So it’s official after all the weekend festivities I am official twenty-one! Here is a re-cap of my wonderful weekend, a three day celebration.

Friday

began with a small scavenger hunt I made up for a few lucky friends. There were 21 items worth different amounts of points and the team that completed the most items and collected the highest amount of points won! Tasks varied from finding an out-of province license plate to getting a piggy back from a stranger.

After a hour around town searching for objects and embarrassing themselves we met for some tapas and drinks at Ebisu on Robson. A Japanese Restaurant Lounge featuring some of the best deals for drinks in town. My favorite part of meal was when the waitress brought out my my cupcake tier and they played “Happy Birthday” through the restaurant’s sound system. Some good eats and 3 pitchers of sangria later we were ready to move the party.

I decided to finish the night off with a Bubble Party at Gossip Nightclub. I must say I do love Fridays @ Gossip Night Club hosted by Independent Entertainment. Why wait until Saturday? TGIF!

My friends and I joined 1000+ of Vancouver’s hottest party people and danced the night away. Also Celebrating their birthdays that day with me was JKol & Andy. Happy birthday boys!

On Saturday,

I woke up with blisters on my feet. Note to self: do not wear new shoes dancing! I decided I wanted to spend my actual birthday lounging on the beach. After an afternoon of soaking up the sun a special someone cooked me a delicious dinner. To top the night off I got my curry fish-balls and purchased a hello kitty beach towel from the Richmond Night Market.

Sunday

was no disappointment. Completed the grouse grind in a hour and fifteen minutes (considering my sore quadriceps and blistered feet I was impressed with my time). Later that evening I had my family and closest friends come over for a hello kitty themed party, “Ctina’s Kitty Kaboodle!”

I invited everyone to dress in Hello Kitty attire and unleash their inner child. Refusing to act my age I spent the day surrounded by lots of balloons and hello kitty party goodies. There was even HK Trivia! The icing on the cake had to be the cake! Special thanks to Elisa who made me a special hello kitty strawberry cheesequake ice cream cake!

I had a wonderful weekend and wanted to thank everyone for the birthday wishes and participating in all my silly activities.

At the most recent Lavish meeting I suggested hosting a twitter contest to help promote our next event, Doll Domination. I looked around the room and noticed a bunch of confused blank faces. Jana & I couldn’t believe that we were the only ones on twitter! So like I promised I’m going to offer a quick twitter 101 to get the ladies hooked on twitter.

What is twitter?

“Twitter is a service for friends, family, and co–workers to communicate and stay connected through the exchange of quick, frequent answers to one simple question: What are you doing?”

Watch this video made by the common craft show and it’ll explain to you what exactly twitter is in plain English.

What better way to cool off on a hot Saturday afternoon than a water fight! On Saturday, July 11th 2009 at Lumberman’s Arch in Stanley Park hundreds of people of all ages came out to participate in the 3rd annual Vancouver’s Largest Waterfight. This water splashing event was organized on Facebook and quickly became one of the most popular flash-mobs in Vancouver. Although I did arrive at the battle field over two hours late, there were still tons of people with water guns out to play. Just moments after I stepped onto the playing field a bucket of ice cold water was poured over my head by a random stranger. Sadly I didn’t get many pictures because I quickly put my camera in a Ziploc bag and seek revenge! Join the facebook group for photos and info on next year’s event. I’ll be sure to come on time
