8. I've had various anxiety problems for years

I'll be seeing some people, hopefully, and just talking is a benefit for me.

Some nice food in this thread. My favourite Japanese food is sushi, although too much wasabi is a no-no. Also I know this place called Shuji Sushi which offers four different bento boxes, all delicious.

Finally I've seen more contemporary film than the classics. I want to expose myself to the work of Yasujiro Ozu.
