play with.

The second day, which was yesterday, more boring stuff. Since we went to bed at 3:00AM, we slept 'til noon. And since the typhoon was kinda serious yesterday, we didn't go far. Zach wanted to be adventurous, so we dressed in raincoats and went out in heavy rain and strong wind. I almost got knocked up once by the strong wind.

It's really nice that we got extra days to waste.

What's not nice is the damage all over Taiwan. People lost homes and lives. I'm glad that I live in a pretty safe place. The only damage at home was that my sister's window was broken due to the strong wind. But the window had a crack in it, so that's the reason it was broken so easily. My parents didn't discover it 'til her room was flooded. They spent a lot of time cleaning it up. Besides this, everything was fine.
