Why is every day of my life so Awsome now? WHY DOES IT HAVE TO BE AT THE END?! although I wouldnt have it any other way.
So, after Karaoke on Saturday-Sunday, I slept. like.. THE ENTIRE DAY. I woke up at 6:00 only to realize I was supposed to be at a birthday party for Emi, from chorus. HAHAH I SUCK. So I got my shit together and made it out for, guess what, MORE KARAOKE. But im glad I got to sing Karaoke with the chorus. Everyone is REALLY good so its so cool. And everyones WAY supportive and cheers you on and there were tons of cool songs chosen!! one guy sang some erotic-sounding korean song. AND THEN STARTED RAPPING IN KOREAN. Fuckin AWSOME. Lots of english, lots of Japanese. A few of the guys did INSANELY over dramatic, and yet still cool, songs. All the ladies sang beautifully--Mari belted out "The Greatest Love" AMAZINGLY. gave me chills!! I had trouble picking songs since I had sung EVERYTHING the night before, but when I did, everyone cheered *FELT THE LOVE* Yushi sang some really sad song about leaving that made everyone cry. =( That part was sad. Theo and I left around midnight and had to say goodbye to everyone. I had to say bye to Theo too. T___T
BUT THEN. I got back to the dorm and was told to hunt out my pals in the forest. Lo and Behold, I wander out towards the football field and I see a bonfire in the trees. IT WAS BONFIRE TIME! As a joint goodbye party for Charles, Yuta and Takuya, a few good friends gathered about and hung out. We told secrets, talked about the future, had a good time goofing about, drinking a little and eating a bunch of snacks. Then around 4 am we decided to run out and PLAY ON BAKAYAMA!! So we played a bunch of goofy camp-like games. Rock Paper Sisters combined with racing, Wheelbarrow races, etc. It started raining in the middle and the grass was so wet so we got soaked. And then the boys goofed around and did HILARIOUS "victory" dances, which involved lots of stripping and falling around and yumping into bushes. THEN, after everyone had showered and cleaned up, we all piled into the tatmi room and curled up in the random blankets and futons that were there. There was lots of sleepy talking and poking Charles, who had fallen asleep. Charles and Nonchan practically cuddled, too. That was probably one of the best nights ever. It was pure GOOD FEELING fun. We all were just happy to be together and be friends. Somehow it was sad, but at the same time, just all around good.
BUT THEN, without any sleep, it was OFF TO NIKKO!! I shipped my packages (100 bucks!) and i have a few more to do T__T Me Cat and Meghan set out and after some complications, finaly got a train to Nikko. Its a touresty place up in northern Japan. So two hours later, we arrived Just In Time to catch up with Amanda, her mom, Stina and her sister! YAY!! So all together we trottled off to check out the Old Big and Crazy Shrines of Nikko. They were very lovely!! VERY inate and gawdy. Nothing like the simple shrines you see today. Awsome :) We also ran up and saw where Tokugawa Ieyasu is inshrined and I dubbed him my home boy >D
Then we had a LOVELY DELICIOUS dinner and the owner of the youth hostel picked us up. The youth hostel was FAR AWAY in the mountains but UTTERLY AWSOME. It was kind of a lodge style and filled with people :) Youth Hotetls always make me think of my chorus tours so I was SUPER excited the whole time. After settling in, we decided to head off towards Onsen. IN THE MIDDLE OF THE SPOOKY, MIST FILLED NIGHT. It was like a 20 minute walk in COMPLETE DARKNESS. I like clung to Meghan the whole time XDD But we got to the Onsen (a guiding light in the darkness!!) and it was SOO NICE. all natural and warm and nakedie and outside onsen and relaxing and eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee So NIIICE.
After the walk back (not as bad!), we passed out :) Then it was time for YOGA. at 7 am :OOOOO It was really cool but @___@ i feel all stretched out. Then we had a great breakfast and chatted with the other guests. Then we said byebye to our host and trotted off to find the Waterfalls!! We got to a lake and walked down to the Italian Embassy. SOO NICE. We got tea and took a lot of pictures of the lovely view. Then we ran back and saw the WATERFALL. adhasldjhalsjdhaljH AWSOme. SO COOl. GORGIOUS! WET! YAY! But Meghan Cat and I had to leave kind of early, so we had to leave then and come back to Tokyo. Alas :( I wish I could have spent more time in Nikko though. Cause while it was really nice, it was also pretty touresty. So I would have loved to explore more slowly and see everything, just not the Big Attractions. Ah well
THere is some sort of party going on on the mountain in Takao that im missing. but I have stuff here to do so I guess I should do it =(
But seriously. AWSOMENESS
