TOKYO...POP!(no pics...forgot the camera...duh)

So I experienced the city that is Tokyo for the first time last night....in the words of Bill Paxton,
Oh....My....God...The second i got out of the Shibuya train station I was knocked back with the realization that this is all real and i am really here!...fantastico!...the huge buildings, the lights, the tv screens, the people...everything...its all you think it would be like but just sooo much more!!!

Partied it up with other teachers at a bar where all the drinks are 3 bucks, not bad at all...then off to karaoke...now as much as i vowed not to do it, i went with the flow, and had a great time!...the $20 open bar will do that to you...so i met Americans, Brits, Kiwis, A dude from Amsterdam, and some very very friendly Japanese!...Its all about the Random. One Japanese guy is a promoter and he brought over none other than the Beastie Boys to Tokyo for a concert a while back!!! So we left the private karaoke room at about 4 and went to eat...ahhh the night out traditions. I was at first dreading the fact that we were gonna go to a curry place but what the hell, im already on the other side of the world...GO FOR IT, like Rocky 5...and...it was delicious!!!! its diff from the Indian stuf.....because i liked it....staggering onto the trains, we ran into way more people...again nova teachers but all tired and very friendly...good shit...got in after racing my roomie, Matt home on the empty Mizonokuchi(I live in Kawasaki city but my particular area is Mizo, so know you know) streets and commenting on the size of the ravens we see everywhere...imagine if the pigeons at home were all the bird equivalent of Shaq....and they sound like children yelling...creepy...till next time...BING BONG BONG!
