Wow! It's been a while since I last posted in this blog. So, yesterday was my birthday-I turned twenty-one (yay for the ability to purchase alcohol...not so much yay for mojitos. ^^; ) And of course, it involved trying some new things.
Kiki, Kathi, Roxanne, Brandon, Deion, my younger sister Elena and I all went to the Japanese Steakhouse called Eka. Normally people would do the hibachi grill, but we all did the sushi bar instead. We got the Eka rolls (eel...yum... ^^) and shrimp tempura (deep fried shrimp sushi), and the other group got some California rolls, too (we had split the group to mainly share off each other; Kiki, Brandon, Elena were on my group), but I think we accidentally ended up purchasing some spider rolls. ^^; While those sounded delicious, it seemed that they had added a new ingredient to the mix. I totally wish I had taken a picture.
They were like tiny orange beads that didn't seem to have much flavor, but more so served as decoration. We spent about twenty minutes debating on what it was, because we thought that they were fish eggs like what had been mentioned as the 'new ingredient.' Elena was freaking out about it because of simply what it was and that she had already eaten it. Finally we noticed the chef laughing at us and someone gained the nerve to ask him. XD He held up a huge carton of them and said, "Oh, these? They're fish eggs."
...And then Elena went to the bathroom to try and throw up, but couldn't get up the nerve. ^^; We all did get a pretty good laugh out of it though. XD
When we got home, after singing cake and gift-opening, we did some cosplay shots and overall general photography. We're hoping to maybe get some more done today, so...wish us luck! Hopefully we'll soon have more pictures to put up on this blog. ^^
