Today I had to clean my entire room, even though I wasn’t leaving just yet.
Because the manager is only here mon-fri and he wanted to see it cleaned before I went home.
It wasn’t fun at all, but luckily it’s not a big room at least…
Then I just relaxed the rest of the day.
At 20 some of us meet up on the first floor to have a small farewell party for me, nothing special, we just had some snacks and talked a bit.
Something that was really funny was that I’d bought some liquorice(lakris), since I had heard that Japanese people just can’t stand it… and it was true ^^
2 people managed to finish their salty candy, but most gave up… The look on their face was priceless. One guy didn’t even manage to bit all the way through, he sensed danger and stoped halfway through!
Then at 21 the Olympic opening ceremony started so everyone disappeared to the TV instead ^^
Then somewhere around 22 I was talked into going out with a few people from the guesthouse.
I felt that I didn’t have much to lose so I came along.
Sadly they decided to go to a gay bar, just for fun… but 5 of us didn’t really see the fun in it so we said good bye and went our own way.
First we went to a very futuristic bar in Shinjuku, very cool… but equally expensive.
Then we went to Shibuya, and since no-one of us seemed to have any idea of where the clubs where we ended up at that weird bar Derori once again. But this time we only had one beer, then some got tired of it.
Then the 5 of us split into 2 groups, me and 2 others went searching for another bar. After finding one randomly we entered it… big mistake ![]()
This seemed to be a bar for black people only, so we had a quick drink then ran the hell away from there
After that we got pretty tired of chasing bars and clubs so we decided to crash at McDonald’s, which wasn’t such a good idea that we had thought.
Eating a hamburger with a lot fries 4am in the morning pretty much made everything worse for me and Christian, luckily it went away quite fast.
At somewhere around 5 we took a train out of there, and we were back in Matsudo somewhere around 6 and in bed by 6:30.
It was funny though, when we got to matsudo station we meet the others that had gone to the gay bar.
I guess we’d been on the same trains the whole way without noticing… they are usually quite big.
And yeah… today was the day that I had courage to wear my Looking For A Japanese Girlfriend-shirt.
Lets just say that I now know how movie stars feel, everyone was pointing and laughing. Someone even took a picture, I think.
Japanese people don’t seem to be very used to these kinds of jokes, I didn’t think it was that funny
