Because we slept at 5:00AM, we finally get out of bed by 1:30. I eat some leftovers that my mom left in the fridge and she has strawberries and steam bread. Speaking about my mom, she brought home the stuff I guess when she was home. She has been out of the house and sleeping at her friend’s place for the weekend, which is really good so Katie and I don’t really have to run into her. Bowen’s been in his room/out, so that’s also another plus.
We decide to spend the day in Flushing. We drive in and go to a spicy wonton place. Then we head over Flushing Mall and look at a few shops. We then go to the shoe store where I get a pair of grayish, flat bottom kicks. Then back down to Main Street for $1 Peking duck wraps. Then to bubble tea. Then to fried pork buns and finally we drive home and it’s 9:00ish. We hang around until she has to the 12:52 train back to Penn and then the C to 115th, Uptown.

Katie comes in by 5:00 and we hang around. We see that in town that there’s a festival thing going on. My mom and Bowen go into town for dinner with Katie. She’s met them before, but this is the first time we have all have dinner. It’s a really shitty Italian place on Middle Neck. The service sucks and the food is mediocre. Also, I get a headache because the DJ is playing really loud annoying music. We’re inside the restaurant and still have to shout. Katie and I end up staying in for the night.

Katie and I decide to go to Queens Mall instead of the city. It’s an awesome mall and way cooler than Roosevelt. It’s bigger, has more stores, though the food court is pretty poor. I end up going to PacSun and getting two pairs of jeans. My jeans are too loose and these new jeans rock. A light pair and a darker pair. $60. Done deal.
We then find a store called “Xios.” I’ve never heard of it, but it has some really awesome cheap stuff. I get pair of red shorts and blue shorts, better than my khaki’s which are too baggy. $20 for both. Katie also picks out some button up V-necks made of a cool cotton. Purple and beige. $15 for both. $35 for all four.
We go to H Mart and getting the ingredients for Asian style pork ribs. Then to the liquor store for a handle of whiskey. We cook at my place and Bowen is getting ready for his party tomorrow since mom’ll be gone. He makes jungle juice. I find out that mom isn’t coming back tonight so I start inviting people over. I drink mad Coke and whiskey. Jon, Jonah, Evan, Josh, CNF, Kerri, Candace, her friend, Bowen and his friends, Spamps, Scott, Alon, Kenny. Bolanos is upstate moving into his new house.
I get quite drunk and this is like the first time that people are over at my place. Boy, that’s a lot of people hanging out. Alon drives Katie and I to White Castle. Katie’s never had it and I love having drunk White Castle. Good times.

I wake up hung over and Katie and I go to the diner for brunch, at 12-1:00ish. I order a pizza burger and she gets corn beef hash. I’m hung over and being lazy, while she’s all giggity and wants to go into the city for stuff. We end up going in 4-5:00ish. We get to her place and watch some TV. We order Chinese food from this great place that’s so cheap and gives huge portions. When she picks it up from the guy, she’s like, “Did we really order that much?” Huge fuckin’ dumplings with a great sauce. Sweet and sour chicken. Kung Pao beef and a Coke. $18 and leftovers enough for days. Done deal.
We pregame at her place and leave for Candace’s birthday by 11:00. I have a gift card from Sephora for her. Katie and I hang with the dudes while we watch people singing karaoke at Stout. I go through a beer and help Katie with her really strong tequila sunrise. I also sneak the bathroom for a few swigs for whiskey from her flask.
We take the 1:19 back to GN. Josh and Scott go to my place because Bowen’s party was there. It’s weird because Bowen is in his underwear outside. People left and only a few of his friends are left. I take a jello shot and see that there’s JD in the fridge. I drink some of that straight and then make a mix drink. After a bit of that, I get super drunk, too drunk. I’m sick and end up spitting a lot in the trash. Katie tries to take care of me and does it fine job. I end up vomiting a little bit and passing out. I guess drinking hit me late and the drinking afterwards doesn’t help. I’m also really tired. It’s not too bad and I end up sleeping like a baby.

We wake up at 1:00ish and go get brunch with my mom at the diner. I get an open faced grilled chicken sandwich on pita with yogurt sauce and Greek salad. We drop by the pet store because my mom wants goldfish, we don’t get any. We then go and see a few houses because my mom likes it and her friend is trying to find a house around GN anyway. Then we see the water at Stepping Stone and look at some clothes on Middle Neck Road.
Katie randomly finds out that her friend, Anders from the site we met on, who’s visiting NYC from LA is staying with her sister in Great Neck. That’s so random. We make plans to meet in town at Starbucks. After sitting around, Anders drives us to Flushing for Korean BBQ. We meet up with his friend that he hasn’t seen for ten years and her boyfriend. It’s a long dinner that goes for almost two hours. We get beef and pork BBQ and a billion sides. There’s also the rice cake spicy dish that Katie made before for dinner at the house. After that, Anders drives us back to GN and we go to back the house. It’s a great dinner and really cool to meet Anders. He’s staying in New York for a little bit and wants to go to a bunch of places to eat. Maybe Katie and I’ll come along sometime. Loves the food.
She hangs around and writes an article for her job before I drop her off at the LIRR at 1:00. Darn work tomorrow and an awesome weekend ever ending.
