KOBE ILLUMINATION

then we had some italian for dinner before going home.

jigged Coffee Hour (which nobody knew about until late yesterday arvo) and went to Harbourland with Erica for some shoes for the party on Friday =]


Fri 10 Dec

INTERNATIONAL STUDENT PARTY

went to Takarazuka hotel with host family for the KGU international student party. it was fun to go out dressed up nicely for once and to see everyone else dressed up.

pigged out on the food (where you had to be quick otherwise there`d be none left) and camwhored.

then some of us went for allnighter k for an afterparty. we k-ed in our beloved (it seems) shidax cos it was much cheaper than the jankare in tsukaguchi and k-ed till 5am. then we went to nishikita hoping to bum in maccas for a bit to learn that it was still closed. so we went to the maccas in kotoen and sat there eating and chatting for a couple hours till bout 9 something AM.


Sat 11 Dec

slept through the whole day till 9PM something. so in order to fix up the body clock i decided to just stay up all night studying before going out the next day
