Dating sucks in Japan

Japan is a culture of busy bodies, I think. Everybody is in a rush to go somewhere. Advanced booking is generally a must. It is very common to schedule a meeting with your friends a month in advance.   In Mongolia, it is unheard of to schedule a hangout. Usually, I would call up my friend and ask if they would like to go out or have coffee. It is very common to go over to my friend's place to hang out. Impromptu is everywhere.   So, because we are living in a scheduled society, dating sucks in Japan. Recently, a friend of mine recommended I open a Bumble account. I was hesitant at first because I had been catfished through a similar application. But I am giving it a try.   It is very weird to schedule a date a month in advance. Ok it is okay to schedule a date in a week or two, but a month advance feels weird. Also, I still feel hesitant to meet up because I am IMAGINING everything to go bad.

     Well, it is officially Christmas month.     I checked my blood glucose level this morning, it is within the normal range.      I started to rewatch Dr. Mindy Pelz. I love how she describes fasting and food. I stumbled upon Glucose Revolution . Dr.  Jessie InchauspĂ© explains how glucose works and when to eat.     Oh, I made this for my friend's daughter.     It is magnetic seasons. She can place the flowers, leaves and snow on the background. Hoping that she will like it and use it. I think that is it for now. See you in the next one.
