Before we get into my birthday highlights, I did want to mention that I had baked a cake for my friend Karen who has the same birthday as I do. We tend to celebrate together every year since we also have lots of mutual friends. Now, while I was baking this cake, my mixer completely died out on me which meant I could not finish my batch of buttercream icing. I finished the cake batter (thank goodness) and the royal icing. I did manage to finish decorating the cake all with the help of my family. When my friends upload a picture of it, I’ll post it here too. It’s not that great though, sigh, it’s a good shot for a first try but I will try and make it better the next time around 
Yup, it was not a great start at all.
- Top layer of my cake broke
Either the roses were too heavy or my icing sucked (I think if I had MY icing, not store-bought icing, it might’ve been okay sigh) - I showed Karen my broken cake so at least she’d know how it was supposed to look like lol
- Ahjumma at the Korean restaurant rescued my cake and fixed it with toothpicks!
- Someone came to my birthday who I wasn’t expecting >_>
- Apparently the wrong J came lol, oh, it’s never my birthday when the right people are coming, there’s always a mishap with the invitations lol, this is what I get for having friends who have similar/same names LOL
- Korean food was fricking amazing, love that restaurant <3 I was so full at the end, it was pure joy lol
- Kimchi took so long to come, and at the very end when everyone was done eating, there were like 4 kimchi side dishes that came
- Other table kept taking our food, ie. our kimchi which sucked because they didn’t even really eat it
- I took 4 shots of soju, it should’ve been 3 but I took one before we “cheers”-ed and then after that they just kept feeding me
- So I met Chris, Karen’s boyfriend, finally and the first time he meets me I’m drunk ahaha, that’s awesome
- Ahjumma likes my cake and was surprised I baked it myself lol
- We gave ahjumma a quarter of both cakes and she came back for one more slice and we ended up giving her both the cakes (there was half a cake left for each one)
- Ahjumma’s excuse: “I love cake” haha she’s adorable
- I said “kamsamida” to the ahjumma and she looked surprised lol
- “cul-de-sac” and “moist” and “wet” TOTALLY sound naughty
- My voice is still harsh from karaoke
- And I’m pretty sure I was stupid for most of the night, lol totally embarrassed, I hate drinking sometimes
- And I love you, my friends, for somehow saying it’s okay that I’m stupid LOL
- And if you were wondering, I was drunk, that 4th shot pushed me over the edge
