HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO A DEAR FRIEND, MIKE!

On the weekend of  June 28th, we celebrated our friend, Mike's birthday.
Unfortunately, I forgot the memo that the event was semi-formal, so when Dan returned from work, I borrowed his car, went to Target, and bought a dress.

Dress - Target
Headband - Choies

When I purchased the dress, I didn't try it on because I was in a mighty rush. Luckily, it looked pretty good on me and it fit.

This is me being silly in the car. Something to kill time on the ride to Sushi Palace.
The headband I purchased online.
In fact, in the month of June, I have purchased a lot of stuff online that I have been unable to take pictures of and make a haul post.
Hopefully, I can find time to do that.

Lately, we've been getting a lot of crazy weather, and when I say crazy weather, I mean, rain...
It's crazy! It's been raining when it's completely sunny outside. WHY?!

Haha! Nothing says Happy Birthday like a silly pic of the birthday boy.

This may look small, but it really isn't.
We had two sets of menus, one for each table (2).
In total, we had 4 plates of sushi with no-one-knows-how-many rolls of sushi.

After Sushi Palace, we went straight to karaoke.
Here's our friend, Jiten, singing his heart out.
This was their first time singing at karaoke at a place 5-10 minutes from their apartment, and we had so much fun.

The next day, we decided to make a spur of the moment decision and headed to New York aka Canada Day aka Birthday Part 2.

Instagram recently came out with a new feature where we can take videos... Mike wanted to try something cool. We never finished.

Oh look! Sephora! One of my favorite shopping places.

Originally, we went to Central Park to see LIGHTS free performance for Canada. Instead, we found a different party to take part in.
The music was awesome. We were so pumped, we started a congo line.

Next stop... Time Square

We were so hungry at 11, we stopped at Junior's. Delicious food there. We had a lot of funny moments there too.

When we left, we ended up right back at Time Square...
And Mike gave us a dance.

The next morning, we were all exhausted from one of the best weekends of our lives.
We all decided, it was break day.
Dan couldn't be happier that it was break day.

If you ever go to Starbucks again, you have to try the Cotton Candy Frappuccino.
Vanilla Bean Frappuccino
Tall - ONE pump of Raspberry Syrup
Grande - TWO pumps of Raspberry Syrup
Venti - THREE pumps of Raspberry Syrup

I shared the picture on Facebook, and an acquaintance decided to challenge my taste buds and blatantly tell me he wasn't going to get it because it sounded stupid and some people commented on the Starbucks page saying it tasted nothing like cotton candy.
Shaking... My... Head.
Always try the things you want to try, regardless of what people say.

It was a nice break day.
That night we watched Monsters University. Okay movie.
Then, Dan drove me home.
