Conflict With a Housemate

I told my housemate how I felt about her cooking habits. In particular, I was concerned about the safety risks of using a pressure cooker in our shared kitchen. However, she did not understand my concerns. She seemed disappointed and said that she would move out. I realized how differently people from different cultural backgrounds can perceive what is considered common sense. I went to a movie theater and watched a film called “De Club van Sinterklaas: Paniek in het Pietendorp”. It was a typical Dutch seasonal movie for children. I noticed something interesting about the cultural representation in the movie. I found it strange that there were no people of color in it. After that, I went to a bar Stiefel. There was a darts event going on. I talked to some familiar customers. I had tinned fish and spaghetti for dinner.
