We were talking about funny stuff we did when we were in high school and "make me faint" came up. Haha. Here's Kristen getting ready to try to make Max faint. Step 1: Lean over and hyperventilate for 60 seconds.
Hahahahaha. This photo is comedy gold. Miye literally could not believe how big this girl's asshole was. She just kept pointing at it and laughing. She totally couldn't get her head around it (but I bet she could get "it" around her head! Ha!).
When it came time for Miye and Miriam to joing up for a TEAM UGLY FACE, I gotta say I was pretty impressed with their initial offering. But, as the saying goes, practice makes perfect...
While I was at the bar getting us one more round of drinks before heading out, I started chatting with the really cute girl on the left (yep, the one making the awesomely stupid face). While were chatting, Miye and Miriam came over and introduced themselves and we learned that the girl had just moved into town from somewhere in the Midwest and didn't know many people in town yet. We invited her to come out with us and she agreed but then the people that she was there with came over and they were these horrible, JAPpy modeling agency casting director type harpies that you'd see on one of those VH1 shows about New Yorkers that try to act like their life is JUST LIKE Sex and the City and they whisked her away from us...never to be heard from again. Until...I awkwardly ran into her on the street the very afternoon!
On Friday, Mer and I met up with David and Miye for some dinner and then afterwards headed over to the Sunshine Landmark for the midnight showing of...
Grant and David demonstrate "The Eiffel Tower of Power High Five" with Miye as the lucky girl "in the middle." Check out the sweat stains - did I mention that by this point in the August night my apartment was about 110 degrees?
Despite only getting a few hours of sleep, we managed to pick up the van and be heading beachward before noon. Here's me, Meredith, Grant, Rachel and David and Miye in the back! Rented van, wooooooo!
Friday morning I stopped by David and Miye's for coffee (David's in the background demonstrating his "I'm down wit' black people" hand gestures. That's "Soooo money!" which is an expression David told me "the blacks" are keen on saying).
On Monday I went to Bowery Bar's karaoke with David and Miye but by the time we got there, the queue was retardedly long so we just had a drink and called it a night.
Saturday night I met up with David and Miye (my favoritest married couple) in Nolita and we headed out to Hoodside, Queens to check out Sripraphai, which a Thai friend of David's had told him was the "hands down the best authentic Thai food in NYC."
David's friend ended up being right on the money. The food was totally
out of this world (and reeeediculously cheap). If you live in NYC, hop
on the 7 train and make a special trip. It's worth it. Here's
a Google link to a bunch of reviews of the place (apparently, it's highly regarded
by lots of people).
After the hunt, we went back to David & Miye's apartment sans David (who's a massage therapist and he'd gotten called away to give a massage in the middle of our hunt). Grant spent the majority of our time their trying to convince Miye...
Miye wasn't ready to brave the karaoke stage solo, so I helped ease her on in by teaming up for a duet. She spent more time sucking down her drink than she did singing.
