More Karaoke and Fun

Today was the last time that all of the AFS students from Miyazaki got together. I biked into the city to meet Andrea at about 10am, and we then caught the bus to Aeon (the mall). We picked up some bits and bobs (mainly bits) and then went back to the station to meet Mitchell at 11. I brought one of the elementary school caps which is going to be ultra cool back home (yeah right). They’re even reversable, and look really scene. I picked up a bento lunch for $3 from Aeon as well, and thought I might was well go for chicken nanban since I won’t be able to get it much longer (it’s the best thing ever).

We bussed back to the station and met Mitchell (who had started walking to Aeon), and then went to the park for lunch and present time. We had some good old fashioned fun at the park, running around trees and things of the sort (the whole sequence of photos looks the best).

That was the last time that Mitchell will see her for most likely quite some time, but I will still see them both. We took some purikura as well to commemorate the occasion (click the one to the left to see the rest).

Afterwards, Mitchell and myself killed time in the park, and went off to Karaoke later on. It was, well, karaoke. After it was finished, I was running a little late (I was meant to be home by 6.30pm), so I had to walk to the station to pick up my bike. I looked frantically amongst a sea of a few thousand bikes to try and find mine (they all look the same here), and then panic set in when I realized that it wasn’t there. I was sure that I hadn’t parked it in the outside park, so I phoned Mitchell who saved the day. There is two underground bike carparks, and silly old me had just forgotten where I left it.

After wasting 15 minutes looking for my bike, I was late home which I felt really bad about (since it was originally six and I asked to move it to 6.30pm).

Today is my last day of school, and I am going in from 11.50am because they have tests. I’ve almost moved from the sadness of leaving to having accepting it and looking forward to getting back. I packed my bags last night which felt really weird, and it looks like I’m going to make the weight restrictions for luggage (I only get 20kgs!). I’m really glad I sent home that box like a month ago. I’m going to take a bajillion photos today, so hopefully I can find time to put them on my blog before I get back.
