Driiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiink!!!!

What do these items have in common: shopping, studying, bar hopping, hanging out, loss of soberness, the movies, and freakish weather? They are components of my fantabulous weekend.

Friday night I drove to Diamond Bar to go to the movies with Luis, Erika, Sebastian and his friend Sammy. We went to a sham of a theatre to see the Sponge Bob movie. It was funny, it was cute, but it was not worth the $10 admission...

Saturday morning got up at the crack of dawn (or so it felt) to pick up Eric and head to the SPLIT warehouse sale. Walked out with 6 t-shirts, 3 sweatshirts, 3 pairs of pants, 2 scarves, and 2 jackets for the slight price of $110. Luis got the best bargain of us all, walking away with a very nice leather motorcycle jacket for $25, when the tag priced it at $170. It is a great quality of leather and super comfortable and warm - I was so happy for him - he was super excited. After our shopping extravaganza, the three of us + Julie headed out to IHOP for some delectable breakfast. We finished up and decided it would behoove us to study for the afternoon, so Eric, Luis and I went to VDC and studied in the grad lounge. After that, Luis and I headed back to my place and got ready for the night. We decided to take a cab to the peninsula, where we were to meet up with Lizzie, Mark, DUSTIN, his lady-friend Serena, and Meera. I got lectured by the cab company about wanting them to pick me up at a business location, which was I thought an OK thing to do, but apparently I was misguided. We met up at the Newport Brewing Company, started off with a few rounds of beer, got to meet Serena - who is super cool, MAT CALLED FROM THE UK (which was the most awesome surprise of the night!!), ate some dinner, and discovered that there was a breathilizer in the bathroom corridoor.. I was so bummed when I realized at the end of the night that I was too drunk to remember to try the machine to see how drunk I was...After the Brewing Co, we walked across the street to Malarky's. We danced a little, we drank a lot - it was rad. Then, we hopped our way over to our favorite haunt of them all: Patrick's. Again, we drank and talked...then walked over to the fellas place for some after party fun...Now this is where the freakish weather kicks in...There was a downpour of torrential rain, which stopped minutes after it began. Then, Yagi offers to give us a ride home to Newport (via Jack in the Box) and there is strong wind, thunder, lightening and some drizzling. (I must note that the side jaunt to Jack in the Crack was so much fun - Meera, Dustin, Luis, Yagi and I all in the van laughing at life and just having a great time. Luis and I dozed off to TV on the couch while we were eating our grub...good times...

Sunday Luis and I lounged around for a bit, then I gave Luis a ride home to DB. I popped in to say hello to his family and got some yummy soup. I am so spoiled everytime I go there. Luis, Erika and I then mosied on over to the Spectrum, where we met up with Lizzie and Mark to go see "Saw"...After the flick we ate at Wahoo's, walked around - then called it a night...The weekend of fun had caught up to me...soberness was setting in and my body was exhausted...

Today has been funny...funny marketing meeting, good lunch from fatburger, treated to a coffee by Jason...good times...
