Me: "Can I have the Green Apple Green Tea with Bubbles?"
*roach crawls on water cooler*
Me: "It's ok. I have an immune system for a reason."
Friend: "That's what people with AIDS said and now they don't have it anymore."
For the record, I did drink the bubble tea regardless of the roach incident. Tapioca was to soft and the drink was too expensive as the rest of the menu is.

Costco Wholesale #318

Neighborhood: Sunset Park
Costco is a contributor to America's expanding waistline. Honestly, are you really going to finish a whole tub of cream cheese and two over sized jars of peanut butter? And if you don't, wasn't much of a saving was it?
I'm guilty of having a weakness for their sheet cake with the thick frosting. Thank god they don't make them in a small size or I would indulge every time I'm there.
The place is crowded on the weekends but living in New York for all of my life, I barely even notice. The lines at the cash register are a mess but I never wait more than 10-15 minutes.

Better and more choices of toppings and yogurt flavor. Best of all, you can make it however you want.
Their sign bugs me. It reads like "16 Hindles" to me. I didn't know what the store sold at first.

V 2 Beauty Salon

Neighborhoods: Chinatown, Little Italy
Overall, the haircut is amazing and still well worth it for $30. It's hard to find a salon in Chinatown that will give an edgy haircut that looked just like the picture.

So I took a leap of faith and went into V2 for a haircut. Ray (Off Tuesdays) ended up cutting my hair and he did an amazing job. The haircut I wanted was no easy task either. I got the Bill Kaulitz cut. After years of merely satisfactory cuts from asian hair salons, I didn't have high hopes. I wasn't let down, Ray gave me the haircut I wanted. He even showed me how to style it, (I was surprised it literally took two minutes to spike it all up) and I came out with hair exactly like Bill Kaulitz. I couldn't stop smiling when I left the salon.
If you want edgy, ambitious haircuts for cheap ($28), definitely come here.

No Lists
Christine hasn't made any lists yet.
Me: I saw a picture of a model wearing a headband with a giant bow. Is that available for sale?
Sales Associate: I haven't seen it. Check the accessories section.
Scene 2:
Me: Where can I find the leggings with diamond cut outs on the sides?
Sales Associate: We don't have that.
Me: I saw it on the website.
Sales Associate: .........
The staff is completely unhelpful. I know the store is cluttered and F21 has tons of similar styles but I've gotten better service at the H&M on 5th avenue. The staff there are actually knowledgeable about their merchandise.
