Only two more times.

In the end, I just wanted to play.

I wanted to feel the thrill and excitement.

I wanted to dream of getting rich in a casino.

Suddenly, I woke up from my dream,

and the jagged coins I had left in my hand

feel somehow funny to the touch.

I looked at the clock and saw that it was almost time for our meeting.

I got up without saying a word and headed to the meeting place with my friend.

Of course, I put the remaining coins back into cash.

My friend hadn't arrived yet, so I went to the arcade,

where my friend was engrossed in a game.

When my friend finished the game, he noticed me.

He said it was fun,

and looked like a child who had just finished a healthy game.

Games and gambling are similar in that they both involve spending money.

Games don't increase your money, but gambling can.

Why did my friend choose the arcade and I choose gambling?

Both are playing the same game, and the amount of money spent may vary.

I thought it was strange.

I was so engrossed in playing blackjack that I forgot I was hungry, but it was already dinner time.

Because there are many immigrants in Melbourne, there are many international dishes.

Let's have dinner somewhere.

We left Crown Casino, crossed the Yarra River, and looked for a restaurant.

As we crossed the Yarra River, it felt like we were returning from the dream of the casino to reality.

We found a casual restaurant with a stylish atmosphere on the right side of the main street.

We decided to have dinner there.

The restaurant was bright and not noisy despite facing the main street.

The menu seemed like a typical restaurant, with hamburgers and steaks. My friend ordered a hamburger and I ordered something like a steak. I wanted to try Australian beef steak in its home country. The steak was quite tasty. It wasn't marbled like Japanese Wagyu beef, but the lean meat was firm and a little tough. My friend said that she was on a diet, but after spending a few days with me, her diet gradually loosened up and she ate the hamburger with gusto. Seeing my friend eating with gusto, I felt like a weight was lifted from my chest. We left the restaurant and decided to walk back to the hotel. It was cold at night, but we had warmed up after dinner, so it was just the right amount to work up an appetite. The hotel seemed quite far away. But as we walked and chatted, it felt like the time flew by. My friend told me that he bought a lot of souvenirs because he was given a lot of time off work for this trip. He said that he hasn't bought anything for himself yet. I think he shouldn't be so considerate to the employees, since they're just part-timers. They're working adults, but we're students. I wanted them to spend the money they earned from their part-time jobs on themselves and their families. Since you've come all the way here, why don't you spend more money on yourself? When I said this to my friend, he replied, "But they took my shift and gave me a lot of days off. Plus, there are a lot of employees who take care of me, and they've all gone off to Australia." I got this answer. For my friend, the place where he works is important, so maybe he feels a closeness to them like family. I can understand how he feels. Unlike high school, college doesn't have fixed classes, so you feel like you don't belong unless you join a club. You have to find a place that will affirm that it's okay for you to exist somewhere. Maybe that's why people join clubs to easily satisfy their desire to belong. But even if you do join a club, if you don't fit in, you'll lose sight of yourself again. When I entered the hotel room, my tired legs from all the walking suddenly felt tired. When I lay down in bed, I felt like I wanted to fall asleep, but I decided to take a shower and go to sleep. The casino was fun. But next time I'll have to study more.
