The Weekend:

Had a pretty great time this weekend....

Friday night went out to Hubb in Roppongi with Kirk and Sunz.  Like 50 people from the Tokyo American Club where there as were Mariko and her friends.  But I left early because I wasn't feeling well.

Then Saturday evening I met up with Jon, David, and Michelle in Shimo and we got some drinks and Izakaya food at the 180円 Izakaya.

I stayed there until about 9:30 and then left to meet Kirk at Bunkamura (steps outside a movie theatre where people seem to get together) in Shibuya.  Ran into Julian there and then waited for Paul, Konrad, Sunz, and Mariko and her friends to show up.  After they showed we hopped on the bus to Ageha, the biggest club in Asia about 30mins from Shibuya.  Sunz had discount cards of various values and held them out in his hand to have us choose.  I got the black one which got me in the "Invitation" line and into the club for free.  Pretty sweet, especially since a normal ticket is 4,500円 (~$45).

Ageha wasn't what I expected.  It was my first time there and I thought it was going to be some over-crowded mess of people but it wasn't.  Yeah, it was huge, and yeah there were a lot of people, but you never had to wait for a seat or a drink at the bar.  There was a huge main dancefloor and a smaller one inside, and then a huge outdoor dancefloor with a pool and a more chilled out outdoor lounge on the ocean.  I randomly ran into Paige, Zoe, and there friend Risa near the main dance floor.  And around 3AM there were randomly poledancers on the bar:

...yeah.

...yeah.

We spent the last hour and a half sitting outside by the ocean, waiting for the trains to start running again and left around 5 to catch the train to our respective homes.
