Crepes, Half&Half & Purikura
January 25, 2014 - Day 1
Part 2/2
..... After we finished resting up and getting our phones charged, we got dessert crepes at Crepe Luv since Stephanie and Bianca has never tried it. We built our own crepes and got to watch them make it for us. They made it rather quickly (quicker than the time it took for Bianca and Stephanie to order so they didn't get to see much of the process lol). The crepe base was more chewy than crispy, they charge extra if you want it crispy and our crepes were about $7 each depending on what you put on it. It was satisfying.

Afterwards, we went to Half&Half Teahouse in San Gabriel since Bianca and Stephanie has never experienced the wondrous feeling of holding a large boba cup. Sadly, the drinks weren't in the large cups like we expected. I think that this is the only Half&Half that does not have the cups, but the drinks still tasted the same and as great as ever.

Bianca's iced milk w/ red bean and honey boba, Stephanie's iced milk with caramel, pudding, and honey boba, Lily's red bean milk tea with pudding and honey boba
Lily also came up with the crazy idea of having everyone write a dare on a strip of paper. Since we are on a trip to a place that we don't live in, we wanted to try something new and do something crazy since no one knew us or would even remember us anyways. So after we all wrote our dares, we folded them all up so no one could see and played UNO. The person who comes in last has to draw a dare. Steph lost the first round and got Bianca's dare "Tell a stranger they're cute."
Lily lost the second round and drew Steph's dare "Lick a car in front of Half&Half."
As for the last round, Steph was the first to win and Bianca and Lily went on for perhaps 20 minutes. Bianca won and Lily drew the dare, "Do the worm in CVS."
We then walked over towards CVS where Lily had to lick a car twice because Bianca didn't get the first time on camera.. Since Lily didn't know how to do the worm, she just rolled around in CVS. Afterwards, we went to Diamond Plaza to take purikura photos. It was deserted since it was 11pm when we arrived, but Cue was opened 24 hours. After arriving, Steph had to use the restroom and we rode an elevator down. On the other side of the elevator, Steph recognized Kiki (girlfriend of Ty from a band called Issues) and Ali who is also a girlfriend of one of the band members named Skyler. It was a surprising coincidence and Steph held a conversation with them.
After we parted our ways, we went to the restroom to get ready for picture taking. Then we rushed over to Cue and picked out a machine.
It had been Bianca's and Lily's goal to take purikura pictures together since middle school. It was also Steph's first purikura experience. (purikura: Japanese sticker pictures that you take in a large photo booth and get to cutely decorate afterwards; around $10 a session)
After we finished getting our photos taken, we cruised around Rosemead to find a place that was still open to grab a bite. Every store was closed or closing up, but we settled for a boba teahouse around the area. Our cell phones were dead by then so we couldn't take any photos. Each of us ordered an appetizer and ate outside the storefront since they were closing up. Steph finally completed a dare by getting a guy's attention before he left. It went something like this:
Steph: Hey! You're cute!
Guy: Me? *looks around and points at himself*
Steph: Yeah
Guy: Oh...thank you.... I think you're cute too.
It was a great experience for Steph since she didn't feel like opening up. P.S. She's glad Lily made her feel really bad for almost not completing her dare. (She also drove in a circle around him and his group of friends in the van...) It was a really exciting and fun night day.
