Yesterday night was great. We went out with my parents and had dinner at Maan Fu. It's a great place. They, of course, tried to give a taste of true Japanese culture by cramming six of us together with four other people at an eight person table. It's pretty crammed in Japan too, so we got the real effect. But they prepare your food for you at the table, do tricks, and it tastes great. At one point the trick was to toss a shrimp off a spatula into my mouth. Like five shrimp ricocheted off of me. Some hit me in the face, some hit my sweatshirt, and others just fell short. I didn't mind, cause it was all the more shrimp I could eat, but then I realized that every shrimp that missed, my dad picked up and ate... Dinner was great, and it was really cool for Maggie and I to spend time with my family. We both loved it. Then we went to Kohls and my dad acted like a geek so as to get the maximum embarrassing effect on my sisters and mom. It was really funny. That was some of the most fun I've had in a long time. Those kind of restaurants are my favorite. Thank you to my mom and dad. You guys are the greatest.
