Today, I learned about searching for information. The particular interest were “Basic Boolean Operators”. I didn’t know that I can use “AND”, “OR”or “NOT”when I research something in the site.

Of course I understood that it's not the same and similar culture of food, but it made me feel terrible and I also got a fever unfortunately. The food they make was healthy and tasty like homemade pizza, fish and chips or mince pie. But at first they didn't suit my body because it was so different from Japanese food. So I talked to them and asked them to make Japanese food as much as possible to help me get over my culture shock. Then they started making Japanese food for me once or twice a week. My favourites are Japanese pancakes, fried rice and sushi. Thanks to their behaviour, I co...
