I don't think I can possibly sum up the past month in Japan... I might post of a video of an update on all that. But! Tonight I met some friends, a couple who studied at my school on exchange, and we ate sashimi (raw fish) and drank beer. A dinner completely of raw fish...
I especially wanted to mention this just to say I got to try crazy stuff like shark's head (mmm cartilage), whale, crab eggs, umi no budou (lit. "sea grapes") and tentacles (or were they...?). Also had this little squid before the big sashimi boat came out... it was a whole squid, head and all. So in eating it, I had to remove the head with my chopsticks. :(
They had crazy decor at the place.
