Boozy Brunches and Poetry Readings

It's Monday again and I am soo tired. Last week was full of concerts and happy hours with family and friends.

Me and my roommate went to see Solange's show last Tuesday. She is such a fun performer and a great dancer!

I finally got to hang out with one of my cousins that I didn't even know existed and come to find out he lives on the next street! So from now on I hope to try to build closer connections with family on my father's side, and hopefully a family reunion this summer!

I didn't have set plans this past weekend but it still turned out to be great! Me and my friends found a fun hole in the wall with cheap drinks and a great DJ. Saturday we spent the afternoon with one of my favorite writers, Nikki Giovanni!  She told us some great stories and she kept us laughing. She read us a few of her poems and signed our books. I'll never forget meeting such an incredible woman! Later we had drinks and dinner at one of our favorite spots, Ben's. Sunday we had a boozy brunch at a really cute restaurant called Nage. The food was amazingly good and the bottomless mimosas came in a few different flavors. I'm still recovering this morning. Lol!

How was your weekend?
