Crazy Crazy Weekend

Where to begin? This weekend has been crazy and full of fun and random events...

Friday: this was the day of Nikki's 21st birthday extravaganza! So she went on a scavenger hunt and found us at different locations around the area. She found us at the bird estuary, which is way pretty. Then we drove to Ventura and ate dinner at this really nice Italian place. It was fun to celebrate Nikki's birthday!
When we were getting into our car in the parking garage, we saw a fight between a guy and a girl. So Amy called the police and reported the case while we watched from inside the car. They were fighting and pushing each other and then the guy punched the girl in the face. He then got in his car and drove away, and the girl kicked his car and then later left in another car. Luckily Caity got his license plate number and the police were able to catch the car. Three police cars then came and talked to us because we were witnesses. It was a crazy, but fun night.

Saturday: Or Elizabeth's Day of Birth!! We woke her up at midnight and gave her some of her favorite foods!!
I, then, got up really early and left for Newport to go sailing! Amy's dad's friend has a boat and house on the newport harbor, so we were able to go on this really nice boat. We were out for a few hours and then came back and went on a duffy which took us around the harbor. We then walked around South Coast Plaza and ate sushi before heading back to school.

Sunday: I decided to not go to church this morning because I hadn't done any homework all weekend, and I have a lot. And I decided to go to Starbucks instead of Coffee Bean, which is also unusual. When I got to Starbucks, there was no tables for me to sit at, except one with this old man, so I asked him if I could sit there and he said of course. I was trying to get my homework done, but he kept on asking me questions, like he wanted to talk to me, so I decided to listen to him because he would probably have a cool story to share. He ended up showing me this book with many of his accomplishments, which was a bit weird to me. But he had pictures of him with both Bush Presidents and a few other very famous people. I thought he might be a scam, or wanting me to just buy his book, but the more and more he talked, the more real he seemed. He has met many famous people and has been honored by many colleges and people in the government. He ended up being extremely nice to me, and I enjoyed talking to him. He then left and went to order a drink, but came back to give me a Starbucks mug he bought for me! It was so crazy! I called my mom so she could google him, and he has given a ton of money to the republican party and is a philanthropist. Needless to say...it was a crazy morning.

It has been a great great weekend! And although this week might be a bit more busy because of this weekend, I am okay with that!
