Is changing jobs common in your country? I've been working in the same company for over 10 years. I think I'll be with the company until the official retirement age. When I talk about that to people from abroad, they're often surprised. Actually, the lifetime employment is still common in Japan. Here, it would be really difficult to change jobs if you're over 35 years old. What do you think about it? How about your country? Thank you.

What am I looking forward to I haven't seen my close friend lately because we both have been busy. Almost always she takes me out, but we haven't (even?) kept in touch for a while. She and I love to go driving to enjoy beautiful scenery, eat delicious foods, and chat at a cafe. She always drives when we hang out. We both can drive and have own cars, though. Honestly, I don't like to drive much. Anyway, it's autumn. It's season when scenery is awesome, foods are awesome, and weather is good. It's a perfect time to go driving and walk around. Today, I asked her to hang out in the near future. That's what I'm looking forward to. Actually, I've been bit feeling down lately, and I suddenly found myself enjoying alone without seeing my friends. I noticed that's because I felt down. Friends are important.

Today Today was an emotionally draining day. I don't know why. Maybe because of my work. I have to be polite to our customers all day. Of course I understand the importance of politeness in customer service. But, sometimes, it's hard to be polite. Especially today, it's exhausting... I hope it will be a good day tomorrow.

Taking a nap after having a lunch I do office work in a company. Basically, I live a regular routine life, and sleep for about 6 hours almost everyday. However, I was always sleepiest around 2 in the afternoon. I might eat too much for lunch. Lately, I've been taking a nap for 15 minutes after having a lunch. I feel it's good routine for me because I'm not sleepy around 2. Today, I didn't take a nap. Then, I couldn't stop yawning in the afternoon. What a surprise!
