Oh, another year!

Yup, Im 24 now.

Depressing i know. So there is no better way to celebrate my birthday than going to Vegas!
We left L.A. on Friday May 28th, early in the morning. and i mean.. i walked out of work and went straight to vegas. It was horrible. I was dead tired! I couldnt sleep on the car ride (mostly because my friend is a crazy driver and i was all over the back seat). Thanks to benadryl i finally passed out for a few hours.

As soon as we arrived we headed straight to our amazing room. We stayed at the "TRUMP." and gorgeous it was!!! 2 bedroom suit, 3 bathrooms, 2 kitchens. It was a dream! The moment we got there we headed to "tao beach." BUT not before a lil drama occured. As we were heading to tao i noticed that my ID was missing.. AAAHHH!!!!! And everyone knows that "NO ID, MIGHT AS WELL GO HOME!" I freaked out. My entire weekend was over at that moment. I was ready to book a flight and go home. Jen & I went mad crazy in the hotel looking for it. On our way downstairs we found 2 maids working. We asked them if they had found an ID - they denied. We continued... after about 30 min of non stop search we gave up and were headed back to the room then we see my guardian angel! One of the maids was holding up my ID when we walked out of the elevator. I WENT CRAZY! a huge relief.

We headed to tao beach, where our friends were already at. We had sushi for dinner. and went to XS club that night. Well Kerriann and Chantelle werent feeling so well at XS so we left early and were in bed by 1am. BUT being a nurse and all i had to take care of my girls. I had an IV kit with me just incase anyone got sick from drinking so much. Kerri was the lucky gal that got IV'ed and got fluids. RN to the rescue!

Day 2

We went to the Wynn to lay out at the pool. We met the guys there. Did i forget to mention that my ex was in vegas too. Well he was. Akward? Yeah, just a tad. But we handled being around each other very well. Kwasi (my ex) was there with a bunch of lawyer (so i made lots of lovely look ups for mal-practice... just in case i need it). It was one of the guys birthday on May 30th too so we were having a duo-bdays celebration.


That night we got all dressed up and tried to go to a club. Well it was literally IMPOSSIBLE!!! It was crowded! and it was absolutely a complete headache. We tried to get into a club.. until we saw that it was $20 for girls, and $200 for guys. WHAT?! What guy would pay 200 to get in a club?! So we hung around in the guys room.


Sunday, BIRTHDAY MORNING!
I woke up to the most amazing birthday morning... A video of my niece and nephew singing me happy birthday. It just drew me to tears. All the girls were in the room with me when i opened it and they all started singing to me. I could not stop crying. At that moment i was ready to ditch vegas and go see my family. It was really hard not being with my loved ones on my birthday, but chantelle and jen tried to make me happy. They went out and bought me the sweetest presents to remember the trip. I love it.

We headed to Tao beach once again...

We met a guy that was completely in love with chantelle. Anything she wanted she got. It was crazy how much he spent on us. When i got a glimpse of the bill at tao.. $500 buckos. OUCH! Now, the scary thing was that he lives 5 min away from me. We had mexican food for dinner and got ready for a night out at tao club. The club was AMAZING. So much fun! I even met my future vegas husband... sorry sister your future brother in law is a bouncer at tao. Greg (thats his name) hit it off and exchanged numbers :) The girls and i all left tao and hit the strip and just walked around.. a fantastic night!


Monday was another story. The drive to vegas is normally 4hrs. SInce it was a holiday weekend it took us 9hrs.. HORRIBLE TRAFFIC!!!!! Never again.
