The Chu Hi...

On Friday, I went to have a drink at the officers club while waiting for my coworker. I like that place. Anyway we walked to the Yakatori restaurant where the premise for this Japanese restaurant is that you cook the food at the table on an open charcoal grill. My coworker has lived here for 9 yrs so it was nice going with someone whom knows about Japan. Here is a list of the different meats we ordered: chicken, meat, scallops, pork and beef tongue. I tried it all and actually thought the pork and beef tongue were good. After the dinner, we went back to Club Budweiser and when we walked in I am pretty sure they were singing Korn or some shit like that. My coworker asked if I had had a Chu Hi yet. I said no and was curious about trying one. I got the strawberry and it tasted like Hawaiian Punch. I did not think much of it and had another one. Fast forward like 45 mins and I am singing the Tatantic song with a Japanese girl whom spoke very little English. Needless to say, I believe what I had been told that the Chu Hi will sneak up on you. On Saturday, I slept in and did not make it to the Hot Springs. I was not feeling wonderful and had spent to much money from the night before. I ordered Chilis and went to the gym. At the gym, they had a big shopping event and I got a necklace with my name written in Japanese on it. I love it. I went over to where my coworker lives and we went an ate a local ramen restaurant. I have to say it was much better than my first experience with ramen. She wanted to show me this coffeehouse/bar on the beach. It was like 4 miles away. It was very cool like someplace you might see in Mexico. We only had one drink and I went home. In the future, I will take the bus to her house it cost me over 20 dollars to get there and back to base and she does not live that far. Today, I got up was headed over to the gym where the shopping event was going on. I had not realized the event also included the five story garage. I wandered up and down the garage. I bought a Japanese toy monkey for Rosalind and a lamp for me. My coworker had a get together at her house where the food was amazing chicken, cornbread, mac and cheese. It was yummy and as a staff we all watch the unrated version of forgetting sarsh marshall. It was so funny not really appropriate but funny.
