Gave A Letter
I got out of bed around noon. I had a headache for some reason.I put my painting materials in order. In the evening, I went to the bar Stiefel. Hans, a butcher, was sitting on the terrace. I asked Elsa, the bartender, to give him a beer and a letter of appreciation. Later, he came inside the bar and asked, “What is this?” (I had packed a Japanese five-yen-shaped chocolate and a real five-yen coin.) He said, “I will read it at home. You must have spent a lot of time writing it in Dutch.” I felt a bit embarrassed. He also gave me a glass of beer. I boiled a leftover packaged potato, but it smelled bad. It must have already been rotten, but I still tried to eat it. I sauteed spinach and grilled a pork fillet for dinner. While having dinner, I watched the movie Inside Out. It was interesting and even made me tear up a little. After dinner, I took a shower and painted for some time. I fell asleep just after midnight.

Thoughtful, personal, and cross-cultural.

- Gave A Letter I went out of bed around noon. I had head ache for some reason. I did tidy and neat about my painting material lack. In the evening, I went to the bar Stiefel. There was Hans, a butcher, on a terrace seat. I asked Elsa, a bartender, to give him a beer and a letter of appreciation. Later, he entered inside the bar and asked what is this (I packed a Japanese five Yen shaped chocolate and a coin of Japanese five yen). "I will read it at home. You must spent a lot of time to write it in Dutch." I felt a bit embarrassed. He gave me a glass of beer also. I boiled leftover packed potato but it smelled bad. It must be already rotten but I tried to eat. I sauteed spinach and grilled pork fillet for dinner. While having dinner, I watched the movie Inside Head. It was interesting and I got tear a bit. After dinner and took a shower, I painted for some time. I fell asleep just after midnight.
