I attended a farewell party of a teacher who took care of me some time ago. I arranged to meet with my friends at Iseda station for the 18:23 train schedule but I was late. As a result, I had to go to Takeda station instead, board the train up to Mien, which is a chinese restaurant. I was finally able to get there without getting lost. Soon after, I thought I had a higher tolerance for alcohol. I thought, up to now, I lack acetaldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH) which will help me tolerate alcohol better because this enzyme metabolizes alcohol. But just now I came to realize that I don't lack ALDH but I have a slower activation of that because sometimes I can take more alcohol than usual. I was surprised when I recognized that (Laughing) ! |
