Last Night Karaoke

So my last night here in Tokyo we went to dinner and Karaoke, i wasn't sure about this. Plus, all the people that I really enjoyed hanging out with had to still work or couldn't come tonight. But it turned out to be pretty fun. We went to this place close to my hotel. Now Karaoke is quite different than it is in the US. In the US it is in front of everyone on a stage or something, in Japan they put you in a room withyour group and you go at it. Now, I think that I would rather sing in front of a crowd rather than a few it seems strange. Like you are singing to them. One of the guys we went with is a pro at this type of thing... I was impressed actually. They ordered drinks and the festivities started. I sang a few duets and 1 song on my own. I realize that you really have to know the whole song for this activity to work, I know choruses, not the whole song. It was fun and I think that this would be something that would be so fun at Maggies Parties. We got Toshi to sing, actually he sang two songs, one was a duet. They were really happy that I came along and sang, apparently I am the first from GFT-Ada to do that. I have taken two videos, but none of me. I have to pack up my suitcases for my trip back. How does a woman pack 3 weeks of clothes and all the gifts to come home.
