Since I'm in my last week of being in Okinawa I've been trying to get those last bits of my favorite things in like tiramisu parfait at Bikuri Donkey and Mos Chicken. I've also been enduring the hardship (not really) of an endless run of soubetsukai (farewell parties). Friday was yakiniku at Yakiniku Jack with the other ALT at my base school and my coordinator. After yakiniku we went to karaoke. Fun! Fun! Fun! This was soubetsukai, part one, at my base school since my ALT buddy left last Saturday for a two week trip to see his family.
The other reason we, as a department, couldn't celebrate all together that Friday was because the teacher test was on Sunday. In the English department alone, we have five substitute teachers at the moment. All of them were cramming last minute studying in while we were grilling meat and drinking beer and singing until we lost our voices. Zannen. So to make up for it, for soubetsukai, part two, we went to OmoroHouse in Shintoshin. Oishiiii!! The maguro sashimi was especially delish. Seriously, how can raw fish be better at one place than any other. It's just raw fish, right? Everything else was really yummy including the somen champuru and ume budo, and that was probably the last time I'll get to have those two foods for a while. Zannen. :( I even had some awomori just to make sure I covered all my last of the last Okinawan bases. I still like it, but I think I might like to try it with some cranberry juice and lime, perhaps. Throw in a little soda... Mmmm. That might also explain away any questions you might have about why this post is kind of rambly. I'm not hung over so much as just really sleepy and mellow and ready for a nap. Yep. Definitely. Zzzzzzzzz...
