Why not celebrate it like your older sister celebrates almost every birthday (who cares if she's 24) Wednesday night our family decided to take my little sister for a pre-birthday celebration at our local chuck e. cheese little did we know that it was already being taken over by such a high number of kids that they could be considered a small village in africa, 780 kids were there for a fundraiser . YES 780 kids....this not including whoever else decided to stop by that night. I don't think i could ever imagine soo many kids cramped into such a small space. That wasn't even what pissed me off what really got me mad was the food...I ordered a chicken ciabatta i waited half an hour just to have them come to my table and tell me they ran out..then i waited another twenty minutes to be served something i didn't even wan to eat. It was pretty awesome (not)
I did hit up my traditional photobooth and this time i didn't have to fight any kids. what can i say i keep it classy....
Next day the celebration continued at Disneyland.
Luckily my family is like me and hates waiting in line. My first ride was the new nemo ride which was snoozeville TILL they got to the good stuff ..it was 3dish and so cute...defitnetly the longest ride in disneyland. After they decided they wanted to go to the haunted mansion, and me and shadi and i decided to get churros which made it impossible for us to get back in line , so we thought. Actually we learned a trick , say that you are looking for your friends in line and they let you go through the fastpass line . We ended up waiting infront of the haunted mansion for about 40 minutes where we had a disneyland worker who i affectionately named "shrimp" harass me and shadi about our churros then he just became creepy and decided he was going to be a dick. I think i almost slapped him and that was enough to keep him away . Hunger led us to california adventures where we ate some mexican food and were not harassed by the workers there so far california adventures has soo much over disneyland. Alcohol, Less rides that equal less people, a fake hollywood blvd, and mexican food.
We left there after to go pick up shadi's thanksgiving dinner at whole foods in tustin. Now here is the thing anytime me and shadi are out we seem to always have this NEED for frozen yogurt and i just start getting on my sidekick googling the closest pinkberry or more likely pinkberry rip off. I know that im just jumping on this bandwagon but really the taste of green tea yogurt with chocolate chips and mochi balls is enough to get anyone hooked. So far there are two locations that are suitable pinkberry replacements....
1st. Yogurtberry
This discovery came out of necessity while i waited for a show at the Wiltern to start and there was no Pinkberry in sight. A few weeks later i was waiting for another show at the Troubadour and came across another location. This place is the best because the green tea is just tart enough, an excellent pinkberry replica that doesn't even make you think of the original ..
2nd Yogurtworld
It seems that shows make me desperate for frozen yogurt because after a Kevin Devine show in San Diego i googled a frozen yogurt place , the only thing that came up was this coocky named place called yogurtworld and eventhough we were hesitate it was early and i was pretty much the most persistent person. When we got there it seemed like this cute little koreatown and it also looked like the place to be. Everyone was dressed up walking from the boba place to yogurtworld to some odd korean restaurant. There was a line that curbed all the way outside and it seemed to be some sort of self serve place ..i got my usual and it was only 2 bucks making me a complete yogurtworld believer too bad it's so far away....
Now that i went on that tangent, i googled something around the area of Tustin hoping that i would be just as good as all the other rip offs we tasted . A few minutes later i had got us directions to this place called Yogurtland , when we got there it was exactly like yogurtworld was . Self serve, weigh and pay so i thought it was going to be just as delicious as yogurtworld. NOT the yogurt wasn't even tart i felt like i was eating goldenspoon which is not a suitable pinkberry replacement. I do admit the more i ate the more i didn't hate it..but still not very good. Luckily right next door there was a hello kitty store that i forced shadi into (thank god i did) Not only was there hello kitty stuff in there but there were also Japanese photobooths.
You know those bright background , wig wearing , decorate your own picture photobooths. 28 dollars later me and shadi had wore 4 different wigs and 4 different hats and we were BEYOND happy about them.
adventures adventures...
i love run on sentences....
