The reception was a standing party on the top floor of a fancy hotel, which felt a bit out of place.<br \/>\nSince it wasn&#8217;t a wedding for someone my age, I was surprised by the age difference! I was surprised by M-Shima&#8217;s drinking! We wrapped it up quickly.<br \/>\nCongratulations, truly! Clap clap!<br \/>\nAnd today was Ueno\u2014or rather, Yushima. We navigated the Hibiya and Chiyoda lines and arrived.<br \/>\nWe met up with my friend M-Sawa at Doutor! We ate a beloved Milano Sandwich A and headed to the venue.<br \/>\nSurrounded by people we barely knew, we just went along with the flow of the ceremony.<br \/>\nListening to a suspicious foreign priest&#8217;s broken Japanese, I could barely hold back from laughing.<br \/>\nWe ate downstairs, listened to speeches, and clapped along.<br \/>\nBeing a bride must be tough\u2014how many times do they change outfits? Everyone seems to go to the spa beforehand to prepare.<br \/>\nThe second party was supposed to be around Ueno Station, so we moved there. We had some time to kill,<br \/>\nso we played &#8216;Mahjong Fight Club 5&#8217; at the arcade.<br \/>\nThe play was so terrible I got discouraged. Three melds was standard, and everyone was going for all-in on dealer ready hands and non-dealer ready hands!<br \/>\nIn the end I got hit with a double limit and finished in third place\u2014game over. What a terrible game.<br \/>\nCongratulations again to \u25cf\u25cf on your marriage!<br \/>\nFormal wear is exhausting\u2014my feet are blistered on both sides. Well then, see you!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Yesterday and today I attended back-to-back weddings\u2014what a celebration! I really worked hard last week for this.
