Shao Chan's Hokkaido Adventure - シャオちゃんの北海道の旅

So the snow has finally begun to stay, winter is here! >_< My bike is basically frozen now, so much for that...haha

On Friday, we had a CLASS field trip to guess what...? A BEER FACTORY!! Yes, the Asahi beer factory on the outskirts of Sapporo. It was actually quite fun, for more than a couple of reasons. We got to see the inside of the factory, bottling, brewing, etc, and then we were led into a cafeteria where we were able to LIMITLESSLY drink their beer and have snacks for 20 minutes!! Needless to say, I had more than one, the asahi 'super dry' their most popular, and then their dark beer, which was also good. One of my friends Andy, had 8 beers and was significantly wasted by the end of the time. And I will also admit, only eating a small lunch, that I was thoroughly buzzed afterwards. So after they get the whole class drunk, they take us to watch a movie on the Asahi company, which INSTANTLY becomes hilarious, because we're drunk...hahaha There were parts where they talked about their commitment to the environment, and I remember laughing out loud with a couple other people...O__o lol

And thats is why, Japan is not the United States, because not a single time did ANYONE get carded!!! Hurray

And then its also important to note that later that evening, (this weekend was heavily influences by alcohol by the way) I bought an entire bottle of captain morgan rum, and me and my friend cait almost finished it while watching family guy with Andy...who had his own bottle of southern comfort!

AND THEN there was Saturday night. That night there was another Apatrida (student run bar)Xmas party. All you can drink/eat for about 15 USD So again, I was drunk, but not as much as the night before.

And its important to note that the whole time these events were unfolding, I had a cold...and a sore throat, and was on medication...OOOOPPS??!

And that's the weekend!

As for classes, I got a really good score on my Grammar Midterm test, 90/100!! Don't ask me how, I call it luck, but i was SO happy. And on my other midterms...lets see

Oral: 18/20
Writing: 21/25

So, its looking pretty good so far in terms of classes.
