Summer Lovin, happened so faaaaaaast
Uh huh, Uh huh, Uh huh...
Ok, that’s my wacky ‘Grease’ moment out of the way...
SO! Summer, ay! It’s quite the sticky, filthy season I loathe here in Japan, but I have to say, my first full Summer in Japan isn’t so bad. I mean yes, the constant humidity makes me want to simultaneously neck myself and punch everyone in my immediate vicinity in the face (and that’s usually my long-suffering boyfriend) but I’ve been getting into the Summer Spirit. It’s bizarre for me, as an Australian, to be experiencing heat like this in the middle of the year. But, I’m trying to roll with it, even though stepping outside is like stepping into a cloud of slow-burning death that instantly frizzles my hair. I haven’t even attempted curling my hair this Summer.
But, there are upsides; as I might have mentioned before, Japan is an incredibly seasonal country. That means, seasonal frappuccinos at Starbucks! I’ve indulged in one too many...
That peachy goodness...
And Mango Peachy Parfait...
It also means parties, though that has a lot to do with the fact that some of my friends have been returning to their countries, so it’s been quite the bittersweet affair. In honor of our formed friendships, we’ve just been celebrating hard!
SHOTS SHOTS SHOTS
No, but seriously. I’ve been incredibly lucky to meet these people, and if they ever hit me up in Australia, I’ll be showing them the best time I possibly can!
I’ve been traveling recently, and I want to spread out my news a little, so I’ll leave you with this picture of my long-suffering man drinking a watermelon cocktail I made.
Why all the straws? We may never know.
Mata!
