The Weekend: 5 Things

Processed with VSCOcam with m5 preset

It has been a long time since I’ve had a jam-packed weekend like this one. We were talking about everything we did this morning and already what we did on Friday seemed like it happened last week. We spent our Saturday exploring The Mission, which in a way feels like home to me because it is so similar to Capitol Hill. Since we were in the neighborhood I consciously found myself craving an Earl Grey Milk Tea. Oh and we happen to be in the same neighborhood where Boba Guys is located? How convenient…

Boba Guys doesn’t double up as a shoe start if this photograph confused anyone. We also stopped by Shoe Biz.

Somebody needed a hair chop so we took a number at Fellow Barber. This little doggie was too cute.

Last week, I wrote a post about Urban Putt – the new indoor mini golf course located in The Mission! As a surprise to my friends, I organized a get together for us. Since it was their first weekend open they were in “Beta Mode” and instead of charging $12 per person, we only had to pay $6 per person. Not a bad deal. The golf course was interesting and full of San Francisco character. Our wait was 40 minutes when we got there at 7:30, but understandable since it was opening weekend. The beers were cheap and the place was packed. Unfortunately, we only got about five holes before we decided to throw in the towel. We have commitment issues. I think we need to get our practice going and have been thinking of getting a complete setup done at home so that I am better at this game when I do return.

If you’re looking for something to watch on NetFlix, I highly recommend Short Term 12. I actually blogged about this film last summer when I first came across the trailer and now that I’ve seen the film I think it is extraordinary. If you’re going to watch it, make sure you have a box of tissues next to you. I found myself curled up in a ball weeping over Brie Larson and the rest of the people in this film.

Sometimes, you just have to let it out.

Urban Putt

During my catch up with Mandi last week, she mentioned to me about how she was thinking about doing her birthday party at this new spot in the Mission called Urban Putt. It’s kind of a quirky indoor mini golf place that just opened up last week. It was funny to me because they totally had a place like this in Capitol Hill after we graduated that Mandi and I never made it to. It is not only a great place for a birthday party or any large group, but would be a good idea for a date. A double date. Or like my group likes to do it – a quadruple date with a 9th wheel.

(luv u J-son)

I am v. excited to try this place out and I’m not sure if I can hold out until Mandi’s day of birth.

Also did I forget to mention that there’s also a connecting restaurant and bar? Genius.
