Hello, it’s Sonata here 🌿✨

Today is August 15th—the final day of the Obon holiday.

This year’s Obon was marked not only by a heat wave but also by typhoons and heavy rains that affected some areas. I’d like to express my heartfelt sympathy to everyone who suffered damage.

I imagine the weather is still unstable in some areas, so if you’re traveling, please don’t push yourself too hard and always put safety first.

So, about this Obon break.

Whether you’re visiting family, going on a trip, or just relaxing at home… there are so many ways to spend it, aren’t there?

As for me, there’s something I just can’t resist reaching for when I’m at home.

That’s right, video games! 🎮✨

“Just a little bit today,”

I tell myself as I start, but before I know it,

“Just one more round!”

“I’ll stop once I clear this part.”

“Just until the next save point…”

Before I know it,

I glance at the clock and get a shock.

Wait, is it really this late already!?😂

If you’re a gamer, I’m sure you’ve experienced this at least once.

Of course, the next morning,

“I wish I’d stopped a little earlier yesterday…”😅

Even though the game itself was fun, you’re sleepy come morning.

I know.

I know I should go to bed earlier (lol).

But it’s not just games, is it?

When you’re watching a movie,

“I can’t wait to see what happens next!”

When you’re watching anime,

“Just one more episode!”

When you’re listening to music, a nostalgic song comes on and you end up listening to one after another.

Why does time fly by so fast when I’m doing the things I love? 😊

 

And in my case, I sometimes fall asleep while inhaling hydrogen 🌿

Even on nights when I’ve stayed up late,

“Okay, I really should go to sleep now,”

I’ll set up my hydrogen inhaler and head to bed.

 

Even though I’ve incorporated hydrogen into my daily life, it doesn’t feel like I’m doing anything special every time—for me, it’s just part of my ordinary routine.

But—

If I’m sleepy the next morning, I can’t help but think:

“Just because I’m inhaling hydrogen doesn’t mean it’s okay to stay up late, right? 😂”

 

That goes without saying (lol).

Hydrogen is hydrogen.

Sleep is sleep.

Just because a game is fun, it’s a bit unfair to make the next-day version of myself pay for it all.

 

 

Come to think of it, the Obon holiday is just the same.

Even though it’s a break you’ve been looking forward to, it’s over in the blink of an eye as soon as it starts.

“I wish I could still be on vacation,”

you might think, but the calendar won’t wait for you 😂

Just as games have an end, so do vacations.

Maybe that’s exactly why they’re so much fun.

I imagine some of you had a restless Obon this year, with the intense heat, typhoons, and heavy rain.

Safety first.

And once you have a little breathing room, it’s important to make time to enjoy the things you love.

For me, that includes games, music, movies, anime, hot springs, and delicious food.

There are still so many things I want to enjoy 😊✨

But tonight…

I think I’ll cut my gaming short and go to bed a little early.

Probably.

…Probably 😂🎮🌿
