Day of the lost mojo
To quote one of my best friends on my 4th of July, "Your mojo was ruined." The day saved itself by the end, free of immature and selfish people.
Now here's a serious problem I have with people. If you make plans, you stick by your plans. You don't bail and ditch people for no good reason. Poor excuses include but are not limited to: "I'm tired" (because let's face it, WE'RE ALWAYS TIRED. WE'RE GOING TO BE TIRED FOR MANY DAYS TO COME. Unless you just pulled four all-nighters in a row--and trust me, I know how that feels--and just competed in the Tour de France, that excuse ain't gonna fly); "It's raining" (yeah, it's called the fuckin' weather. Get used to it. It's going to rain many more times to come); "I forgot" (I particularly hate this one, because I expect people to remember their plans, and you know what? REMEMBER ME. That's right, I'm a selfish bitch, but hey, I don't forget you, so don't forget me. What's even worse is people who forget, then remember, and then decide to not notify you of the broken plans. WTF). Ranting aside, and people who do nothing but complain without contributing ignored, it was fun.
We started at Dim Sum, which in Chinese is called yum cha and translates to "drink tea," because well... you drink tea. I have no idea where Dim Sum came from, white people come up with the craziest things (one of which being "Boba" instead of "Bubble tea," I don't think so). We asked for some ice water and this is what we got:

And at the table next to us? Like my stalker picture?

YEAH, WTF RIGHT? HAHAHAHAHAHAHA.
Anyways, we ended up the movies where a friend works and movie hopped from The Hangover to Ice Age 3. Hangover was funny, but lost some of its charm when we repeated some scenes (we left and then went back into another showing). It's a good and fun one-time movie. Ice Age was "meh." Lol, our Theatre Friend helped up hop movies, pulling out a chart with all the complete showtimes.

Applebee's bar. That, is a mudslide. Right after I drank it, my throat started killing me, and it's been like that since. o.O Worth it? Perhaps. I doubt the drink was the real cause.

Went to Battery Park to view the Macy's fireworks (also saw Jersey's inferior fireworks... or was it Staten Island? We couldn't figure it out, for shame). The picture was our view, taken about half an hour apart. Pieced it together for a full view =) One of the buildings had red, blue, and white lights.
Our fireworks: I had to lean over the railing and for these.
