October - Osaka, House warming and Busan Fireworks (1 year, 2 months)

Osaka

The first school week in October was just a three day week for me so off I went to Osaka! Not everyone was lucky and had to go into school on the Friday..... So yayyy for me! (And Marie)
Yay for me!
 So on the Friday we spent all day at Universal Studios - 9am - 8pm. The park was celebrating Halloween all month, so we could go on the rides at night time and watch an amazing zombie performance!

People visiting the theme park had taking dressing up to the extreme, ahhh Japan :) and I started to get very excited about our Halloween trip (a whole three weeks away).


We ate a LOT of Western styled food and met Hello Kitty so I would say it was a very productive day!

That evening we then went and checked the area close to where we were staying and then chilled back at the hostel.


The next day we decided to try at look at things a bit more Japanese-esque than Univeral studios....

As you can imagine - this was a super busy day - and we nearllllly didn't have the energy to go out....but of course we did. We headed to Pure nightclub which was 1500 yen all you could drink. We didn't feel like we were getting drunk but the amazing old school music and 'girls only ' sections made up for that! Butttt then as soon as we left to walk home - we all realised we were pretty drunk and make some questionable supermarket purchases! 

House warming 

I had a very delayed Housewarming this month. I headed to Costco to buy some sushi and cookies  (everyone knows that's the best recipe for a party) and everyone came round. Donuts, crisps and beer were shared.

 Then approximately one hour after everyone arrived (can I point out this was 9.15pm on a Saturday night) the police were called to stop the party. I would have understood if we were ridiculously loud (I'm not saying we were quiet...but we were not LOUD) or even if had been an elderly person in my building complaining - but it was a 20's something male....... I can see that you are a fun person to be around.....


But yeah, anyway we moved my roof party to Sugar Joes roof party and continued from there! Before we knew it, it was 2am and then I was playing Beer Pong in Bombay Lounge and thennnn eating KFC.


The day after the party Nina, Paudi, Winnie and Adam came round to chill (eat the food that was left over) and we then had a walk around KNU area. I LOVE living in my new area - the location and vibe is just so much cooler. 

Halloween

We headed to Busan to check out the Fireworks festival which I missed last year due to the rain........and to celebrate Halloween.

I loved seeing the fireworks and the amount of kids / adults and families that wanted photos of us in our costumers was AMAZING. I went as a 'Zip Faced Zombie' and everyone put lots of effort in and I think we all looked pretty cool!


I love that AutoAwesome has given me two heads
