JGz Farewell Party

Today would be the last day that JGz would spend in Japan. Well his plane leaves tomorrow, so today, we are having a big party for him and a lot of people would be coming. I got a lot of sleep last night because I got home late and today I woke up really late too. Actually I got up around 11am, which isn’t so late actually.

I wanted to do some laundry since I didn’t do it yesterday, but I think that it could wait till I have things settle down for a bit. For some strange reason, I was just taking it easy recently because of all the tension that was caused since he was here in Japan. He spent the day in Kamakura with APca. They came to my house around 3pm to get his stuff so he could go back to the comfort inn in Kannai. They came to my house much slower than I thought that he would come. I was doing a little cleaning and had a little breakfast before he came.

When they finally arrived, they took a little rest in my living room for a few minutes. It was much warmer today than it was yesterday and it wasn’t raining at all. It was actually a very nice day, but there was only a little wind. We left at a very good time. I made them walk from my house to Hongodai station and then we took the train from there to Kannai station. We walked to the Comfort Inn, which I haven’t ever seen before, but have walked by many times. We chilled at their hotel for about an hour. We were watching a DVD that APca had on his laptop, which is a pretty nice laptop. It’s supposed to the top of the line laptop and best on the market right now. It is pretty nice, and it’s weird that he has his settings for the highest resolution so everything is so small, but he has a big 17 inch screen. It simply didn’t make sense.

We left the hotel around 6:30pm and arrived at Sakuragicho station around 6:50pm. People started showing up not long after that. It was great to see everyone again. I was really happy to see all of them actually. It has been a very long time since all of us have gathered together. Some people haven’t shown up for about a year or so.

We went to zawatami in the Noge area of Sakuragicho. It’s not really far from the main street there. There were about 13 people that came to the party. We started around 8pm and that lasted till around 10pm when they kicked us out because we only ordered our tables for 2 hours. People that we haven’t seen in a year, we saw today. That’s what really made it special. There was Takafumi, Yuji, Megumi, Ayano, Takako, Erika, Natsuko, Kayo, Mio, Jose, Allan, Me were the members that came tonight. It was a fun time.

After that, some of the people, mainly the girls had to go home. But the rest of the members went to a place to Karaoke. It was fun, but a little loud for my ears. We sang for about an hour till the rest of the members needed to leave home. YFto and I decided to take the last train back home, so we had more time to hang out with them. We walked everyone back to the station and then we walked JGz and Apca back to their hotel before we went back to kannai station and took the last train back home. The train was pretty packed in there. I was a bit surprised, even though I’ve been on the last train before.

I hitched a ride with YFto back to my house, and we talked a lot about a lot of things. He’s a really good guy. I’m glad to have made good friends in Japan. I really am enjoying my experience here.
