thai excursion post! finally! as promisd, i said i would recap my adventures in brooklyn with my black friends last week. rosie, ilunga, tatiana, helen, jen and i were the ones who went.
our reunion was AWESOME! honestly, its been almost 3 years but it feels lke i saw them yesterday. no forced conversation, nothing was awkward, it was sooo nice! i really had missed that crew so it was awesoe to spend several hours with them. the initial trip into brooklyn was fun--they picked me up almost 40 minutes after they had originally planned to...they were SOOO on black people time haha! we got a lil lost but got to "Sea" at around 7. we had to wait because it was mad crowded, but totally worth it. the reataraunt had dim lighting and techno music, very trendy, and had cool decorations inside. a good place for a date, in my opinion. the bar looked nice too, and we all kind of thought about ordering drinks (since it looked like they didnt ID) but we figured we would wait til we're 21. rosie turns 21 the day before i do, so i definitely want to go out with her for our birthdays somewhere.
the appretizers were sooo good--'tup tim fritters' haha funny name, amazing shrimp crab roll thingys that you dipped in a sweet chili sauce of some kind. omg soooo good! then there were chicken wings, and some kind of beef that was dipped in a soy sauce concotion that was also amazing. for my entree i had shrimp pad thai-NOTE: if you have never tried thai food before, i suggest chicken or shrimp pad thai, as it isnt as crazy spicy as some other thai dishes, and is quite delicious.
dessert was incredible!! molten chocolate cake--this warm delicious cake with warm delicious dark chocolate sauce and warm delicious raspberry sauce drizzled over the huge cake. also, you got pistachio ice cream on the side!! together it was something i would request as my last meal if i was on Death Row.
after that i got several text messages form my lifeguard friends, patricia and mike, and they proeeded to follow me to the restaraunt! i thought they were kidding but they really did, and have photographic "evidence" to prove it. they're crazy haha. we sucessfulyl evaded them and went into manhattan, where some dumbass rent-a-cop screamed at rosie for having her brighs on by accident as we came to the midtown tunnel. geez, he needs to get a new job or a hobby cause its not that serious. teenagers can make mistakes, and seriously officer, it WAS that dark where we were in brooklyn. so yes we did need them on.
and then magnolias bakery was closed =/ ive never been, but one day i will! it looked amazing from the outside. the most fun part was going through the midtown tunel playing the music from "inception" haha it was sooo epic!
anyways, the night sadly came to a close a little after 1am, and it was soooooo needed! great to hear who hates who, who's a train wreck, whos still friends, who has a baby, who got kicked out of school, etc. oh and who turned into an even bigger, fatter, uglier bitch! haha in your face you psycho skank! lmao. sorry only the 6 of us kow who im referring to and its staying that way!
anyways, time to shower before i go out...well i gotta pack for school first! leaving in a week =/
until next time!
