Japanese-American Idol

I don't know whether it's actually a rite of passage or not but it could not go without being done...oh yes, the Japanese art of empty orchestra, karaoke. I'll introduce you to my fellow teachers by their respective karaoke action shots. Ladies and gentlemen, your Japanese-American/British Idols!!

Jeff - striped polo, from North Carolina...highlight - belting out a mean rendition of Coolio's "Gangsta's Paradise"
Stacy - black dress, red necklace, from Colorado...highlight - total solo performance of "Waterfalls" by TLC
Susan - red hair, yellowi cardigan deal, from Virginia...highlight - Chris Brown "Kiss Kiss" - she made a habit of picking songs and then not singing them
TJ - pink t-shirt, from LA (UCLA, not USC)...highlight - voraciously searching, finding and throwing down Peter Cetera "Glory of Love"
Brian - multi-colored button down shirt, from Sacramento...highlight - aside from music, we bought whiskey from a very energetic convenient store worker and joined in extended effort to get Stacy to buy us Japanese porn (very prominently displayed)
Adam - guy with the bandana around his neck, from North Carolina...highlight: totally monotone reading of "Pass That Dutch" - Missy Elliott
Mariah - flowery shirt...from within 150 miles of Liverpool, England...highlight: among many was anything rapped and the Beatles medley

This night contained too many Asahi's, a mile walk there and back, a trip to the convenient store for whiskey (no porn) and waking up with a raging hangover which I am battling as I write. Enjoy pictures, please.

  1. I've decided that Jeff looks like a less Hebrew version of Elliot Yamin!
