Hey all,
Had to post this because it contains two of my favorites, wrapped up into one:
My favorite TV show ever, and those of you who know me well enough already know that the answer is: Farscape, and my favorite song is '23' by Jimmy Eat World. I was just thinking about how appropriate this is since I'll be turning 23 on the 23rd, the only time that this'll ever happen in my lifetime. So, this is mostly for me rather than anyone else, but I guess, five, ten, fifteen years down the line, I can look at this post and remember the Sarah of now. Enjoy, and maybe it'll give you a bit of insight into me.

Aine's Birthday Celebration: Retroactive Post
Oh god.
I am currently sitting in school, on a Saturday, after teaching a class hung over. I'm at school because we're having an open house for prospective junior high school students, but that's not the point. The point is: I got soo drunk last night. It was my friend Aine's, a fellow JET, birthday on Thursday, and we went out to this awesome dance festival way out in Ito on the Izu peninsula. But I didn't get drunk that night.
Last night however, we went to this little Korean bbq restaurant, which was so yummy, and I had three lemon chu-his. Feeling a bit buzzed, we make our way to Oz, this Australian-themed bar. It's tiny, but we've been there before, and the people are so nice, and they have Guinness and other foriegn beer. But what's important is the Guinness, because then you can have an Irish Car Bombs. So we did. And then I had another...and another....and another. Four in all and it was GAME OVER. But I didn't and I haven't thrown up, and I made it into work.
The first pic is of me sleeping on the train on the way home. The second is one of me with one of my student's dads. He was at the bar, cause he normally is, and had seen me doing one of my carbombs and started talking to me. He asked where I was from, and what school I taught at. When I said Ihara Koko, he goes, Oh, my daughter goes to that school. Then Albert tells me that not only is he the FATHER of one of my STUDENTS, but he's also the PTA head or something and that he was going to be at our school today since he had to talk to our principal. Rock.
I had to put the videos up on my page, since myspace is stupid, the first one is of me outside of Oz, and the second one is right before Albert and I got stopped by the POLICE on our way home from the station last night. Luckily, I wasn't riding my bike, because riding your bike drunk can land you in jail, and apparently, I used the polite form when I spoke to them.
So, a good night overall, I'll post more pics when I get some from friends. However, I'm going out clubbing tonight in Tokyo for my friend Yumi's birthday celebration, and meeting up with Chris (I'll give him the message, Pat), going to kabuki and tramping around Tokyo during the day with Shiz JETs, and then likely, going out drinking with them again. Then, I might go to Nagoya again on Monday for a day. Jeez, I keep this up, I'll be a broke alcoholic. But, I sure as hell am having the time of my life. Hope you are too!
