So Aaron and Bolanos are back from Binghamton for their break. Hasan and them decide to come into the city. This is before 11:00. We go to the liquor store to grab some booze and I sign them up to the dorm. We hang and drink for a while until I sign CNF into the building. After a while, Josh calls because he’s downstairs, but I can’t sign anymore people in.

We all go down to figure stuff out. Hasan suggests going to Astoria, which doesn’t make much sense because hanging out at my place is the same. We’re just looking for somewhere to stay.

Josh isn’t planning to stay for the night because he has other plans, so he and CNF decide to do that and get food. Hasan wants to get food in the East Village, but doesn’t know how to get there. I try to lead him the right way, but he somehow gets onto a highway and it takes a lot longer than it should because it’s only a 25 minute walk there.

I try to voice my opinion against going because it’s just Halal cart food, which you can get blocks away from me instead of driving all the way there. So after a roundabout drive, we then have to find parking. After parking at a No Standing and Hasan could’ve stayed in the car, he goes ahead to risk getting a ticket.

Aaron went to find somewhere for a bathroom. He gets his food, which for some reason takes a ridiculously long time. It ends up costing them double of what it would at a cart and it’s all the same. Aaron’s platter is $12, he could’ve gotten it for $5.

So after blowing all that time on an “Erdem trip,” we come back to my dorm for some more hanging out and drinking. They end up leaving at around 2:30ish or something.
