Happy Halloween!!

OK so halloween has come and gone...but the story of my exploits on halloween remain. Although I usually don't celebrate halloween in any way, shape or form, this year was different. Since I'm living in another country at the moment and we have a few American students here that LOVE halloween I thought...yeah why not join in the silliness. And silliness there was...we decided to celebrate halloween on the 27th rather than the 31st because well...its was a Friday night...and the clubs in Susukino were having their halloween parties on the 27th...sounds like a good enough reason for me...


There's a photo of me in my costume+a monkey mask in my apartment...


That's us on the subway heading into the city...and yes...we were getting really funny looks.

And so the night begins as usual...at an 居酒屋 (izakaya)...at 日の出(Hinode...or Sunrise) to be exact...the place that we usually go to. So we get the 飲み放題 of course...2hrs unlimited drinks...and being in costumes, we get the attention of other customers at the place as well...they take photos with us...we have a few drinks...some girl tries to unzip the green ranger's costume...you know...the usual...


OK so who do we have here...that's Tyrone in the Spiderman mask...Brian in the Godzilla PJs...Cody in the monkey mask...Nhat in the Dragonball outfit (I wasn't the only one...) and the mysterious Green Ranger of justice (aka Heath...)


Requisite drinking photo...yeah not everyone we were with wore costumes...so there's Ono (in b/w Spiderman and Godzilla), Hiroshi (dude in glasses on the left)...Chris in a Jason mask...and err...Jack (Chinese dude in glasses on the bottom right...)

The foreigners downing whiskey shots...always with the whiskey...

Anyway...once well and truly toasted we decided to hit a club...King Xmhu...finally...it's known as the best club in Sapporo and I've never been to it on a club night...until now...but before that...



Here's a photo of us (minus me as I was taking the photo) with a bunch of random, complete strangers on the streets of Susukino, heading toward King Xmhu...

And so...we reach the club...3000yen entry fee...1 free drink...yeah it's an expensive cover charge for a club here but...well...it was worth it anyway...the music was good...all mix...a bit of hip hop...a bit of house...unfortunately no hard trance...heh...the crowd was good...a few foreigners but not too many (unlike Booty...)


Pictured here in the middle is a drag queen DJ in a maid outfit...not pictured...the 2 other drag queens dancing on stage...the whole crowd wasn't like this OK ppl...it jus so happens...thats the special guests that they had at the club on halloween...no smart arse comments pls...


And here's me doing a stupid Dragonball pose with Mike...some dude I met at the club whos from England and is here teaching english at some private english teaching school...

So all in all...a decent night out...well that wasn't really the case for Chris...as at one stage he thought he'd lost his wallet and got really down abt that...so we were running around asking various staff members and the like if they had seen a wallet or has a wallet been handed in to anyone and...there wasn't...so as we were leaving, we head to the lockers to get our stuff and lo and behold...Chris's wallet was in the locker the whole time...hehe...yeh we gave him shit for that...so at abt 3am or so we all split a taxi home where after I fall asleep for abt an hr or 2...wake up...have a quick shower to get all that shitty gel outta my hair...I pass out until 2pm or so Sunday afternoon...
