(The title was the first thing I heard someone say/yell after I clicked in the box... So there you go.)
Hello, absolutely no one!
How was your day? My day so far is barely anything. I finished Will Grayson, Will Grayson
by John Green & David Levithan the other day. It was very good and I enjoyed it thoroughly. So if you read it and no what I'm talking about... the end is pretty much spectacular, isn't it? I am a huge fan of those over-the-top happy moments and that, my friends, was very happy. So I definitely recommend it to anyone who enjoys Young Adult books!

My brother had bought my ticket and my friend came along to the show and it was so much fun.
I enjoy my fair share of Irish jigs whenever I randomly hear them, but with Flogging Molly that's 80%-90% of their songs... and for some reason I never get sick of it! The show was at First Avenue in Minneapolis and was 18+. I think that was the first age-restricted show I've been to. It was also the first time I feared for my hygiene at a concert; not from sweat or any of that, but from alcohol and weed. The opening band was Big D and the Kids Table, which is a Ska band, and their fans were not really your typical "hardcore" fans, but they were hardcore in the way that they dance maniacally. I thought it might be moshing, but no. Whatever that was... it was NOT moshing. Moving on. There were tall men, short men, and big burly men (and women in all of those categories as well) with their glasses filled to the brim in beer. I would have have not been able to enjoy myself for the rest of the night if that 6 foot 5 man had spilled his beer on me*. So, thank goodness nothing drastic happened. I was a few people from the front of the left side of the stage and when they finished their encore the bassist staggered off stage and practically fells into my hands as other people helped his drunk-ass maneuver around... and guess what? There was another beer in his hand! We honestly should have counted how many he went through.

Next week is the last week of class. I have 2 photo series I need to complete (one in the dark room & one in digital), an assignment of 10+ images I have to print out and put in a portfolio, a studio lighting assignment +print and a very time consuming booklet in InDesign. Wow. That is a lot, but I'm still managing to sit here calmly and not run around in circles. Go me.
Well, I would like to say hello to Marissa Coley. For she is my one and only follower... and I told her to follow me. So, that's pretty much like my life in a nutshell.
Have a lovely night/day/life. xx
*This is not a lie. I hate alcohol and the smell of beer. It disgusts me. Yes, watching the bassist of Flogging Molly become gradually drunk on stage was amusing, but at the same time I couldn't help but feeling like the situation was so... wrong. There still is a part of me who doesn't want to respect a man who does that, but they are an IRISH band... and their last album was called 'Drunken Lullabies'. They like to enjoy themselves. Who am I to judge?
