Dutch Lesson

March 17, 2026

I slept well and woke up around 6 am. I felt good. I attended a Dutch language class. We learned about elections. I do not have the right to vote, but it was still meaningful. I stopped by a supermarket and went back home. In the evening, I took a shower and went to the bar My Way. Bert gave me a beer, and Ruud also offered me one, but I had had enough that night. Mandy kindly invited me to smoke together, but I declined because I was not in the mood. I cooked leftover sausage, vegetables, and eggs. The eggs were from my housemate Vanshika. She sent me a message saying that she had forgotten to clear up her food and that she would stay in Japan for two weeks, so she asked me to either throw them away or use them. Of course, I chose to eat them. I have been able to reduce my alcohol consumption dramatically over the past two weeks. I feel that my mindset toward alcohol has changed.
