Yeah, curbing my intake of coffee is torturously difficult. But I make effort.
Here are drinks that I use as a substitute.
Once again, I visited a Japanese-style tavern in Singapore, named Toku Izakaya.
And I met Taki-san from Kamakura, Japan. Taki-san has a 5-year-old son who is enrolled in a kindergarten near Clementi Woods. Taki-san has only been in Singapore for five years.
And, I met a regular customer at the same izakaya, once more: Mr. Erkka from Finland. Today Erkka had his hair in braids.
What is a poet? A person who suffers from poverty And in his emptiness He sees A gem in the dirt And shines the gem for all

Just saw Boram Um, David Crosby and Cole Torode at Dough. It's their day of rest, today.

I make this list to help me make sense of the information that is swimming in my mind.
I list both the positive and negative attributes that other people have noticed in me.
(I have heard these with my own ears, over the past few years, especially after COVID occurred.)
