I snapped this volume up as soon as I saw it was going for 99 yen on Bookwalker! I’m glad I get to read this while the club is still ongoing. > **One question** > > This sentence tripped me up: 寝つきは早いが朝は起きるのが辛いだろう. I sometimes have a habit of making assumptions about what sentences mean and reading stuff into them that isn’t there. So for this one, my first impression was that it’s something like “Going to sleep early makes it tough to wake up in the morning.” But a) that doesn’t make logical sense and b) it doesn’t seem like there’s a grammatical cause-and-effect being laid out in the sentence. So what is 師匠 really saying here? ---
