Gave a Gift

I went to a dental clinic at 12:30 pm. I was nervous because this appointment would determine the fate of my bad tooth. The dentist gave me a good suggestion, and I received a temporary tooth, which is working for now. After that, I visited a cafe. I had a cup of hot coffee and read the book Trading For A Living. After 3 pm, I visited an ophthalmologist. I had experienced severe pain about two months ago, so I wanted to have my eyes checked. Fortunately, there were no issues. I had to pay 100% of all medical expenses myself because I do not have Japanese insurance. The total cost was about 15,000 JPY. In the evening, I went to the sushi restaurant Dai-zushi with my parents. There were some foreign customers who were confused about how to order, so I helped them overcome the language barrier. I gave my parents Tissot watches. My mom was happy, but my dad was not. Nevertheless, we enjoyed sashimi, sushi, tempura, and sake. I continued drinking at home and talked with my mom about my dad’s arrogant behavior. I think my dad may have cognitive issues. I fell asleep around 11:30 pm.
