Hi, everyone! I'll be very glad if you correct my diary below. I hope you will have a pleasant day. June 7, Mon, 2021 This morning I woke up around 4:00 am. Previously I used to wake up much later, like 6:00 to 7:00 am, because I made it a rule to have a few cans of beer before going to bed every night. But last autumn I got gout and after that I got rid of that habit because I wanted to avoid having a gout attack, which would hurt me seriously. Now I'm in the habit of going to bed around 9:00pm and get up around 4:00am. I think this new habit is much better than my former lifestyle because it leads me to study and work more efficiently. Today I spent much time preparing for the upcoming classes this week. I teach at a university in Japan and have to prepare for online classes because I cannot give classes on campus due to the spread of COVID-19. I feel very sorry that many students are very sad about this situation and are becoming lesser and lesser motivated to study. I'm trying to make my classes as inspiring and exciting as I can to motivate them. I enjoyed having Korean rice rolls and Indian curry for lunch. I'm very happy to be able to enjoy not only Japanese but also Korean, Chinese and Indian cuisine thanks to a supermarket close to my house. It is very amazing that local restaurants serve their uniquely prepared dishes there. By doing so, those local restaurants can make up for the loss of their revenue caused by the state of emergency and we consumers can enjoy various delicious cuisines. I love my town all the more for this reason.
