Back Home
By Byron LaMasters
I'm back in Dallas, and I'm 21! Yay! I did take Josh's advice from my comments. I got drunk, I had fun, and I didn't get thrown in prison. It's probably the only time that I'll ever be taking his advice, but it was fun to be on the same page with him for once. I ended up driving down to Austin on Saturday afternoon, after my Texas Young Democrats meeting. I had dinner at the Brick Oven on Red River with a lot of my UD friends. There were about 12 of us. We then went back to my friend Haley's apartment where I was staying and I got ready to go out. They all chipped in to by me a bottle of Grey Goose Vodka, which we all took shots of at midnight, and my friends tried to sing me happy birthday. After that, we headed towards 6th street where we went to about four bars to get shots before heading down to 4th street. I thought ahead, and we had ourselves a designated driver (Thanks, Mark!). It was a fun night, and we made it back to Haley's around 3:something. Sunday, we went out to The Oasis in the afternoon. I had never been there before. It's not exactly the place to go for food, but it has a great view over Lake Travis. I ordered what I think was the Oasis Sunset, or something like that. It was this $9.95 drink that came in a cup you could keep (I needed a 21st birthday souvenir, right?). It had three kinds of rum and was quite strong. Everyone was waiting on me to finish it. Afterwards we went out to Lake Travis for a little bit, then back to Haley's. I was worn out Sunday night, so I stayed in Austin, then came home today after running several errands.
