Saturday b-day partay

So Saturday was Sarah's birthday. Attila being the nice guy he is got her a cake and a card. We all surprised her with it at her room. She just happened to get out of the shower at that time, so it was kind of badly timed.
I was pretty impressed with my timing on this shot. If you look at it closely, I took it just as some of the candles were being extinguished. You can see the flames almost dying. Attila is holding the cake. We let her get dressed and we had her cake in a community lounge area. It was very good.

We went to this place called Aqua to have nomihodai to celebrate Sarah's birthday. Nomihodai is a deal some bars do that lets you drink as much as you want for 2 hours for around $15. It is pretty nice if you like getting trashed. Not so much if you don't really want to get drunk (me). Here is sarah in her outfit for the night. Kyle bought her the crown.
Here are some pictures of the event. It was a fun time. Some of the guys kept talking about their new bicycle gang called "Gaijintensya". The name is a play on words because the word for foreigner is "gaijin" and the word for bicycle is "jitensya". So they kind of tied them together into one word. Their salut was them shouting "GAIJINTENSYA, HOO!" It was pretty funny.


I got a little more drunk than I wanted to be. I didn't really want to get drunk in the first place. But I like beer, and I am susceptible to peer pressure apparently. Conclusion: I am not going to nomihodai again unless it is mission critical for some reason. I went just for social opportunities. It isn't worth it.
