~Rock On~

Today was wicked!! I caught three different trains to meet Shuji in Shinagawa (Area occupied by massive businesses, everybody wears suits). Then we made our way to Roppongi. Where we settled in at Tokyo`s Hard rock cafe!. We ordered chicken tenders with a chilli factor of "heavy Metal" and thus this lead to a jug of beer and two long island ice teas each!. The waitress was real funny, she kept coming over to our table and talking random stuff (e.g how drunk she got last nite after drinking long islands and wine) and then we got...........
A members card! YAHOOIZZIE!!!! It entitles us to 5% off which came in handy considering our total bill was close to $100 which Shuji so kindly shouted. THe next stage was to ROCK!!. We went to a Kareoke place down the road and sung skid row, bon jovi, linkin park/jay z, eminem, fort minor and Eric clapton. Being boys we didnt take any photos although we did make some music videos. note: Now this aint no "K-BOX" place. Kareoke room includes 8 (BOSE) speakers, two cordless (SHURE) mics, Echo features, clarity manipulations, big tv, touch screen remotes and well listed songs, also note this kareoke company boosts to have the most amount of songs. From every genre within the Japanese and English spectrum.. e.g. they have SLIP KNOT... Theres also books of thai, korean and chinese songs. After singing.....

We called Nami and arraged to meet near her work at 6.30. . . Shuji had to leave to go to another function and so i was left waiting alone in a unfamiliar area. I wasnt worried at first, coz i was feeling amped, had my headphones, ipod and drawing pad. Unfortnatly the next time i looked at my watch it was 7.45!! I was a little worried coz i thought prehaps i was waiting in the wrong spot and with no cellphone i was kinda stranded. So i had a little walk around and when i came back to the spot Nami showed up. She had been held up at work. (I tell ya,i`m alot luckier in Tokyo than i am anywhere else in the world). =D

Once meeting we decided to go to the `new zealand cafe`. They blasted all of the New zealand music (and as u`d know i`m a huge fan of NZ music.....NOT!!) to which we slipped on Tui`s and nibbled on fish and chips and steak and cheese pie.

<--- Now this is the most expensive Tui ever. It costs about $8 and came on alittle Air New Zealand coaster. hmmm Isnt it strange how you`d never drink Tui`s in nz but coz you`re in a different country.... Now I wonder if i could get a job here? Because i know for a fact i could make better fish and chips than this place. I mean those aint even chips, they`re like those things you buy at the super market to cook at home for afternoon tea etc. Fish was suprisingly good. However the batter not so. And the Pie was like any other pie from StarMart, except the pie cost $19 (incl a few little kumara bits). . . .Can u believe this place was going off?!

Well, While not quite sober I still managed to roll with Nami to Shinjuku where we went to the game centre and played. I caught two toys for $2 and then wasted $10 trying to get these stupid keyrings. And as always to finish off a great day out we took sticker photos!!....

We didnt take many, and the features werent the greatest (features= extra drawings and manipulations that you can do to ur photo). But we had fun. I`m sure we wont take as many as we did last trip. =P .... Hey this is the first time Nami has made an apearance. ne?! "Nami say hello".........Nami says "Yo". =)

Alightly a few things to comment in closing. I have yet to recieve any entries into the "read the graffiti" competition. DId i mention i will ship the prize to anywhere in the world?!!. I WILL!!!.
