12.11.11 Izakaya and karaoke

Whoa… I’d never thought this but now I’m one week behind… That really sucks. :( I wanted to blog in real-time, booooo-urns. Oh well, all I can do is to try to write whenever I have some free time.

And, sorry for all the wrong spelled words and sentences that doesn’t make any sense. I don’t have time to re-read my entries before I publish them…

On Saturday Marcus and I met Kohta in Shibuya. It was great seeing him again.

Kohta is a person I got to know quite randomly trough common friends in Stockholm in 2010 in a gal meetup. After that we kept on meeting each other in meetups and parties.

Everytime I’ve said goodbye to Kohta I’ve always felt that it wouldn’t be the last time I saw him, even though all the details were saying that I probably wouln’t see him again. We’re not really talking so much with each other, and I live in Norway and he was located in Sweden.

Before Kohta moved back to Japan he had a farewell party in Stockholm. It was around then I realized that I would never see him again. Unfortunately I couldn’t join his farewell party because I had to save money. I really thought that I wouldn’t see him again. But now I also did… In Tokyo! Kinda weird, I wasn’t thinking about going to Japan at all a few months back. But here I am in Tokyo, a city I thought I wouldn’t be in, seeing a person I thought I wouldn’t see again.

Kohta had brought with him a friend of him and Marcus, Maki. It was nice meeting her, she is a very funny and kind person! Maki has studied in Sweden like Kohta.

We went to izakaya place Kin no Kura, which is located somewhere in Shibuya.

Their menu was really fancy! You could browse trough their meny on a touch screen AND place orders on it! If you're like me and can't read Japanese, they have English on it too! It doesn't have as much pictures as it does in Japanese, but it's better than nothing. :)

We ordered a lot of different drinks and food (everything from french fries and sausages to more traditional Japanese dishes), I’m so sad I forgot to take pictures. I hope I can go to izakaya again, because this really was and great way to eat a lot of different things for very cheap!

In the end I got really surprised when we wanted to pay, I wasn’t sure what we were doing but how I understood it from Marcus, everyone paid my part  :ansiktsjokk: That was incredible nice of everyone! Thank you  :ansiktgrate:

ML came a little bit later so I got the chance to meet her too! She’s a student from Sweden (gosh, funny to think about how many Swedish people or people that have a connection to Sweden somehow I’ve met here in Tokyo).

Me, Maki and ML

Kohta and Marcus

Kampai!!!

After the izakaya we all went to a purikura center and took a set of purikura. I love purikura, it’s a cheap way to have fun! I place mine in a album and it’s like a album where I keep small memories like these ~

The result! I think they're very funny lol

Me and Marcus likes to take couple purikura, so we did that while the others decorated the pictures we took together!

A mix between nice and funny ones hahaha

One of the pictures~

While Marcus and I were taking purikura, ML had to go. I’m so sad we didn’t have the opportunity to say bye to her.

BUT a friend of Maki, I’ll just call him S, joined us! S is a Swedish salary man working in Japan!

We went to Utahiroba (also in Shibuya) to sing karaoke~

It was really fun to sing with these people, they’re all really funny and crazy. No need to feel embarrassed!

And like always, I have to sing the traditional “My heart will go on”. Too bad I don’t sing like Celine Dion, though. I could almost see people bleeding from their ears when I sang, hahaha.

I had a lot of fun, Marcus and I were actually planning on going to karaoke again the day after after this!

Non alcoholic drinks were free, which was really awesome! They had everything there!

Marcus and me

People had to go home because they had to get on the last train, but our last train wasn’t going yet so we could stay a bit more in town. We decided to take one more set purikura lol.

Honestly, I know it might sound boring to take so much purikura, but I when I’m away from Marcus I always think that I wish I had more pictures of us together. So, now while I have the opportunity I do my best to do it as much as possible… I know I will be very happy and glad about it in the future!

Too bad I have to censor it hahahahaha
