If you ask any of my friends to describe me they will probably say I’m loud and crazy! haa haa I’m pretty proud to be those two because who wants to be quiet and boring?! These past 2 years have really changed my perspective on life. With my dads and my best friends death it has been really hard. Also this year, unfortunately I have also been attending a few funerals of friends from Highschool. After someone close passes away you start to think of all the “what if’s?” What if when he asked me to go six flags I would have just went? What If I didn’t spend all that time arguing over something small we could have created more memories? What if I could of just lived in the present and not held so much against my father for what he had done? It’s these type of questions that really changed the way I look at life. The truth is you never really know when it will be your time to go , and every minute of the day I try to make the most out of it. I try to volunteer as much as I can because I like knowing that I can make a difference. I try to never say no when one of my friends whats to do something and I always try to be spontaneous when it comes to plans! I feel that’s where the BEST memories are made.
This is what my Sunday was all about, my friend Amanda wanted to go thrift store shopping! We decided to hit up at least 3-4 thrift stores, these are GREAT places for me to find new and different props ! After that I got a text message from my friend Sarah asking me if I wanted to take a drive to Nutley to what she describes “the best cupcake shop ever.” The shop is called “stuffed cupcakes “, they serve everything from “Red Velvet” to “Banana Cream.”
I was a bit tired from the walking around I had done, but I asked my self “why not?” and I tagged along and we went!! There is a cupcake there that has a white chocolate covered bacon piece on it!! haa haa I wish I had taken a picture of it ! From there I went home and watched the 2nd to last episode of True Blood!! YES I’m a huge fan!!! Love me some Eric and Alcide!! Then around 10:30ish I was ready to go to bed, when my cousin texted me and asked me what I was doing and then suggested we grab coffee. Again I asked myself “Why not?” I picked her up and all of the sudden I got the crazy idea to just go to NY! My cousins face when I told her was priceless. She was expecting to go somewhere quiet to sit down and drink some coffee, and there I was letting her know we were on our way to the city that never sleeps!! We had such an amazing time!! Took us about 15 min to get there because there was no traffic, we parked about 4 blocks away from Times Square, and we walked around everywhere , NY was just as beautiful if not more then it was in the morning!
While we walked around a man approached us to see if we were interested in seeing a comedy show. I been approached by these guys many times and I always turn them down , I looked at my cousin and said . “why not?” It was only $10 and it was about 1hr and 30 min of entertainment. I had noooooo idea what to expect , but I knew no matter how bad it was or how funny it was it was a memory my cousin and I would never forget. AND WE WILL NOT!!!
We followed this man down these stairs to this basement , I know I know I should have turned around right there! We got our tickets and at this place there were several rooms that had different showing times, we had no idea were to go , so we enter this room and no lie there were about 100 people sitting there and a comedian was talking. As soon as we entered everything went silent and the comedian looked at us and said ,” you guys trying to sneak in ?” Everyone started laughing , we sat down slowly and I asked the people next to us if I had the right showing and as they shook their head I knew we needed to get out of there with out being noticed. Which we were not able to do as the comedian cracked more jokes on us. As the door closed behind us I hugged my cousin and we couldn’t stop laughing , it was the funniest thing that happened to us that night!! When we finally found the right room we sat down and experianced and 1hr and 30 min of none stop laughing. We left there with our stomachs hurting and our cheeks sore from all the laughing we had done. This image is of the first comedian , I took with my iphone so I apologize for the quality.
After the show we spent a little more time in the city and headed home . It was an experience that I will never forget and neither will my cousin, and to think I could have easily just stayed home and gone to bed !
Hope everyone had an enjoyable Labor Day too!!!!
