The other night a bunch of us girls decided to stay out all night and go bowling/karaokeing. Was pretty fun and ridiculous. Check out the fluorescent bowling shoes! They came out of a vending machine. Anyway, it just so happened that the day we decided to do this landed on Girls’ Day, a Japanese holiday where they celebrate girls…? So we appropriately took part by drinking fruity chu-his and some 10 pin bowling. (Everyone thought I was weird because I had never done it. They think our tiny-ball bowling is ridiculous.)

1. 5am karaoke included: Hopelessly Devoted to You, Hey Jude, All I Want For Xmas, some Japanese song, Aint No Mountain High Enough, Spice Up Your Life and many many more.

2. Girls’ Day!

3. To get bowling shoes, you put money in a vending machine, chose your size and out they came! Pink and purple!

4. I got some coaching from Claudia, who’s a pro.

5. Lucy (aka Rushi) doing some bowling alley J-pop dancing.

6. Drea is wondering what the heck these things are.
