On that refreshing note, let's move on to the next question. Do you find that your emotional or mental health shifts during the winter and how does that impact your motivation or health choices? So I do feel I do have less energy, do not feel like doing more activities. I do feel that I'm isolated and do not feel like traveling because it's cold, do not feel like I do have much more friends who want to join with me. So I do feel like low energy at the time. So those times I usually watch movies or podcasts or sometimes read books so that I engage myself. So that's pretty unique to me compared to other season where I enjoy more watching movies to entertain myself. Okay, thank you very much for sharing that. And what kind of support do you find helpful or wish you had to get through the winter healthily? Now, this could include support from professionals, community or peers. So from my peers or my family, I do enjoy like from my friends, like the pot launch, like having a dry picnic or like enjoying the company by the fire camps. Those would be really helpful from my friends and family. But from the communities, I guess, I'm pretty not sure about that, but given the condition of more of the snows, more of the like risky behavior, like the community, the pop-up message is like, I do get a message from the life network, tomorrow it's going to be a very thick snow, you need to get prepare yourself, get to 30 minutes or earlier than you used to from your room to get to the office. So those sort of like weather forecasting, weather preparation from the concerned communities would be very helpful. Indeed, absolutely. Thank you very much. And with that in mind, do you set yourself any personal goals for your health during the winter? And if so, what are they and how do you go about reaching them?
