birthday post

here are a few pictures from my fabulous birthday. i only have a few to post but it was such a great day.

i woke up and got coffee and a cupcake with my amazing friend jake. we got me a cute red candle to go with my birthday cupcake (a peanut butter chocolate chip cupcake), and jake's cupcake (cinnamon sugar). did you know at dutch bros they give you a free drink for your birthday? ANYTHING YOU WANT. it was great!

after this i dropped jake off at his house, and came back and wrote that plethora of posts to update everyone on my life here. then, brynne and i ventured to california pizza kitchen and ate some dinner. to walk off some of our food, we walked around tempe marketplace where we ventured inside of an art gallery. we then went to the store and purchase some drinks and a shirt for that night. at about 830 we headed back over to jake's house and the festivities began. it was so much fun. my best friend from boise, jaemi, was even there. she is the one who is moving in with me next week down here. oh and to make my night even better...i got to wear my minnie mouse ears.

BEST BIRTHDAY TO DATE. thank you everyone who helped make it special.

hunt for the best sushi begins...

the other day I went to RA sushi with my new friend here name brynne. I met her through my friend here named jordan. he's a nice fellow too ! :) this is brynne:

anyways we went to the RA in old town Scottsdale. i absolutely adore old town! the shops are cute. the atmosphere is cute. even the sidewalks are cute! and RA was just so delicious. i went there march 2009 in huntington beach when jaemi and i drove down to audition for americas next top model when they had the short girl auditions. it is so delicious. they're happy hour from 3-7 is amazing.

two or three days later we got together again and went to RA but this time we went to the one in Tempe.

two days after that i went with my friend jake and we had the most delicious california rolls, spicy tuna rolls, vegas rolls, and saki.
