I turned 25 over the weekend. It was a good weekend, mainly cuz I felt relaxed on my day. Saturday morning we packed up, and just as we're about to leave, my babe hands me a package from Amazon. He got me the movie UP! Aww, looking forward to watching it again! Then we headed out. We made a pitstop in the OC then drove to SD. It turned out to be a good thing since it made the overall drive feel short. We got to La Jolla and walked around the village. Surprisingly, we went to a store that sold Olukai sandals. I've been wanting a pair but never got around to actually finding out where they were sold. There was one pair I liked. Fortunately, out of the three different sizes they had left, one of them fitted me! Emmanuell ended up preventing me from reaching for my wallet and paid for the sandals himself. I finally have a pair of sandals that fits and is comfy!
Afterwards, we drove to downtown SD for dinner. We made reservations for The Oceanaire Room at 5:30pm. Early, I know... but I wanted to make sure we had room for dessert! Anyhoo, the food was DELICIOUS! Everything was well prepared, and we loved every single bite of our dishes. Hopefully we'll get to go back there again! We then met up w/ Mike, Emmanuell's best friend since they were 6 yrs old. As we drove to Mike's place, we passed by the civic center where my lil brother was performing. Too bad I couldn't see him.
After the three of us rested a bit and watched some of the NBA playoff game, we took our walk to Extraordinary Desserts... yay!!!!!!! It took a while to get seated since it's always packed, but we were looking at all the delicious desserts to decide what we wanted by the time we got seated. This location actually had my fave - Tortamisu. Since Emmanuell promised me a while ago that he would get that for me on my bday, I had no choice but to pick that one. It's actually been at least a year since I last had a Tortamisu. (Hehe, searching for that particular dessert and driving all the way to deliver it to me was how my babe got some brownie points!) Anyway, that place is always good. Can't complain. We walked back to hang out before going to bed. I talked to my lil bro for a bit and went to sleep after he wished me a happy bday.
Then came Sunday morning. I woke up before 6:30am, woke up Emmanuell to tell him I was hungry, lol. I managed to fall back asleep for 30 mins before actually getting up. We waited til Mike woke up then headed to breakfast. Afterwards, we made a stop at the Fashion Valley mall to go to the Apple store. We ended up heading out at about noon to come back to LA. We got home and lounged til dinner w/ my old school friends (well, mostly old school). Dinner was good. Very thoughtful gifts. Haha, they know what I like! Half the gang went bowling after dinner, planned out by John (since we have bowling shoes we bought back in college). It was a good wknd, a fun and relaxing way to celebrate my 25th bday. (I'd post a pic here but haven't uploaded anything, and also waiting to get a dinner one from one of my friends.) =)
