Back to Prison

I've been having a really great time recently. Figures, just as I'm leaving for home. But everything will still be here when I get back, I suppose.

Firstly, for a departing friend, we had a little farewell party, and went back to Alcatraz ER, the hospital/prison themed place. I was the only one who had been there before, but it was fun the second time round anyway.

We ordered this “Russian Roulette” Okonomiyaki (they’re like balls with sauce, they’re usually very tasty). I didn’t exactly know what the Russian Roulette referred to until I tried it. Apparently in every dish they have ONE surprise okonomiyaki that is pretty much just a ball of wasabi, and of all the people there I got the ONE (of course). It was akin to death. I couldn’t breathe for like 20 minutes. It took me around 15 minutes to eat the damn thing, because I would have to compartmentalize and swallow a tiny portion of it (I put it all in my mouth at once, so I couldn’t just stop, I had to eat it). But it was in my mouth for about 20 minutes total. I needed to help it along with water and cabbage, but eventually I got it all down. I can’t describe how horrible that experience was.
Then the prison riot this time was nuts. A bunch of guys in thongs came out and put their crotches in a friend’s face, which was pretty funny. Then they grabbed a customer, and put him on the floor. But instead of burning his pubic hair, this time they just stripped his shirt and twisted his nipples and lightly touched the flame to them. It looked horrifying. The guy was like “STOP! STOP!” But they kept going. Then they started massaging his crotch and squeezing it. Then they put his legs over his head, and took this man-sized syringe, and basically butt-raped him with it (luckily his pants were on, but they were pushing pretty hard up his butt). It was the most bizarre thing ever.

Then the next night, I had another great all-nighter. It was great fun. We did pretty much all of the essential Japanese activities in one night. First, we went to eat Udon (I think that’s what it was) for really cheap, then we went to an arcade and played games for a long time. I saw Tekken 6, which looked really pretty and cool. I versed a friend in a racing game. Then we went to an Izakaya, and played a ton of drinking games. Then afterwards, we went to Karaoke for a few hours, which was a lot of fun again. After that, we snuck into a friend’s dormitory, although it wasn’t as scandalous for me, because I’m a boy. But the girls were pretty nervous about it, especially when they had to pee, they thought they would get caught. Theeen we accompanied the friend who was leaving today to the station from which he took the airport express train. It was a ridiculously long train ride. But when we caught the first train, it was completely empty, which was pretty amazing. We played around a lot, and did all of the things we’d always wanted to do on the train, but couldn’t, like swing from the handles. We rode around on trains for about 3 hours. On one of the trains, we got into the restricted car by accident, but we decided to just steal the reserved seats. When the ticket lady came around, she asked for our tickets in Japanese, and we all just pretended to be clueless foreigners. I turned to my friend and was like “What did she say? What’s going on?” But then the lady told us in English (which we weren’t counting on), so we had to do a walk of shame into the regular car, where everyone was staring at us. I finally got home around 8 AM, to a nice breakfast with my host family.
