Unproductive English Class

I went to a udon noodle shop, but it was closed, so I went to a ramen shop called Tanshoko. It was my second time visiting there, but I confirmed that I did not like the atmosphere, regardless of its reputation for good taste. When I was leaving, I accidentally poured a glass of water over myself. Sucks! On my way back home, I met my mother. She was also going to the same ramen shop. It was a day when I had an English class. I stopped by a bookstore in Alpark. They have many nice and affordable books. I bought three kinds of books. I attended an English class at 7 pm. This time, there was only one other student, including me. He was a high school student, and his English level was not very high. Therefore, the content of the lesson was quite easy and boring for me. I thought that when I returned to Japan, I should choose private lessons. I visited the bar Torisen. The bar owner showed me a Queen of the Night flower that was growing in his neighbor’s barber shop. He wondered if the flower would open that night. I moved to my hometown and visited my regular bar, Tachimachi-ya. I met Dai-chan, Kurume-san, and other familiar customers. I met a woman called Yuka-san who runs her own hair salon. She had a lot of complaints and problems with her work environment. We all laughed a lot at her frank and straightforward conversation. I went to bed just after midnight, but I could not fall asleep. I read books for an hour or so. Strangely, I woke up four or five times to go to the restroom on this unusual night.
