fears and community : January 9 2024

this is just so me today, "under construction". as i have mentioned yesterday, my fitbit is telling me to slow down. it must have known of the herculean activity i will be having this weekend, snowboard season is finally hear. we will be departing tomorrow night by bus, and by the next day morning we will be there on the slopes. and we will be staying in some hotel over there for a 2 day snowboard experience. Hive account@ohlnwwlknat, Hive account@appleeatingapple, and Hive account@thinkeringbart will also be there. i just hope we will have so much fun and will be safe in this trip.

and so what do i do to still have some cardio sessions? treadmill in the gym is the key. i just can not risk nightwalking under the elements for hours when i know i have such an important event ahead. the gym is at least close and is significantly safer. without me realizing, and hour has passed with me walking on the treadmill.

i guess it is because i had a great time watching this show at the gym. it was about old small restaurants which were apparently managed and manned by people around 70 years old. japanese people really have incredible strength, to wake up early in the morning each day and stand all day in front of the kitchen heat is nothing but dedication. i couldn't think of any other word to describe it. when you got to make ends meet, you just have to do what you have to do. and it is heartwarming to see people flock to these restaurants not only because of the delicious food but also because it had some impact to their lives and they don't want it to close down. that is how community works.

i guess that is all for today, make it short and sweet. oh i hope we do well in the snow this weekend. it has been a year and i always forget how to board the ice every time. the initial fear is always there, but i guess it is also good to have some fear. fear keeps you on your toes, keeps you in check. fear prevents you from being reckless.

that is all folks.
as always, AMPING KANUNAY!
