Trying to be kind?!

  So, I had a flight out of Narita International Airport in a week. Then, I had someone ask a favor to bring some things to an event on the 13th. Based on the information that I received, they said it was food wrapping. So, I assumed it was compact food wrappings, thinking it was not a lot. So, trying to be kind, I said okay. Then the drama began.   They ordered the things they needed. One day, when I got home, there was a giant box full of rice ball packs. I was astonished. There were 1800 pieces in a giant box. I told them it was too big. It was over the size limit that airline companies stated.   So, I told them I needed to purchase a smaller box and pack them tightly so it all fits. So, I did, after consulting with them and deciding on the course of action. Then there were 7 bags left. So, I gave them to the friend of the person who asked the favor.   After everything was packed, he called and asked if I could bring all of it. In that moment, I wrote a rule in my...

It always feels sad to say goodbye.

     It always feels sad to say goodbye.       It has been almost a month since I came home. I helped my parents, especially my mom, move things and clean. My mom just started a tourist base an hour from the city center. There were a lot of things to do, specifically, little things that needed to be done. Then I became an inpatient at Bodi Setgelten (the one I was hospitalized back in May of this year). I spent 5 days and got home today. Now, I have a few more days before I go.       No matter how many times I have said goodbye to my family and friends, I always feel sad. Initially, I felt like crying. I cried once when I had to leave my 3-month-old brother. Even though I don't cry anymore, I always feel sad.       Back in May, I thought to myself that I needed to come back home at least once a year. It helps my sanity and physically ( I am in a cooler environment when it is the hottest in Japan).  Also, I g...

My short vacation

It has been a few weeks since I posted.  I went home for a couple of weeks. It felt nice and comfortable, but upsetting at the same time.  One of the nicest and necessary things that I have done for myself was getting traditional medicine treatment for my body. This was also my mom's hope when I went home.  In Mongolia, we have a traditional medicine. The doctors feel your veins and arteries and diagnose how your internal organs are performing. It may feel very alien to Western ears, but such medicine exists in Asia.  So, I had my doctor's appointment. The doctor felt my veins and arteries, and said the following. (1) She said I drink too much water, especially cold water. Because of that, my kidneys are working very hard. Moreover, because Japan is very humid and cold, my kidneys are cold. Normally, the kidneys are supposed to feel warm. The symptom, I realized later on, was frequent urination. (2) Because of my excess water consumption, my internal organs had local...
