Is it worth paying $120 for global entry ？ I have heard that the tourist lane was faster depending on the date and time. I would love to hear reviews from those who have obtained it 😌.

I have a small child and a husband who is American so I think it would be better to have it since we all end up together quickly. When I go back to Hawaii the lines are always long for tourists at the airport and Global Entry is a few people.

I am also a green card holder.
When I returned to Hawaii from Japan at the end of last October
I stood in line for an hour and a half in the tourist lane.
I recently got Global Entry.
I don't think I will have to wait in long lines in the future
I feel much better.

I've been back to Hawaii at the end of last month, the beginning of this month, and the 19th of this month, and all three times there was no line at all ！
It was very smooth ！.

I was in the immigration line for 2 hours when I came back in Feb. As a GC holder, I am usually instructed to stand in the US passport line with my US citizen family members, but this time I was instructed to stand in the tourist line with my family members because of the new rules. So all the US Passport family members stood in the tourist line with me for 2 hours.

When my turn finally came, all of my US citizen family members were sent to a separate room with me, and they were also inconvenienced. I have a feeling that even if I apply for Global Entry, it will be rejected because of my history of visa denial decades ago.

I used to be sent to a separate room every time, so I got a redress number, and after getting the number, I don't have to be sent to a separate room anymore, but this time, the officer at the counter happened to be new, and all my family members were exhausted after being sent to a separate room for a long time.

I want to get global entry, but I think I will fail in the screening process, so I have given up on MPC for now ….

Those of you who have crossed the ocean to come here to Los Angeles and Japan
are always concerned about something related to your travel between Los Angeles and Japan.

If you have anything to say or questions, please feel free to write.
I'll try to write "something" as well.

Example ：
What means do you use to call when you return to Japan?

Which seat on the plane do you prefer, Aisle or Window, front, back,

Which airline do you think has the best food?

Which mode of transportation do you use to get to the local area?

and so on and so on

In #4561, I wrote "I was born in the middle of the war", but the Japanese dictionary defines "Sengen-ka" as

＊ the generation who spent their youth during the period of World War II. ＊ ＊

as opposed to the postwar generation, and since I was born about a year before the end of the war (or more precisely, the anniversary of "defeat" ）), I

do not belong to the "wenchu-ha". I don't really care about that. I don't really care, but I was curious.

I used to live in Torrance a long time ago and there used to be a beauty parlor called Fathalia in Hawthone bld. I wonder if they are still in business today. ？ The owner of the salon and I were good friends, but when I sent a message to his old email address, I couldn't reach him because the provider itself is no longer in business. I tried to call FASARIA, but the automated voice mail was not working at all. Please let me know if you know whether FASARIA is working or not. Please let me know ！

I don't think I should name names, so
I would appreciate your understanding, but
isn't it very difficult to find a Japanese American hair salon in Hawaii and a salon manager
？
I finally found one, but
she suddenly "quit". I would like to go back to the salon if she is working in another salon.
She was working at a salon not far from the Hilton until about March.
If anyone knows her, please let me know.

I was probably in the care of the same person for a long time.
I heard of his retirement just as I was thinking ！ that I had finally found someone I could trust as well.
Her instagram also disappeared and I am wondering if there were some sudden circumstances.
If you are still in Hawaii I would like to know too.

Unlike the days when the only hybrid was the Prius, today
there are a variety of hybrid cars on the market, so
you don't have to choose a Prius to choose another hybrid car.

But Porsche is different. Hybrid is the lowest and maintenance cost is absurdly high

Other German luxury cars also have high maintenance cost
Wealthy people may flirt with Benz, Porsche, etc. for a while, but eventually they settle down with Lexus when they get old.
People who have enough money and don't mind the price end up with Lexus ～ It is best to change luxury cars in 3 years

Korean cars look cheap but they are copies and you can't find the soul of technology like Japanese cars
Sometimes people are fooled by the price and the glance, but I think I am not the only one. Sometimes there are people who are fooled by the price, but they are often people with low IQ.

About a friend's pet sitter

Problem / Need advice

A friend of mine, who is not a very close friend, has been asking me to dog sit
her two small dogs for a few years now.
At first I took it lightly, but the dogs are not potty trained
and I have to take them for walks about 5 times a day
and I have to stay with them all night.
So it's almost like they are tied up for the whole day, but
they never pay me any money, just some bad sushi from the supermarket
in the fridge.
The friend is now making several trips a year
and I am having trouble with it. Is it
normal for friends to offer free pet sitting ？ or
how do you all do it when you are asked to pet sit for an acquaintance or friend?

I can't believe that you have been dog sitting for free for several years. I think they are just taking advantage of the good Lord who can't say no. People who are good at pampering are thick as thieves and will escalate the situation. In the US, if you are going to dog sit and even stay overnight, it is normal to pay, unless you are family. However, some people just find someone who can afford the time to pet-sit or babysit and impose on them for free.
I am not a person who is good at saying no to people, so I accepted it at first, but in common, such people ask for more and more favors.
Moreover, when I refused, they would ask me why they couldn't do it, and before I knew it, I was often surprised to find out that it was natural for them to accept my requests.

If you and your partner both have pets and you help each other when you travel, I understand. If you love your dog and don't mind taking care of it, that's fine, but why should you spend your time and effort on her pet while your friend is on vacation? ？ I think you should be honest about your feelings and clearly decline.

If that makes it awkward for the other person to show no appreciation or apology for what you have done, I think you should keep your distance.

I frankly felt that "the dog owner is a really brazen person"
You are recognized as a handyman and not appreciated.
Please cut ties with such a person now. They will try to keep you in their words. But don't be fooled. They will not give up their connection with you for the reason that 'it will be inconvenient if the handyman disappears'. If you have a record of your past, don't forget to file a claim for damages through an administrative scrivener.

It is not possible. We will pay for you even if you are close to us. You can choose to refuse. Because I got busy, you know. They may ask you for a little bit of help or something, but you should firmly refuse saying that you can't.

I was dog-sitting for a friend of mine for a while.
I had no intention of getting paid, but when I told my family later
they said there was no way I could dog sit for free.
Looking back, I was spending money on transportation to go to the dog sitter
so I was happy to get that much.
I think it is very expensive to have a dog sitter, so
I think she saves a lot of money and is able to travel ？

I know it is hard to say no, but I think you should give a reason
such as you are not feeling well.

I have been bothered for a long time because I was worried that I would be considered narrow-minded to say no or mention money even though we are friends

I am going to Las Vegas for the first time in about 10 years.

I'm freaking out that parking is now charged. I used to buy the 24 hour buffet all-you-can-eat and eat all the seafood etc. that I love. ？

I'm thinking about what to do this time because I'm taking my kids and I hope they can enjoy it, but I feel like I can't go anywhere if parking costs ＄ 20 or so every time.

I would like to go to Coca-Cola, M&M and other stores that are fun to look at, as well as the interior of each hotel, the fountains and the pirate show. I am worried.

I would like to have fun with my kids and family, no drinking or gambling.

Thank you, I will try to get the hotel to open in the next couple of weeks. The hotel is a resort a little ways off the strip. I still think it's going to cost a parking lot, I'm afraid 🥲

I'll check out some good restaurants. Let me know if you have any recommendations.

If you are staying in a remote hotel, Uber is the only way to get to the strip and back. Don't take a cab, you will get ripped off
Once you get to the strip, there is a bus that runs around the clock and you can take it to remote downtown areas.

I did the ZO skin therapeutic course to remove spots.
You purchase the products from the medical spa in Lake Forest below and use the products after washing your face in the morning and at night for about 3 months, I think. Personally, I thought it was fine even if I didn't use ZO Skin's face wash. The 1cm sized spots on my cheeks are gone, and the spots on my temples have rebounded and appeared, but I am happy with the results because they are invisible with regular foundation instead of concealer.
