Day 16: A Re-Jun-ion??

We went to Sapporo. Jun found us. Sean complained about a bag of food. I got crunk.

While sitting outside the Sapporo Terminal we heard a very familiar "Seeon San" (he says my name differently every time he tries to get my attention) coming from a small scurrying creature off in the distance, obviously it was Jun. He was happy to see us and as always, moved around very frantically and hurried, apparently he was meeting a friend near the terminal at 5:00 and didn't want to be late. It was almost 4:00. He quickly directed us to the Sapporo House Youth Hostel, (pointed in the general direction) so we headed out figuring we'd get lost. Only circled the block once or twice before finding the always clearly and largely posted triangle/river/tree youth hostel organization sign (see this is funny because the sign is actually tiny and often faded. pretty sure its a dirty trick set up by the youth hostel association to ensure their guests are worthy of staying) So we checked in, payed (most expensive place thus far), and headed to our room. Turns out 6 other men would be staying with Jun, Christopher, and me...the room was probably meant for 4 maybe 5 people. It was time for dinner by the time Jun made it back from his meeting so we found a ramen shop nearby. Sapporo is famous for their style of ramen, christopher was a erupting inside im sure . After our bowl of salt water and a few noodles i was in the mood for something a little more filling, so back to the room for the famous water/protein combo. so delicious. Once satisfied i got going on the blog, and with nothing to keep them occupied, Christopher and Jun left in search of beer. As i found out later their search must have been successful. very successful. By 4:00 the next morning they returned to the room in very high spirit. Christopher was raging over a pair of girls they met and jun just really wanted some water. From what i gathered they enjoyed themselves. Oh and apparently a couple of guys really liked what christopher had to offer. yaahhhhooooo! Im pretty sure he said he just danced with them so its fine (that may or may not be a complete lie)

I feel its also important to mention that while Christopher and Jun were out slaying baby girls all night and while i was in the room going to work on the blog and skype, one of the roommates tore in a bag of what looked to be...nothing at all like food. It smelled even less like food. Imagine a combination of nasty dank mcdonalds play place vinegar feet and pure sulfer. it was rough. Basically that tiny bag unleashed one of the worst smells in the world and that smell quickly permeated/stained everything in the room. But that guy really seemed to enjoy it. I guess one bag wasn't enough because half an hour later out came another.

ps i hate this website, the auto save feature, myself for not saving, just something. i finished two blogs, went to save and move on and a window popped up instructing me to log on. everything was lost.
