So on my way to Andrew’s I actually bumped into him on campus, thereby ruining his cheesecake surprise.. Sorry ’bout that! But the cake sure was good, and at the end of the (b-)day, isn’t that what REALLY matters?…

So we had this delicious cake, and I met a new friend, Hector. He is from the Dominican Republic, but born in NEW YORK CITY!!! How cool is that! I am so jealous.

After the cake we went to Westport, which I realize is a much better place to hangout than Downtown. There they have all these bars, restaurants and small shops, and it looked really nice. They even have a Bubble Tea shop (JENNY!!)! Remember the funky hipster drink we had in NYC? Yup, they sell it right here in Westport, KC! Imma get me some, and bring the NYC-cool back to KC. Yo.

So in Westport I had the first alcohol after my arrival in the Midwest! People here either aren’t allowed to drink yet, don’t like it or just don’t do it, so I have to grab my chances.. I started off with a cherry chocolate birthdaybeer (knis), and then had some regular. It was GOOD (not the cherry chocolate part so much, just the BEER).

Since I hadn’t eaten enough yet, we went for some Chinese food. Alvin really knows the good places, and I have a feeling that his talking Chinese to the waiter before we order might even ensure some EXTRA good food- because we have only had superb Chinese food so far.

When I got home I somehow had to make room for some more cake, since I only have 54 minutes of birthday left, yet still 1/2 chocolate cake in the fridge. Tomorrow no chocolate cake for breakfast, lunch or dinner, so I guess I have to do some more heavy lifting out of the fridge today. A woman has to do what a woman has to do.
