Girlfirend's Birthday

My girlfriend was supposed to come to my home in the evening. It was a special day for her. Because she got her birthday three days ago, and it was the first day for her and me to meet after her birthday.

I prepared to celebrate her birthday. I bought perfume for a present, a cake, and a nameplate for the cake. I also wrote a letter to tell my feelings for her. I hadn't told what I had prepared for the day to her since I thought she would be surprised and get happy.

My guess came true, and she got so happy. It was such a good day for her and me.

Body Hair Removal: Second Treatment

I did my second-time body hair removal. It passed two months after the last time I did. Most of my hair had already been lost, and I had few. The last time I got sharp pain, and this time, I expected to get less pain since my body hairs were fewer than before. Moreover, I used a drug for pain removal just in case. Unfortunately, I got sharp pain again. The laser was too strong. The pain is a good sign of damaging my body hairs, and it means my body hairs will be dead. Though I know that, I hate the pain. I was a bit nervous since I will take medical treatment three times in the future.

Words and Phrases

• medical treatment
• sharp pain

Scuba diving

I enjoyed scuba diving today. It is the first time to try scuba diving. I had been interested in scuba diving, but I didn't have a chance ever. Unfortunately, it was bad weather, and it rained hard, and there was a little wind. The sea didn't look good. The under the sea is also. Actually, It was good, but I thought it must be better in good weather. But the diving was so good, and I could see a lot of sea living. I was supposed to do diving only one time, but I requested the second time immediately after the first diving.

I decided to take a scuba diving license. I will go diving again soon for that. I'm looking forward to that.

Keeping doing something is not easy

I know it is best to keep doing something when I learn something. I kept studying something and writing a diary, and I realized my English skills were growing. I, however, did not do that now. Though we know it is very effective, it is not so easy to keep something.

I considered two ideas on how I keep doing something. The first idea is to do it even if it is for a short period. Five minutes is also OK. It helps me to start it. The second idea is to do it at the same time every day. It is like brushing our teeth when we have something and before going to bed. I consider time as a trigger to do it.

Light and Shadow of Startup

I joined a startup at the beginning of April. I am satisfied with the company; there are many prominent people, the office is clean and excellent, and the company is growing more and more. I didn't find any bad points.

However, I found several negative points about the company when I drank with my boss. The executives don't listen to the advice of engineers. The development style is too old, tends to contain bugs, and is very dangerous. My boss fought with the executives to change that, but he finally decided to leave the company. He advised me that I should prepare to leave the company as soon as I wanted.

This conversation was very valuable, and I thought I should think about my career in the future and begin to prepare for that.

Words and Phrases

• I am satisfied with
• I drank with
• I should do something as soon as I wanted

Morning at Cafe

"Morning" has a different meaning at cafes than beginning of a day. It means food and drink set which are served at a cafe in the morning. Their cost is very good, and some cafes serve food for free.

I hadn't used the service, and I started to use it recently. It was so good. I usually read books at a cafe. Since I move from home to a cafe and drink a cup of coffee, I can concentrate on reading books more than at home. I guess I will keep using the "morning" service in the future.

Words and Phrases

• for free
• concentrate on reading books

Double Booking

I have been using a dating app recently. When meeting a woman for the first time, I usually go to a cafe, restaurant, or bar. I prefer to go to a restaurant or bar and drink alcohol since I like alcohol and alcohol makes talk fun.

Today, I had two plans for two women. The first one is to drink alcohol at lunchtime with a woman. The second one is to drink alcohol in the evening with another woman. I expected it was hard, and the expectation was true. I expected the drinking at lunchtime took time from 12 noon to 2 pm. But the talking was so fun, and it took time from 12 noon to 4 pm. It was so longer than expected. After that, I moved to a bar. I took a break for 30 minutes, but it was short. I drink water a lot since I had to drink alcohol again.

It was a hard day, but it was also fun. I enjoyed both datings.
