Day 2108 ( Best Japanese Frozen Foods )
Thursday, December 26, 2013
Had to work again at the YMCA. Same 2 classes, eat lunch, then leave. Later on I paid my credit card bill then sent some money to my dad for his Christmas/birthday present. He apparently had me when he was 51 years old, maybe that is why I maybe a bit off at times :) don't blame me!

Day 2109 ( Dinner with Friends 1 )
Friday, December 27, 2013
Work again at the YMCA, only 2 days to go. I surprise myself by actually waking up early enough for these classes when they start at 10 !! Later on I had dinner with a couple friends. 4 Americans and 7 Jamaicans. Can you identify the 4 Americans?
We ate, chatted and laughed for a while. We even did some random poetry as well. A friend in the group also gave me this Christmas present.

Day 2111 ( Dinner with Friends 3 / Dancing in the Clubs)
Sunday, December 29, 2013
Today was the last day of the Christmas program at the YMCA.... Hip hip horayyy. Afterwards I met up with some Jamaican girls who wanted to visit Kamakura, an old capital of Japan. I think this would be my third time going there to look at the Big Buddah statue. But I could never find this place on my own.
We then went to Shibuya at Good Wood Terrace Jamaican restaurant in Shibuya.
While we were there, a famous Japanese Reggae dancer "Ivan" stopped by. Quite a few dancers and reggae artist frequent this restaurant to sorta rest a bit before hitting the clubs nearby to perform. I knew about Ivan as soon as I came to Japan in 2008. I had him as a friend on facebook and seen him several times. But this was the first time meeting him in person.
He invited me and another friend of mine to a dancing party nearby. He said I would go in free if I did a small favor for him .... So I agreed and I went in free along with my friend. It was an interesting favor might I add, I shall give no more details ;) But it involved dancing on stage.
There was another party keeping afterwards so I also went in with 2 of my friends. This party was a anniversary party by a group of relatively famous Japanese selectors that call themselves "Power Players". This was a big disappointment for me and my friends who went. Here is a video of what happened at the party. Viewer's Discretion Advised ....

Day 2112 ( Most Viewed Blog Postings of 2013 / Wolverine)
Monday, December 30, 2013
Missed my stop again after coming in this morning and falling asleep on the train. Luckily a train came soon enough. I got back to my apartment and slept for a good portion of the day. When I woke up, I watched Wolverine, which was sort of a waste of time. Poor acting, poor story line, except for the twist near to the end, and over all just didn't grab my attention even though most of it was filmed in Japan. The last 3 minutes when the other X-men showed up was the highlight of the movie for me. If Professor X and Magneto didn't show up, I would've given this movie a 3/10. But because they showed up, I give it a 4/10.

My View of the Zimmerman Debacle
posted on July 16, 2013
America will always be America and if you don't have enough evidence to prove something, you are going to lose your case in court. There is no doubt in my mind though that race was a major part of the final decision. There is now the controversial "Stand Your Ground" thing.
Last Day in Singapore / Jamaican Men Not to Date
posted August 5, 2013
I am unsure what made this post so popular. Whether it is the Singapore part or the Jamaican men not to date part. I assume it is the latter. Because the post before this, in which I detailed about my trip to Singapore only got 266 hits to date.

Day 2113 ( )
Tuesday, December 31, 2013
Stayed in again for the most part. Then went to Roppongi, Tokyo with a couple of friends. So I basically rang in the New Year at the Roppongi station exit 3. Me and a few friends went to a club. They were playing hip hop / rap exclusively. It was kinda fun for a while then my restless friend said he wants to hear some Jamaican music. So we left at about 2 or 3 am and went to Shibuya.
We went to Shibuya but the females weren't feeling the club vibes so only the males went to club in Shibuya where a reggae style party was going on. It wasn't so bad.
It is weird. I almost never go to clubs or parties like these in Jamaica. What happened? Japan happened. The need to just get out of my apartment and not fall into depression or isolation has lead a few of us here to just pretty much do anything to have fun and keep or sanity..... If I stay in my apartment by myself for over 2 days, I feel the need to get out and go somewhere. Anywhere... Especially to see other Jamaicans. And even better to experience Jamaican culture. Last year I rang in the New Year at my church with my family, friends and then girlfriend. Seemed almost perfect. And this year ??? Oh well, it is what it is.
