Weekend Madness.

Well, what a fun filled weekend it was. Things i did on my long weekend:
Went to Karaoke with some mates.
Went to an all night club in Osaka
Broke up with my girlfriend.
Cancelled on Ryan......again.
Had Sushi dinner with Ned and Megan and my "ex".
Watched Azumanga Daioh.
Played maaad BB gun wars in an indoor location in Uozaki.
Almost got blinded by friendly fire in the "safe zone".
Got into a car chase with the local police when the driver of my car (who was caught in a speed trap) did not stop for the cops and opted to make a break for it.

So, overall quite a fun filled weekend :|

Where to start ? Well...Osaka. Great fun. Rob and Richard and myself. Along with 3 girls I met online. Yes that sounds dubious. But allow me to explain !! I set up something on line for the S.Africans that were here (read further down) for 3 weeks. Just looking for cool people to go out with nothing dodgey or lewd. And a few people responded. One group of which were these young lasses. Strangely enough two of them had seen me before. I eventually recognised the one girl. It must have been well over a year back - which is really interesting. They used to work part-time in the Sweet Factory. I was wearing a Karate wind breaker that was made in South Africa (and had bad kanji on it). The kanji was kaze to ken which essentially means wind and fist (as opposed to the much cooler sounding kaze no ken which would mean fists of wind). Anywho- they said my name from then on was kazetoken no hito (the kazetoken guy). That was really cool to here (just a mild ego booster :P) Anyways, Yuko took a fancy to Rob, Rich took a fancy to Masako and I think Kazuko might have liked me- though im still trying to decipher what she was saying. (Poor girl didnt speak any english). I gotta admit that after 2 and a half years in Japan im still sucking a bit at judging characters. I thought i had them pegged from the first 15 minutes- but in the lat few days ive been proved very wrong. Anywho...

Next was the all night party. Osaka- Sam and Daves baby..Umeda. My favourite place in Japan. Why ? Fun music, a clean club, decent drinks and nausiatingly sexy women. Now...in the year that I dated M. I only went there thrice (for obvious reasons). Two out of three times of which were in the last month - as you may see the report from the other blog entry. Well- Rob succeeded in getting us thoroughly hammered by insisting on the consumption of Mexico's finest export. I politely declined on the 3rd round of said export, knowing that it would be horrible and i'd definitely wind up like Rich did the following morning. (Not to mention the possibility of doing something stupid, when at this time i was still with M.) Anywho- there was much drunkeness- I introduced two ladies to the boys (ever the pimp). We danced...the one girl got a bit freaky and thought that I was "hers" -even though I said i have a girlf (see "Monkeys in Trees"). bviously make clear it wasnt gonna happen . Foozball was played - Rob is a foozball shark. Heed this warning. He is also quite the playa..wound up kissing one of the two random girls that we met. (her ex boyf showed up later- perfect timing for us to make an exit). This was probably about the time Rich lost his wallet !

i'll fill you in on the rest later....
