It was the first time in several years. In contrast to the previous day, the crypto market had fallen sharply. This is typical of the volatility of the crypto market. Phew! I went to the bar My Way. The bartender that day was Rany. She made me a small bowl of fried noodles, but to be honest, they were not very good. I wondered if cooking was not her strong point. I talked with Ruud for a long time. We smoked cigarettes together and caught up with each other. However, he suddenly brought up the shape of Asian people&#8217;s eyes. &#8220;I was just wondering, do they have poorer eyesight than Westerners because their eyes are so narrow?&#8221; It was shocking to hear that. I thought he was an absolute idiot. We argued a little, but I could not explain properly in English why his comment was offensive because I was drunk. The good atmosphere between us disappeared because of that topic. My bill was quite expensive that day: \u20ac46.50. I bought beers for some people, and some people bought me drinks too. I had no choice but to get drunk! On my way home, I felt sad. I wondered whether my other Dutch friends also had such ignorant ideas. I went straight to bed without eating dinner or taking a shower.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>These days, I have been in contact with a client.
