the long awaited occurs as well as some spontaneity

Monday. I ran into someone, who must not named but that i had a thing with for two weeks then got sick of and broke his heart. I'm bad like that. Anywho so we'd kinda been avoiding each other all year, avoid the awkward right, with the occasional two sentence conversation. Then lately it's been moving more to the four or five word conversations. anyways, so i ran into said person on Monday as i was looking for a lab room that i don't usually had. So he walked all around the building with me as i tried to find it. of course i found it about 10 to 15 feet away from where i first walked, the building was a square and i went the wrong way. It was brought up that i was going to the vampire weekend concert on Thursday, he wasn't going but his brother was. Apparently, I should sell cars because I'm really good at making something sound exciting and super fun. Due to the fact that he texted me the next day saying he bought a ticket, weeell 'his brother had finally convinced him to get the ticket'. Yes, i'm selfish enough to say that i probably had a factor in this decision. Also how was i getting a ride there? Crap! Now, I'm not good at lying so I had to greatly suppress the urge to say that I riding my flying carpet there and that all the rug room was full. So, I told him that I was driving and offered him a ride. Luckily, my good friends Sean and Joe were hitching a ride as well. You better bet that I threatened Sean with swords and fireworks if he didn't call shotgun.

Thursday: So we get there! Finally, Vampire Weekend. I'd only been waiting for that show for about oh, three months. We have to wait in line, and the said boy gives me his jacket, i was grateful for him then. But I didn't offer it back to him when I could tell he was cold and say "I feel bad." like I usually would've. Rude, I know. But I was enjoying it.
So, the opening act was The Blow. If you've never heard of her, yes her just one person, go look her up. Live, preferably. She's crazy. Seriously. She did a tribute and this is how she announced it, "Now I'm going to do a tribute to all those gay boys on the dance floor who've had their hearts broken. Then they turn it into a flame." and yes, she did a tribute flame dance and at the end she said, "Don't try to imitate a gay boy, it's hard." Video will be on facebook shortly. Then she kept going on about this celebrity she was writing for, but a recent scandal prevented it from going out. It was Lindsay Lohan. And she kept saying the FUNNIEST things about her. oh. my. gosh. some of them bordered on inappropriate since the recent scandal is about her being a lesbian and going through a breakup with her lover. She's psycho. And I want her as my new best friend.

Then, between the acts this two girls come pushing their way up trying to get to the front. The people in front of me sadly wouldn't let them through so they were stuck in my side. Literally. I swear they were drunk or high or something because two people have never moved so much while talking. They were oddly touchy with each other which is also why i suspect substance use. Anyways I had my elbows out and would push back when they pushed me because dang you better believe I was not giving up my spot. I also appreciated the encouraging comments from Yoseph by my side while battling for space with these chicks. So the short girl turns to me and says, "You're rude. What's your sign?" ...my what "My what?" "Your sign. You're a Libra huh? That would make sense. When's your birthday?" So I told her, because honestly I was generally interested. "Oh, you're a Leo. That makes sense." Worst insult..I have EVER heard in my life. Amber says I should've said "What's your sign, a bi-otch?" haa oh how I wish I thought of that.

Then Vampire Weekend comes on. Oh. Baby. Instant mosh pit. Wasn't expecting that. It was my first real one ever. and it was BEAUTIFUL. THEY are beautiful. and my boys looked after me so I wasn't ever close to being killed. I love vampire weekend so much much much more. Afters we went and got Horchata's and listened to Horchata. So much Love that night. It's funny how more of this post is leading up to the wonderful. Honestly though, how do you describe something so wonderful? You can't. You just feel it.

Also. Saturday Night. I'd been up for doing nothing that weekend because Vampire Weekend wiped me out. Don't worry, i've got my priorities right. Vampire Weekend..then too sick for school and work haha. anywho. So Amber and I were sitting on the couch and this commercial comes on. This girl loves purple so much that she paints her whole room purple and at the end she says to her mom, "Now can I dye my hair purple?!" Amber turns to me, "Wanna dye our hair purple tonight?" I say, "ok." It was such a casual exchange, it was funny. So we went to hot topic and bought bleach and purple dye. Now I have two purple streaks in my hair. And I have to wear a huge beanie to the testing center so they'll let me in. Go BYU standards! Usually, I think this type of stuff is tacky, but I'm rather fond of my purple.
