Dayang, today I feel like crap... literally. Last night, I ended up going out to drink with some newly made friends from my class. It was Chris` birthday and on the way to the bar, I happened to bump into some other people from class and invited them. It was such a last minute plan, but people were down so it worked out better than planned. The night started at 5:00 because in Japan, happy hour is from 4 to 7. (go figure) I ended up drinking against an alcohol goddess, although I didn`t know this at the time. Her being a big korean should have made me think more carefully, but I merely brushed it off. To sum up the night at the bar, I ended up drinking waaaaaaaaay too much... and by this description, i mean to the point that compares to the time I got mild alcohol poisoning three years ago. The korean girl and I ended up leaving early and headed home with our stomachs full of liquor.
I don`t remember all the events that happened after I stepped off the subway, but I do remember some memorable moments. (or should i say unmemorable) I yacked right when I got home, slumped over the toilet and stayed there for a good two hours. My host dad returned to find me passed out next to the can and asked if I was okay. I responded and embarassingly moved to the living room when my sleeping bag was. I woke up early in the morning, around 4, and remembered the crucial piece of information to avoid hangovers- drink water to rehydrate the body. So I decided to drink about three cups of tea and thought that it would help me when I woke up later. WRONG. I ended up waking a mere 30 minutes later and yacked all the liquid out in the living room. I cleaned the mess up before my host dad would have the chance to discover this new development, and passed out until 9. Then as I was washing my face, I managed to yack yet again! The feeling of wanting to yack remained with me throughout the whole day, and is actually still lingering as I type this. I haven`t eaten anything today because I`m afriad I will yack it straight out. But I will have to eat eventually, and I`m planning on making that day tomorrow.
In less than an hour, there will be this welcome party that I`m going to. It`s going to suck though because food and drinks will be there for the looting, but those are the exact things I should be avoiding. SHoooT. Honestly I should just skip this party to avoid getting myself into any more situations, but I`m going for sure and I guess we`ll have to see what happens. =P
