Today began with a jactitation. Waking up 3 or 4 times a night, I did not know why.
At the class, Vicky told me she was worrying about the furniture in her new rented room. She bought a lot of furniture from IKEA whose products needed to be assembled by the customer himself. As a little girl, she could not know how to assemble. So I told her I could do her a favor. She was surprised by joy. We met at 2:30 after the grammar class, and we went to buy some necessary hardware. When I stepped into the new rented room, I was a little surprised by a great amount of the furniture. Two huge packages were laying in the middle of the antechamber. Many other packages were laying dispersedly around the room. It seemed that I would have a lot of work to do.
Vicky went to class, leaving me to handle them. She wanted to set up the bed first, so I found out the three packages. Honestly, they were so heavy that I moved them using all-out effort. Removing the packing, putting the materials in an approximate place, I perspired insensibly. The next procedure was to locate the materials and turn the screws tight. It was a little difficult to handle a big piece of furniture for one man, but I have done it finally. When I dragged the 80 lbs mattress onto the bed, I used one and a half hour to complete assembling a queen-size bed.
When I was dealing with the sofa, Vicky came back from class. She bought me two pieces of pizza and a bottle of fresh fruit. That was very kind of her. I did not want to get any return. I just wanted to do something to keep my hands-on ability. I should appreciate Vicky gave the chance.
