Down Town excursion and Sushi

Wednesday June 28th.

Brace yourselves, this is a long one. Ha ha ha ha!

That day was such a memorable and fun day ever! I'm never going to forget it! Where to begin? Well, first things first, this was suppose to be a day to hang out with Steph Lim before I left for Vietnam, and it was a helluva day.

I had to do some early morning, last minute shopping before meeting up with Steph, and I got the coolest sling bag btw. Anyway, I had to meet Steph back at Sundrige, and there I also met up with Summeet, and they showed me their work place of the future for them... STARBUCKS. ha ha ha ha, well good luck to them on getting the job, I'm sure they will. It's newly opened and whatnot. After that, Summeet had to leave us and Steph and I headed for downtown.

Now I didn't know this 'bout Steph till that day, but she knows the +15s like the back of her hand it was amazing. It was blazing hot that day, but we were able to stay in an air conditioned area for 99% of the time. Plus we saw so many cool things there! Like TD Square, I haven't been in ages!! And Senterra! Holy crap that place is AWESOME! Need to go back soon!!

Anyway, we finally met up with some of Steph's friends at Sakana Grill for sushi. I already knew Susan and Leanna, but I met Connie and Sarah for the first time. Connie totally reminds me of Michelle Lu from my art class in her ditzy way, but I mean that in a good way. She's great and funny! ha ha ha ha. So sushi was sushi, filling as always. Difference was, I tried the raw scallop. It wasn't that great. It was ok at first, but I kept chewing and chewing, and everyone else was like, "feels like slugs going down your throat eh?" stuff like that. The texture became so creamy and gross, but I swallowed it. I don't think I'll have raw scallop in a while.

After that, we all headed down to Eau Clair, for ARCADE! Oh the awesome, dingy, arcade. Where we spent all our tokens watching Connie, Sarah, and Stephanie play House of Dead 4. It was so INTENSE! It was my job to put in the coins before they totally died, and we got pretty far too. It was a team effort! Ha ha ha! We got to the second boss. It was funny how once we ran out of tokens, we were all screaming for more change and to get tokens fast. In the end, everyone ran out of change. But it was fun to watch. Wish I had some pics, but Steph has some.

After that, we went out into the blistering hot weather and went to the waddling pool where all the kiddies were and took some pics. Only, Steph, Sarah, and I went into the water, the others were chicken :P







Ok, so after that, we thought we go back around the +15s and head over to Devonian Gardens to relax and take some pics. Steph took some really nice ones i wish I could share, but I don't have them.


Steph took this pic. I just think it's so cool. We were in the open roof area, and she just took a pic looking up and out at the building.


Here's the open area where the pic above was taken.

I have more, mostly of foliage and us at the playground in the gardens, but steph had most of the nice ones. When I get them from her I'll post them up. Plus i don't want to put anymore up cuz it's taking forever to do.

Anyway, after Devonian Gardens, we had to go our seperate ways. Sarah, Connie, and Susan went to Chinook to shop. Leanna left earlier for training, and Steph and I headed back to Sundrige to help look for my debit card that I lost when I went to shop with Jo, which I fogot to mention. Plus Steph had to meet up with another friend. All in all, it was a really good day, had a lot of fun and made new friends which is always good.
