Karaoke

Sunday was karaoke day. It was Tetsu's birthday and he had invited family and friends out to Yakiniku (焼肉). You order plates of raw meat and then fry it yourself right at the table. It was a long time since I had eaten that much meat so I filled up quickly. I also met Sergei, a Russian working at the same travel agency as Tetsu did. He had studied at Tokai university where incidentally he met Jens. It's a small world after all.


Do it yourself yakiniku
After dinner we went across the street to some good old fashion karaoke. I hadn't sung karaoke since last time I was in Japan, so I did my do-re-mi and warmed up with at big bottle of hot Sake. I usually only enjoy karaoke when I am really drunk so I made sure to do my homework at the Yakiniku restaurant and filled up on beer. After a few English songs I was ready to take on Linda Linda. This is the only Japanese song I know. I rehearsed it last time I was in Japan to surprise my colleagues and I remembered almost all of it. やった
