fun fun fun

All I can think about is how excited I am to go home in two weeks. Unfortunately, this time in two weeks I'll be back at campus. But two weekends from now, I'll be home and with Amy and all my Fairfield friends and it's going to be so lovely.

This weekend was another weekend where I only had Latin homework. I was intending to get it all done Friday afternoon so I had yesterday and today free, but that didn't end up happening. I ended up spreading it out between yesterday and today, and I finished it earlier this afternoon, which was pretty great. It still led to the uncertainty of what to do with myself all weekend though. It did lead to the opportunities of lying around in bed all day though, which were pretty nice. I was exhausted all weekend - especially today - to the point where I felt like a zombie any time I walked around and I was barely able to focus and everything. It was pretty ridiculous. I need more sleep.

The Andy Grammer concert was last night, and it was awesome. This guy named Chris Wallace opened, and I surprisingly liked him! The beat of one of his songs kind of sounded like California Gurls, leading me to make the comment that he kind of reminds me of Katy Perry, which lead to everyone in my group being very amused.

The highlight of Chris Wallace's set was when he sang "We Are Never Ever Ever Getting Back Together" by Taylor Swift to a girl in the front row. I was dancing along and singing louder than I probably should have, but what can I say? I love me some Taylor Swift. (Her new album comes out tomorrow and I AM SO EXCITED.)

And then Andy Grammer came out and he pretty much brought the house down. I only sat for one of his songs, and that was because I was singing and dancing to the rest of his set, so I was pretty beat. But overall his set was amazing. Bessie and I fell in love with his bassist though. He had dreadlocks and plays a left-handed bass guitar, which just happens to be purple. People kept on throwing glowsticks at him and he tried to catch them in his mouth. He almost caught two in his mouth. And he caught a couple one-handed, which he used as a mustache. It was SO ADORABLE.

Basically, the show was a lot of fun and I'm really glad I went. It was really nice to get off campus for a night, especially for a concert. Even if I didn't like the musician or knew them that well, I probably would have still gone, since it's a free concert at Knox, and those never happen, unless it's a student performance or something. Not to say that student performances aren't bad, but there's nothing like a proper famous musician.

Overall, it was a good week.

See ya guys later.
