FLASHBACKS PART 1
okay there were like 6 diary-days i had wanted to write about, but didnt have time to (but i noted it down on my planner). so now imma write a bit about what happened each day.
April 6, 2012: ACE Fashion Show
Mickey works at brooks brothers, so she got vip tickets to see a student-club fashion show at NYU. it was pretty awesome. we got to sit right up front where the walkway is and we had our special goody bags. its one of the “biggest” fashion shows at NYU, and i have to admit, it was pretty fun! the models actually looked like..models. i was wondering if they had gone on a super strict diet just for this, cus they were like stick skinny! and at the fashion show, there were a lot of other clothing brands and sponsors. during the whole thing, they had a couple raffles, and i won an xbox! haha :D it was like the grand prize, and i was so surprised i won. every time a person won something, they wud jump up and down, and after they called my number i was just like “…me…!” in the quietest voice possible. then there was some delay because the models werent ready. there was awkward silence and someone in the back yells “WHO WON THE XBOX?!?!” hahhaa
April 10, 2012: Gotham Comedy Club
so again, since Mickey works at brooks brothers, she got free tickets to see a comedy club from one of her clients. LOL. and the show starts late- 10pm, so we decided to sleepover at one of my friend’s place. her apartment is like 2 STEPS away from the club. i was so blown away! even though we got free tickets, there’s a bit of a catch..everyone who goes to the club has to drink a MINIMUM of 2 DRINKS PER PERSON!!!! i was like what?!?!?! and every drink was so expensive! we just ordered soda and water and the waitress was like “i’ll just allow this. for you guys!” cus apparently it had to be alcohol or something. but it was like $5/drink. so expensive! the show itself was okay. like 10 comedians or so came on. some were funny, some weren’t. and i felt so bad for the people sitting up front, because the comedians always picked on them. there were these 2 guys sitting right up front at their own table, and like…it was kinda obvious they were gay. and one of the comedians was using them constantly as a joke. and at the end, the guy goes “i’m not gay” but then i was talking to my friends afterwards, and they said the guy prolly lied just to show the comedian don’t judge. but it was sooooo awkward and embarrassing. i felt so so bad for them!
the sleepover was fun! the next day we made guacamole and ate chips and watched smash, haha.
April 19, 2012: Waffle & Dinges & TASS
that day, there were like 5 food trucks parked outside NYU. if you had an iphone, or ipad or any smart device, you cud download this application…i forgot what it was called. fondue? or something, get a code, show the guy, and get free food! we got the invite on facebook awhile, and i was gonna bring my ipad so mickey cud get free food, but we totally forgot. anyways, i ended up getting waffle and dinges, nat got some chinese food? and ej got waffles too. but then..i had this brilliant idea! i deleted the app on my phone, installed it again, created a new username, and got a new code!!! WAHHAHAHAH :D so then mickey got free food too!!! haha.
then later on that night, there was a TASS thing, which is like a taiwanese night market. i’ve always heard about it, but never went for some reason…but i really wanted to go at least once! at first it was a bit awkward cus it was just me and mickey and there were sooo many people and we didnt know what to do with ourselves. but then later on a couple friends joined us and it got funner! there was a ton of food, and like carnival-like games. we didnt want to play in the beginning, but later on we got into it because turns out if you win the game, you get a raffle ticket. the grand prize was an ipad! so after we found that out, mickey and i went to play like every game haha. for participating in the game, you get a raffle ticket too, but those tickets are used to trade in for prizes. only if you win do you get the real real raffle ticket.
we didnt win anything from the raffle. but we got a couple prizes from the trade-in. this guy who i’ve been mini crushing/long story won, but i think he cheated -___- cus he was the last person to put his tickets in, and he had like a whole roll!!!!!! and its impossible because you only get a ticket when you win a game. and theres only like…10 games to play. so yes. he cheated.
the one thing i was really surprised about was when I won was the beer pong game LOL i have horrible aim, and mickey kept missing and i kept missing. and then the girl in charge said to continue playing until someone gets it in. (we were playing together). so then i say “thats gonna be impossible. we’re gonna be here for a looong time” and right after i said that, i got it in hahahaha :P
