July 24, 2005 – Celebrating 11 days in a row

Posted by Barniferous in Drinking, Friends and coworkers, Karaoke on July 24, 2015

Today was the end of my stretch of 11 days of work in a row after my vacation! I survived!

After work I went with some other teachers for “a beer” at the nearby izakaya. While we were there we decided to have some sushi, which required “a few beers”. The Sunday late shift joined us at the izakaya, which lead to “a few more beers”.

At this point, we decided to hop on a train towards Numazu and go for “just an hour” of karaoke. You can probably imagine how that turned out. At some times we had 15 people in our room, and we only showed up with 8. I love celebrating in Japan!!

June 22, 2005 – Dangerous new deals at the izakaya

Posted by Barniferous in Drinking, Life in Japan on June 22, 2015

Holy crap – my favourite izakaya now has 1000 yen all you can drink for 90 minutes. 100 yen beer nights have the potential to be dangerous, but all you can drink on a timer is just asking for trouble. Unlike some of my friends, I took it VERY easy on the all you can drink both because I have to work tomorrow and because I ate a huge dinner and was still full.

If you can’t get drunk for cheap in Japan, you are drinking in the wrong places.

Only 64 lessons left until my vacation!
