Fancy outfits, a beautiful view & best friends.

I celebrated my 19th birthday last Friday and I had the most amazing day ever. Two of my best friends, Karena and Natalie & I went downtown to have some fun. First, we ate dinner at ‘Departure’. It’s this really cool restaurant on the top of a 16 floor-building. For appetizers we got edamame & chicken skewers. The chicken skewers were to die for. Natalie freaked out when she took her first bite. It was thatttt good. Then for our meal we ordered a few sushi rolls. I ate unagi; which for those who don't know is eel. Guess what? I loved it ;) After we finished eating, the waiter brought out a fancy desert with a candle on it. I wished my wish & then contemplated about taking a bite. It was a dark blue cake, with an egg shaped 'normal' scoop of vanilla bean ice cream, topped with... raisins? Yes. Raisins. But being the rebel I am (I'm not a rebel at all) I took a bite and shockingly enjoyed it! I asked the water boy (who thought it was a good idea to refill our water every 5 minutes) what kind of cake it was. And he checked for us and then told us it was 'Bundt' cake. However, I swore that he said 'Butt' cake so that is what I'm calling it :) This was such a fancy-smanshy place, with a lot of entrees we couldn't pronounce so we saved a lot of room in our tummies for our next destination--- VOO DOO! Some of you may be familiar with Voo-Doo Donuts. If you aren’t then you need to check out their website: http://voodoodoughnut.com/
They have a Bacon Maple Bar with strips of BACON. Yes, that’s what I said. Real strips of bacon. It’s surprisingly tasty. If you ever make a trip to Portland, you best be ordering this deliciousness.
After we ordered our 18 dollars worth of donuts, we decided to bring them back to our hotel, which had really cool bonfires outside. So we brought our donuts out and started eating. Then, we heard a little voice say, ‘Scuse me, you aren’t allowed to eat out here..’ so we headed up to our room. Once we got to our room, we blasted ‘Vultures’ by John Mayer and rocked out on our beds. I may have been turning nineteen, but we are 5 years old at heart.
I wanted to share my birthday with you, so here are a few photos from the night. Love you guys! And thanks again for all the wishes, and for making my day very special.





Last Friday Night.. I'd do it all over again :)
