I had a great weekend and it’s still not over!

Here are a few pics from my birthday party at Play on Friday night…more stories to come later!

Some very fun bloggers also came out to say hello before heading to VK’s super hot VIP party! Thanks for stopping by Kassy, Velvet, and I-66!

Me & one of my fave DJs…thanks for hookin me up! (Asian glow in effect)

Me at the end of the night…pretty wasted…

I would definitely not be surprised if I got sick after this weekend. Then again, I always get sick around my birthday, but anyway.

On Friday I headed to Papermoon in Georgetown for fashion show number two with my friends (number 5 and number 12 in the first link). I started with dinner with my fave girls K and M, and two of my guy friends from school came up too. Sadly I didn’t get many pictures because I’m retarded and forgot to charge my camera batteries.

The show was a success and a lot of fun, especially since we were VIP and had great seats. Speaking of which, an awful thing happened before the show. We were all sitting on the runway right at the end by the photographers, and before the show I went to the bathroom. So I come back and there were velvet ropes and everything - it was not even really up so it was maybe two inches off the ground. Well, I went to step over it, and of course my back foot gets caught. But no, I didn’t just trip/stumble, I fell to my knees with a crash - and I took down the entire velvet rope thing - the silver things it was hooked on…and a chair…it all came crashing down with me. Everyone was staring at me, my friends were like oh my god…I went to sit by my friend P and buried my face in his shoulder and he was like shit don’t claim me! It was quite amusing in the end, but I was mortified.

My two friends from school…they were happy I hooked them up to meet models hah

On Saturday I spent the day in Alexandria with my godniece, who just turned 5. We went clothes shopping (with her mom) and I got a copy of Breakfast at Tiffany’s. I had intended to spend the night in, since I was tired from the night before, but at the last minute I decided to go to Chloe with a friend for a party. She was pretty dead too from the show the night before, but we managed to make it out again! I heard that Chloe had gone a little downhill in the past few months, but the place seemed to be kickin’ as usual. However, there were about three bachelorette parties there, and you know when that happens a place is going down a la Coyote Ugly. But, the music and crowd was still pretty hot. I think the funniest part of the night was the hot asian girl who tried to molest me. We were dancing (you know how girls dance together) in a group, and she decided that I was awesome, and kept saying “OMG I love you, can I claim you?” and kinda trying to touch my chest. It was uh, a little disconcerting even for a drunken affair haha. But hey, it was kinda hot too. She was the most attractive person to hit on me all night hahaha. After a drink and a shot, I was sorta drunk (hey, I’m a lightweight) and I actually cut out pretty early, but ended up staying up late anyway once I got home. Oooops.

My friend M and I, round 2!

Sunday I headed to Arlington for lunch at my roommate’s house for her brother’s birthday…and then watched a bit of the Dallas game before heading home to try and catch some more sleep!

And now…my birthday week begins!

Saturday night I headed out to Love (formerly Dream) for the VIP opening of Heaven, which was basically the rooftop/4th floor that has been redone with a dome and some cool VIP sections.

My friend was DJing there so he hooked me up with free passes and such, so that was cool. He played some hot tracks and I had a great time dancing. It was definitely nice on the top floor, it was not overcrowded and since most of the people there were friends with connections, it was a good scene (read: attractive and not shady/scary). There were even girls dancing on tabletops in lingerie…can’t beat that right? Hah.

I even ran into one of my pledge sisters, who I had not seen in probably 3 years. We were really good friends the first couple years of college, but kind of lost touch later on. It was crazy to see her there!

A couple pics from back in the day

–Wow I look different! And not in a good way

Now, I haven’t been to Love in a long time, probably not since summer 2004. I used to go there a lot in college, and when I was there Saturday I felt like everyone there was really young. I guess it was just my memories coming back. It was a fun place to go, but I wouldn’t go there all the time…mostly because it’s so far out there and there is nothing around it - if you go there for the night you’re stuck there. Plus, I think most of my friends would have been freaked out about having to go through metal detectors and getting the pat down for weapons. Love is cool if you’re in the mood for a big club atmosphere (as one friend put it, it’s like an amusement park). If you haven’t been there lately, check it out…it’s all new management and promoters, so it’s a little different than before.
