After work, I hauled it back to my apartment and quickly packed up my suit case for the Emmy Award Ceremony, I literally shoved random clothes in a suitcase. (A little Emmy background for you: The day before I had to move up to NYC, I got an e-mail from the Director of Promo. at NBC informing me that I would receive an "Outstanding Student Production" Regional Emmy Award for the show, "NBC Interns" I co-produced, directed, edited, filmed and starred in!

After an awkward 4-hour-long bus ride sitting next to a neurotic mother on the phone with her son who had an accident in his pants at school, I was finally back home in D.C., and excited to celebrate the Emmy's and my 21st birthday with my family! My parents and little brother Ricky picked me up from the bus stop in Vienna and took me to my favorite restaurant ever, Coastal Flats.
My parents, Ricky and I met up with my sister, Heather, and brother-in-law, Karl at Coastal
Flats; I realized then how refreshing it was to reunite with my family back home and take a little break from the craziness of NYC. In the event of my 21st birthday, I took a stronger interest in the exciting cocktails so I completely overlooked food menu. I began my drinking spree with a Key Lime Martini, followed by a Mango Martini, then a Mint Mojito and a refreshing Margharita....things got blurry thereafter...I'm thinking it was either the rum or tequila that made me a little tipsy...who knows, but I had an awesome birthday party with the fam.
