Uniqlo clothes for Fall Season
Uniqlo clothes for Fall Season: because I guess it’s like only 30C outside. BRRR!
1 minute slow jogging. 1 minute walking.
It’s a start. Counting steps was too difficult. But if you listen to the right music, it seems easier. The minute flies by. It’s surprising! In a couple of weeks, I might even be running 1K! Right now it’s only about 20% of 2K. If my math is correct…
Calcutta in Ximending
Visited on Friday, what an interesting restaurant. The food flavors are much better than anything we had in Okayama or Kochi, I’m not sure why.

10% of a 4K fun run!

NOT listening to SiriusFM
What…? You mean you didn’t cancel membership last time you emailed me… you’ve only just canceled it now? Oh, well. I shall continue NOT listening to SiriusFM, along with NF, Paramount, and I’ll continue not getting all that gear: lawnmowers, toolsets… from you. Sigh! Like Comment Share
