GOSH! Only TWO people want to hear from me?? Clearly this is not a well read blog. Probably becuase I'm inconsistent. Oh and bad at returning calls. Some cool highlights from the past month or so since the last entry: NYC! As most of you know, I went to NYC and saw my two most favorite NYC girls! My poor friend Susan had the pleasure of partying with me for 1.5 weeks straight practically. And Esther, who luckily lives in Jersey, babysat me for a couple of nights too. We watched Aladdin. J Thanks so much to you two for showing me a GREAT time!! I missed you guys so much! Now your turn to visit me!! It was quite wild, as some photos might show. However, I will save you the pain of viewing all of them, as I am not very photogenic when I’m wasted. :P Again, did not hit up many touristy places. It’s been my 4th visit or so now, and still haven’t made it to the Empire State Building or the Statue of Liberty. However, I did make it to some interesting places and saw some awesome people I haven’t seen in forever! Cool Places - Staten Island for Arthur’s BBQ (and White Castle….). Great food and great company! Even if we were all hungover…
- Experienced the nightlife in NY, as I’d never been to NY after I turned 21
- Several nice restaurants, one where me and Susan Lee ate a CHEESECAKE TREE!
- Columbia campus. Beautiful, as I remember it. Susan and I got a nice tour of the campus and its dorm life from Lemuel.
- Century 21, finally! But honestly, not all that impressed. Though I spent quite a good deal of money.
- Jersey! Where I ate dinner at a Mexican restaurant with Esther and brought our own liquor to make magueritas! And watched Aladding with Esther and Dave while we fell asleep all on the same bed….
- A broadway show, Avenue Q, which was SO good. I had low expectations bc it was a puppet show. Little did I know I would be laughing my ass off.
- Nicole Miller show! Thanks to Susan's fashion PR friend. Gosh, what am I doing in TECH PR??
- Iron Chef Morimoto's resturant for dinner! My first and only celebrity citing in NY~
Peeps: - All of Susan’s lovely friends! Now I can finally put a face to all the gossip. J
- My pen pal from like, middle school! Jamay (and her Venga Boys fan little bro, who is not so little anymore)!
- Jenny! I interned with her in SF and we obsessed over 24 together. She came in all the way from Boston!!
- Dave, Esther’s BF, who is less intimidating than I remember. ;) Atleast that is the conclusion I drew after watching Aladdin with him!!
- Lillian, who was there visiting with others. There were actually a million people I didn’t know would be there, or lived in NY….such as KEVIN KWAN, who I ran into at Susan’s friend’s bday party!!
- Then all the SF crew: Susan L., Arthur, Isaac, Lijay + others
Photos to prove I was there:
Cheesecake Tree = Death
Underbar and one guy representative of Susans 50 guy friends that joined us...
Staten Island and Arthur's BBQ - Classic Arthur face. OH and saw kiddo pics of him too!
Ike met us up in NY! He had us all go to an Element Lounge in NY! hahaha
Ms. Nina Oestlien from work even made it out!!
I went to eat at Iron Chef Morimoto's restaurant! And yes we saw him. :)
Me and BB Est after Nicole Miller show and before Aladdin in Jersey! Quite a mix of events that night~
Nicole Miller show - Too bad all the celebs were sitting on our side, so we couldn't see their faces.
Pen pal Jamay and not so little JOE! Our dad's used to room together at MIT!
Miss Jenny Ng came all the way from Boston! Will be seeing her soon in SF too. :) Halloween! I had so much fun in NY, spent so much money, and ate so much Korean food drunk~! Red Hot Chili Peppers Concert! All I gotta say is, awesome! Well worth the $XXX. I won’t say how much it actually cost, just that we had amazing seats. J And someone thought my t-shirts wouldn’t be a hit!!! The BART ride was interesting, and so was the mosh pit!
Our View
Our Beers
Our AWESOME shirts!!! Meghahertz Left L After about a year of good times with Ms. Megha, she left for London. What luck that they were able to set that up so quickly. With a snap, she was ready to leave. And though she broke everyone’s hearts the day she left, we put our heads together and sent her off well. It included good food, drinks, laughs and hangovers! Oh and some nasty old businessmen at a hotel and a very uncomfortable dance with some salsa instructor….
Work Some interesting moving parts to some tech projects I’m working on, though they’re draining me out! We won’t discuss them too much. I helped staff a Cathay Pacific Airways Best Chinese Food in the Air luncheon last week though! It was super cool. They flew in their chef from Hong Kong, and we pulled all the Cathay Pacific people together and invited a bunch of ethnic media to join us EAT! I had so much fun. Dodgers game last weekend! Only picture I'm willing to post.....
