Day 25: 7 Bowls!

Bugger! It is currently 23:30 where I am, I had such grand plans for my free night, however I overate ate at the ramen shop. Combining the overload of food and my current constant exhaustion lead to me to say to myself "I'll just rest my eyes for a little bit" (Has there ever been such a prolific lie to oneself?). Also, why is it so easy to fall asleep watching TV? It's like they want ou to fall asleep and not remember what you just watched/waste electricity!

Anyway, including today I only had 7 bowls left. 7 bowls. 7 BOWLS

This happens with every 7 day countdown in Japan! Truth!

I'm on the home stretch, not long now. I decided to go for the spicy ramen today to give myself some variety. I really am grasping at straws. Following my realisation I was ignoring information on the menu I had a double look at the red badges on 3 of the bowl on their menu.

It now pains me to look at the exciting cold ramen! 

I never realised his but those badges say that all those 3 bowls are limited to 30 bowls a day (Don't get that confused, not 30 a day per person, but that would be impressive). This being said, I have never had a problem ordering the spicy ramen. Japan really doesn't do spicy, i think i have seen Japanese people it maximum 5 times in my 100+ visits.

Lets just say that I painted this, not that I used an app

So I got to the eating, and it was a bit of a struggle, I was rather pathetic when it came to the spice today, I made it through the egg, noodles and biggest pieces of meat I could find. However, as I said before the soup has little lumps of meat in it, and I am all about the meat! It emotionally pains me to leave meat uneaten, however, it physically pained me to drink the soup. I think I can live with the emotional pain.

It still hurts to look at, both in my heart and on my tongue

I drank about 3/4 of the jug that you see in the picture above, and just as before I decided to say that the soup beat me they refilled it (Yesterday a 12 year old, today soup, what next?) You will just have to believe me that i drank all that water, I'm so manly (Tomorrow I will have a picture of me drinking every drop. No, no I won't).

If you don't see me when these 7 bowls are over, don't look at the picture at the top, or it could be you next! Or just only never eat that 7th bowls of ramen. Don't risk it!
