Even though I said this would be a sort of journal for me,

the truth is...

I'm not quite sure how to go about this. (｡•́‿•̀｡)

Unfortunately, I'm not very eloquent when it comes to introductions...

When I was little, they used to ask us to share fun facts about ourselves on the first day of school, and whenever it was my turn, well...

let's just say the blank looks I received didn't feel welcoming (' ε ' )

I wish I could tell people secrets that would completely take them by surprise! Like, "my parents used to be secret agents working for the government (•̀ᴗ•́)و" or "My record for timed eating is five apples in the span of 5 minutes"

...but as of now, nothing like that comes to mind...ahaha... (つω'*) ...shame...

Ah, I know! 

Perhaps we can begin with something standard!  \(o'▽'o)/

The first step is always the hardest, but after that, 

it gets better...right?

Hmm-- for starters,

I am very fond of bitter green tea~

In fact, I drink it almost every day!

   [Hehe, have you noticed that the chapter titles are all named after beverages so far?]  

I'm a huge glutton when it comes to food; luckily, I was blessed with high metabolism, so it all balances out~

Funny thing is,

usually, the foods/drinks I enjoy change with the weather, 

but green tea is the only thing that has stayed constant throughout!

Last year,

I even participated in a Japanese Tea Ceremony for class! 

It was my first time, so I wasn't used to kneeling for such a long period...

needless to say,

my legs felt realllly sore afterwards! 

Maybe that's what they mean by "walking on pins and needles..." That moment after I first stood up, I really empathized with little mermaid when she first used her legs...

But they gave us tiny sweets near the end to go with the bitter tea, 

so that sort of alleviated the pain?

..............well, that's it for today! I-i might need to rest more... 

(/▽＼*)｡o○♡ maybe in my dreams, I'll become an interesting person!
