Weekend of Firsts

I'm still trying to figure out this blog thing (I'm a virgin), so bear with me while I royally screw up.

I had something specific I wanted to write about, but now I've forgotten what it was. Maybe it'll come to me....

...Oh yeah, now I remember. I was going to talk about my most awesome weekend with some really chill people. I'm so excited about this that I just can't share it enough! Really, though, it was awesome. You should have been there. It rocked the house.

Here's how it all went down:

My friend Brytni was all, "Hey, Kiara. Check out this band that'll be in Houston."
I was all, "Hells yeah!"
Long story short, she and I hopped in the van with the band, played us some N64 (oldschool) MarioKart, and drove our happy asses to H-Town(?).

These guys were all really cool. I had an awesome time. This was The Weekend Of Firsts:

My first beer pong tournament--I've played beer pong several times (it's usually the only time I drink), but I've never played in a tournament before. My teammate and I did pretty well, considering how messed up I was. I play better when I'm drunk, so our strategy was to get me drunk before we started playing, then let me drink all the cups while we play. It worked pretty well, I'd say. Except that I got super wasted and was cut off for the first time in my life (another first!).

My first live show--This one puts a little shame in my heart. My brother and my mom's boyfriend both have bands of their own (that they've been in for a few years), and I've never been to their shows. But Flawless Escape definitely got me excited, and it was a great experience.

My first trip to Houston--Yeah, I live in Texas. Yes, I've lived here since I was four. No, I'd never been to Houston before this weekend. Guess what? I've never been to Austin, either. Get over it.

My first time eating Greek food--Well, I don't know many Greeks, sooooo I don't really expect for this to surprise anyone. But the food was good. The place was called One's A Meal. I had some pepperoni pizza, tried some of Kurt's bread/toast/chips things, and had a bite of Brytni's grape leaf/meat/lemon sauce thing. It all tasted pretty swell.

My first time eating Indian food--One of the guys that hangs out with the band is Indian. Before he brought us back to College Station, he took us to the London Sizzler. My stomach was hurting, so I didn't eat much. I tried some bread stuff that was pretty good.

My first time on the radio--My lady friend has a radio show that she plays DJ for every week. When we got home, she took me to the station and we spun some cool tracks. You should check it out. The show is good, the music is good, and you can learn about giraffes. You really have no reason not to check it out.
