When I was in New York I talked with my friend Maggie on the phone and we were discussing the arrangements for my birthday party. Since Nathan's birthday is on the 20th, mine is on the 22nd, and Stephanie's is on the 26th, we decided it would be best to combine all of the parties into one. Our conversation turned to Ayumi Hamasaki and Sailor Moon, and I came up with the amazing idea to turn it into a COSTUME party, Genius. I talked to Christine and we decided to go as j-street pop-fashion super heroes. Other costumes included: Stephanie [farmer] Andrew [H20], Conor+Sawyer+Michael [suit people] Gabrielle [big hair], Maggie [Annie Hall], Tish [an oriental], Nathan [Ninja Turtle], Rick [Pikachu], Nicole [maid from Rocky Horror], Maria-Veronica [Avril Lavigne], Zack [Mr.Urine].
