After catching up with friends and family back home, I finished up my syllabi. I feel pretty proud of them and look forward to tomorrow.
Makenzi and I went to get some lunch (jianbing) and then Matt came over to talk about the Oral English class he and I have. After he left, I felt the great compulsion to clean. I mopped the floors, cleaned the whole kitchen and the bathroom. My bedroom was already clean, but I cleaned it again, just to make sure.
For dinner I am making zaru soba. Except I still do not have mirin or other Japanese spices, so the sauce will most likely be shoyu and sugar and a little salt. Here's to hoping it turns out ok.
I DID IT! Soba! My favorite! The sauce actually came out really good, even though I just guesstimated the amounts needed. The noodles taste like soba, but are a little different from the ones I am used to. Overall, a nice dinner before I start work!
