now that we were rolling five deep, we knew it would be the perfect night to rage in osaka. tesni called mika and got her on the party train. after some puri kura (i have been spelling it wrong, my bad!) photos and playing this drum game we decided to KARAOKE. that was one of my essential must-do activities in japan. i mean, lost in translation is one of my favorite flicks and ultimate inspiration for any and all things related to the japan trip!
we haggled a price of about $16 pp for an hour and a half of karaoke fun and unlimited drinks so once we got settled into the room (shoes off, party attitude on) we started ordering whatever we could think of and adding songs to the queue. lets just say it was the most fun we had in japan, i think. you know, party fun times wise. what could be better than singing cheesy songs with a bunch of your best friends in japan?!! when jeremy sang born in the USA and the cocktail waiter came in during the line "...to kill the yellow man" i lost my mind. CLAZY. guess you had to be there!
after an hour and a half, we stayed for another thirty minutes just because we wanted to sing some more mariah carey and beastie boys. i took a million pictures, brought the karaoke to the bathrooms, played air guitar on tesni's leg and did group vocals to a wu-tang song... good times.
once we were done with karaoke, we hit up the combini for some more drinks. open containers on the streets of shinsaibashi is still weird, but its legal so whatever. when in japan... etc. tesni called john and got the scoop on the dance night and on our way, we picked up a japanese dude who was like "crub? crub?" yeah dude, we are gonna get clunk in the crub, come chill with us! so we brought along our friend and went to the only indie dance night in western japan. once we paid our 1500 yen (!!! yeah $15 !!!) we got inside and john was like "oh man, i was just going to text you and say how lame it is and that you guys shouldn't come" well, TOO LATE! we already brought the party!
instead of calling it a night, we all took to the dance floor on a mission to make this thing fun and it wasn't that hard. i had tesni, adam, nicole, jeremy, mika, john, john's friends and random japanese dude who joined our group and we just raged. it felt like being in a club in the UK, pretty much all brit pop songs with the occasional US-wannabe-UK dance song playing. eventually the DJ started taking requests from us since we were the people who brought the party back. the smiths, le tigre, vampire weekend, etc. i was in heaven! again, took a million pictures, joked on people drinking zima, dance dance dance... so much fun.
after party time, we all went back to the capsule. the boys went to bed and us girls went to the onsen baths!!!!! nothing like bathing with your girl friends after a clazy night and a couple drinks!
gotta sleep well because the next morning was our trip to koyasan. time to detox and get heavy!
