Two beers or not two beers, that is the question
I have been in Japan for over a week now and I have managed to drink alcohol every single day since I came here :-) I have gone out for dinner 5 or 6 times with old friends and new friends, colleagues and host families so even though I study 6-7 hours a day the evenings pretty much look like a normal vacation. Next week's schedule is already building up so I guess it continue like this :-) Maybe I should just drink soda when going out..... naaaa
When school was over this friday I meet with Asuka, a girl I have been mailing with, for some time now. Together with three of her friends, 1 gaijin (foreigner) and 2 native, we went to an Okonomiyaki restaurant. Tokyo-okonomiyaki and Osaka-okonomiyaki is different and last time I was in Japan my colleague Mr. Mizuuchi, who is from Osaka, spend a long time explaining the difference to me but unfortunately I have forgotten most of it (ごめんね、水内さん). Kanto area (Tokyo, Yokohama, ...) and Kansai area (Osaka, Kyoto, ...) also speak somewhat differently. So for us Kanto-people Kansai dialect is difficult to understand. Kanazawa is also from Osaka and last time I was in Japan she had a strong Kansai accent but this time it had completely disappeared.

I forgot to take a picture of the Okonomiyaki, so here is a picture I swiped from a Japanese website instead

Is this some sort of excuse to avoid going on "The PizzaFish Binge To End All PizzaFish Binges" with Jens who is getting better day by day?
PizzaFish...Fiskenet...Hvorfor dukker der så mange fiske-referencer op hver gang vi mødes?
I am not the one faking some old man's illness just to avoid going out with my pizzafish buddies.
