Fill In The Blanks
I've got a lot of studying to do tonight (I have two exams tomorrow afternoon plus a date with Mako) but I'd like to try and catch up with the events of last week.
Thursday: I don't think there's that much more to say outside of my drunk post on Thursday night, except to clarify that these Moroccan girls were the same girls I met in Umeda last month. Other than drinking, talking and flirting nothing happened.
Friday: As summarized here, I was hung over on Friday from my night out with the Moroccan girls. I even threw up that morning, probably because I mixed beer and wine (both red and white). I spent most of Friday walking around in a daze and somehow managed to take a major exam in the afternoon. I got that test back today, by the way, and I scored a 99%. Sometimes, my power is beyond my understanding.
The big event that evening was a party in Osaka hosted by the cool teacher who I've mentioned several times in this blog. Every semester he arranges a party at this exclusive-looking club in Osaka (specifically the Kita-Shinchi neighborhood near Umeda) so that the students have an opportunity to hang out in a locale normally too expensive for them to see. Since I was hungover I tried to rationalize skipping the party but since I had already bought the tickets I felt like it would be incredibly wasteful not to go. In the end, I decided it was better to go and enjoy the live music without drinking much of anything.
I had tried to invite a number of people to come, including Kazu and Mako. In the end convinced Scott to go. He had been a little reluctant to invest in the evening but ultimately I think he felt it was worth it to see such a place for once. By the time the evening rolled around I was completely over my hangover anyway so I felt pretty good. Scott and I chilled out by ourselves for a while and showed up around the scheduled start time of 8PM.
The club was very small and felt like someone's apartment. Indeed, it was comparable to Hyde's apartment in size and its impressive view of the city (although Hyde's apartment is much higher up). There was an awkward amount of furniture sitting around which made traversing the room very difficult. Not many people were there at first because (of course) most people don't come to a party when it actually starts. The crowd didn't really build up until after 9. I only had one drink (a White Russian) and milked it (pun intended) for a long time.
With the crowd came the pressure to dance. I wasn't nearly intoxicated enough to relax and succumb to the music but eventually I did get up and dance a little bit. Somehow, I always found myself stuck in between another dude's back and one of the sofas. I definitely had fun and I didn't regret my decision to go at all but I did feel very tired and I was eager to leave before it got too late.
That about does it, I think. I've said all that can be said about Saturday and Sunday. The only ongoing internal "dilemma" I've got boiling right now is Mako and I'm going to see her tomorrow before I explore that matter in any detail. In short, I think she loves me and I've got to figure out if I'm ready to love her in return. Not a bad dilemma to have as dilemmas go.
See you tomorrow!

I've got an internal debate that I'm briskly trying to turn into an external one. God, I NEED THIS. GIVE ME MORE.
Patience, Burke (LOL!). By the time you wake up tomorrow I'm sure I'll have more to say on the matter.
