Day 5: Pizza Day

Thursday, May 12, 2011
Dad didn't have treatment today.  Biopsy report will be released on Monday according to Dr. Chen and company. 

My sister and I went out and checked the stores around the hospital.  Good thing we were able to find a store where we can buy cheap, but good food.  Later that day, Loren from Rm 601, came over to say hi.  Then we (Loren, my sister and I) decided to go to a nearby mall, which was in a densely populated area, and had dinner at Pizza Hut.  Ahhh... It's  nice to get a taste of civilization again.  Hehe... 


When we ordered our food, we spoke to the waitress in halting English. Just to make sure that she understood us, we used what we tried to pass of as sign language.  She got the food part of our order right, but when it came to our drinks, it took a bit more effort.   All we wanted was honey to make our tea sweeter, since it was quite bland.  But she didn't understand what we're trying to tell her, so we changed it to sugar.  First, she brought salt.  Then she brought parmesan cheese!

Parmesan cheese with iced tea?

Duh???

Finally, she came back with two sachets of sugar. Yes! We thanked her and happily enjoyed our meal.

Anyway, today was a pretty good day.  Thank you, Lord!

Total bill as of today: ¥27,472.89 ($4,222.37).
