I like to use hot-water bottle when I go to bed in winter. Warming up my body helps improve blood circulation and makes it easier to fall asleep😪

I like to prepare meat and fish in freezer bags with seasonings on weekends and freeze them. It makes preparing dinner during the week so much easier😊

I hiked up Mt. Daimonji in Kyoto the other day🏔️ The climb was tough for me, but the breathtaking panoramic view of the city from the top was amazing. My muscles were really sore the next day, though!

About ten years ago, when I was looking for a job, it was harder for new graduates to find jobs than it is now🧑🏻‍💼 These days, the working population is decreasing, and companies are short on manpower, so it’s easier for new graduates to get jobs.

It’s not good to speak badly about others or spread rumors. I try to stay away from people who always gossip. Sometimes, someone starts speaking badly about another person during a conversation. In that case, I try to change the topic, but sometimes it doesn’t work😅

Even on weekends, I feel like I should do housework if I have time to take a nap. I want to relax on my days off, but then I worry that the following week will be harder🙃

In Japan, tomatoes, cucumbers, and eggplants are in season in summer. Daikon radishes and Chinese cabbage are in season in winter. Pumpkins are delicious in autumn, and I like simmered pumpkin seasoned with soy sauce and bonito flakes😊

I tend to use my smartphone before going to bed. It’s hard to avoid using my iPhone because I can do almost anything on it, like reading the latest news, looking things up, and shopping online📱

I feel overwhelmed when I have too many things to do. Breaking tasks into small steps and finishing them one by one makes me feel better😎

Review📝
- Before I go grocery shopping, I usually write down what I need to buy in the Notes app on my iPhone.
