Making a Bento

I attended a Dutch lesson at 9 am. It was nothing special. I told my teacher Heidi that I will skip next week because I will go on vacation to Bergen. I stopped by a supermarket and bought ingredients for my monthly bento artwork. I chose a herring sandwich as the main dish. The cooking time was less than 20 minutes. I have to say it is cutting corners, but it looks like a typical Dutch lunch box. I went to the bar My Way. The first beer was fantastically delicious because I had fasted for 36 hours the previous day. The bartender Mandy offered me a cigarette, and I appreciated her offer. She told me she had cannabis every night. It was a fun time, and I got drunk easily. I had the herring sandwich bento for dinner, but it was not very tasty. I cut my bangs by myself. I want to go to a barber, but I am not in the mood to pay €25 for a haircut. The small trim worked for me, and I took a shower.
