The fourth and final day in a row!

Well, saturday i woke up with a huge hangover after drinking three nights in a row at the ALT mid year conference! After my alarm waking me up at Dans i struggled to get up and out the door so i could go to one of the last enkais for the village office. Slowly but steadily i got to the meet on time, only to have to play beach volleyball for the next 3 hours. Needless to say it was murder and i felt like arse! After volleyball we all gathered up near where i work and had a party! I originally was just gonna drink a little bit coz i was buggered but the japs kept coming up to me and filling up my glass with sake or beer even if it wasnt the slightest bit empty. So after a while the old ladies where drunk and were quite funny. at one stage i looked over and there was headmaster of the kindergarden yelling out as a toast, "CHIN CHIN", which in japanese means penis. a little later after joining their table, i found out that chin chin actually is how u say CHEERS in French. phew! anyways, as per usual, by about 8 most had piked and gone home, but i stayed on for the after party and the after party's after party. During that time, some drunken father of one my junior high schools 2nd year students, told me that his daughter thought it would be better off me not being here (teaching in Japan). This shocked me a little bit (i mean, how would you reply to this after having a few?) so i listened to what the knobchops had to say and regurgitated most of what we had been told at the mid year conference. After that we all had quite enough of the guy and pissed off home to bed! Finally, theres some light at the end of the tunnel.
