A conglomeration of events and tidbits - Part Uno

Conglomeration. I love that word. I love the way it rolls my tongue. I don't know why, and I don't care. I just love it.

Anyhoo, I have a bunch of pictures to post, and stories to post. Don't know if they'll be any interesting, but eh, I'm going to post it all anyway! I have so many pictures and little things in between, that I think I'm going to split this post into TWO (or THREE??!?!?!?!). Moahahaha, won't that be interesting? :D

Right. Let me get on with it.

First off, I went to Alice's Tea Cup (Chapter II) with Jeana in May, when she was visiting New York. I know, this portion of my post is super old, but I really wanted to mention it because it was such a cute place to go with a girlfriend or to take kids.


The wait was a little long, but there were plenty of stores around the area, so the wait wasn't that bad. Alice's Tea Cup was full of little kids, families, and women. As the boyfriend would say, "it's a chick place." Be that as it may, I still think it'd be a nice place for a date. Any guy who would swallow his pride and bring his girlfriend here is a keeper ;)

Jeana ordered the french toast and I decided to try their eggs benedict. It was actually my first time eating eggs benedict, so I have no idea if it's supposed to taste like that, or if there's better out there, but I thought it was all right. The buttermilk scone underneath it was scrumptious. But I don't think I'd order it again. The chicken hash on the side was really good though. I can't say much about Jeana's french toast because I only tried a little and I barely remember what it tasted like. It does look pretty though, don't it? :)

Oh, and the tea. Hahaha. I totally forgot to mention the tea. We shared a large pot of their birthday tea. I can't remember what flavor it was, but it was definitely something fruity. The tea was very fragrant, and I really liked it. Our waiter forgot to charge us for it (I think?), so our meal was cheaper than it probably should have been. We debated whether or not we should tell him, but because we're both poor college students (or in Jeana's case, poor college graduate), we didn't tell him.

Does that make us bad people? We left a decent tip for him though. Does that kind of make up for the fact that we didn't get charged for the tea? :p

I hope so! ;D

Onto the next set of pictures... (I'm too lazy to post up individual ones ... too lazy to edit them one by one, hahaha. And they're not very well edited, sorrrrrrrrry! I am a bum.)



When the boyfriend got back from school, we spent one of our days together at Coney Island. Actually, we spent about half an hour looking for parking and then an hour actually at Coney Island. The earlier part of the day was spent at the park; I read my book while he played bball. Hahaha. Anyhoo. We got corn dogs (<3!) and fries from Nathan's. Um, it was really good. Like, really. I mean it. I think Nathan's has the best crinkle cut fries. Ever. It was crisp and potato-y and yum. And corn dogs, man, I just love corn dogs. I needn't to say much about them. They are the bomb diggity.

Other than the food and the eating, me and Dan walked around for a bit, taking in the freak shows, kiddy rides and eccentric people that Coney Island is all about. There was one booth that claimed to have a gi-normous rat (weighing 100 lbs, I think?) on display. It was only like, 50 cents to go and take a gander, but I was too chicken to go look. I bet it was just a guy dressed up like a rat in the cage ... that would have been sad. I don't know?! I didn't want to go because I don't like rats ... especially not 100 lb ones.

WELL, I think this is all the writing I can muster up for now. I suppose I could write more, but my mom keeps badgering me to look up information about getting a teacher's license or something like that. Eh, whatever. I guess I will humor her for now, and look up something on google. Or maybe, BING?

What's that all about anyway? Is it really better than google?

Anyway. More posts next time :D

Hey!! Apartment doings ALL done! Well, sorta haha. It looks like lunch might be a bit inconvenient for me since I can't be too far away from the premise. And I don't want to make you walk all the way from bowling green/whitehall to WFC. How about dinner instead? I'm pretty much free Tuesday and Thursday of this week. Let me know!
