Return to Japan August 6th: My return to Japan was a bit sad in comparison to the first time I left a year ago. I was sad to leave my family and everyone because I really didn’t get a chance to absorb them in. Time went by so quickly, and I wish I could have stayed the summer. Nevertheless I will continue what I have been doing and stay in touch as much as I can with whatever means I have. Another downside (but an expected one) was the Economy flight back to Japan lol. Though I did get to sit next to a hot Brazilian the whole way. That was fun ^^
Seclusion and Illness: Once I returned to Japan, I experience the worst Jetlag I have ever had. The only thing I did was eat in sleep for what it seemed liked half a week. Then because it’s Japan ( and literally 75% of ppl who have come here on Jet that I know get sick more here than their respective home countries) I ended up feeling ill. Come to find out that I acquired lymphnoiditis ( link ) and was given four different kinds of medicine to treat it. I don’t know if it’s just my logic but that kind of illness seems pretty damn random. Like who gets that kind of sick really O.o Oh Japan you hate my immune system!
Beer Garden & Kanazawa Beach August 14th: So after a little over a week of staying home and doing minimal amounts of work of any kind I decided to go (even though I still felt icky) to Beer Garden to have dinner with the new comers. I had yet to meet any of them and I figured I should get started. So I got dressed in a bunch of my new clothes ( yay America for real clothes sizes!) I got there, met up with a large group of old and new Jets and made my way to the garden. The new group of Jets seem very up for anything. Not quite as BAM as our group but they all seem quite nice, and quite young. ( Look at me trying to sound like a Senpai! Lol ) Nevertheless, got there, hugged and kissed the friends I hadn’t seen in a while, found a place to sit and ate very little. The heat prevented me from really enjoying the food. However I must admit there were some really random yet awesome things that happened at beer garden besides meeting the new comers. I walked over to Adam who was with a small group of Japanese people who were apparently Gospel singers or liked gospel. They asked me if I knew any, and I tried to help them with some words. I ended up being the lead singer and they backed me up for like five minutes while Adam recorded it. It was so embarrassing but awkwardly cool/funny at the same time. I also met a guy named Akeem (new comer) and I believe he is the new CIR or he just happens to have ridiculously good Japanese. He ended up running up to me followed by two Japanese girls. He proceeded to tell me that the college girl was interested in fashion and was admiring my clothes and style from afar and she wanted to tell me that. The mother found it to be just as impressive and eventually they asked to take pictures of me. I obliged and had a conversation with them (through Akeem of course) and it was quite enjoyable. From that point other new Jets insisted on telling me that I was the most snazzy dressed person out of the group and that I should take a shot of sake to celebrate this fact. I also obliged that request as well! XD
FINALLY it was time to leave and despite my better judgment decided to take the trek up to Kanazawa for a night beach party they were having. The walk there was kinda horrible considering I was wearing heels. Tiffany thankfully gave me her flip flops to wear and the walk there was much better though my feet looked kinda worse for wear despite it. Once I got to the beach I kinda just walked around, ran into a circus troop of really attractive Australians, South Africans and Cubans and conversated with them for a while. The night was overall pretty chill, with a bit of dancing. Not as much as I would have liked because the DJ was stupid. However while dancing I ended up speaking with the Brazilian women who got my attention by telling how beautiful she thought my body was O.o Obviously they are very open in Brazil… Nevertheless it was one hell of a conversation starter!! XD! The rest of the night was fairly uneventful after this and I just kinda lounged around on the hammocks provided until the trains started running again in the morning.
