Hello. Recently, it has become very cold, and I can’t get up in the morning. I always want to stay in my warm bed, so I keep pressing the snooze button on my alarm. When I finally wake up, I feel sleepy and don’t want to go outside. Winter mornings are the hardest for me. But I also feel happy because it is finally the season for hot pot. I really love nabe! I like putting vegetables, meat, and tofu in one big pot and eating with my friends. It makes my body warm, and we always talk a lot while eating. Hot pot makes me feel that winter is not so bad. Also, I recently turned twenty years old. Now I can drink alcohol legally in Japan, so I tried some beer. It was a little bitter, but it felt special. The school festival is coming soon, so I’m working hard to prepare for it. I want it to be a great event!
