#17 - Go To A Concert

Who did I see, you may ask? None other than the extremely talented and handsome John Mayer, with an opening performance by Phillip Phillips. I've been to three concerts before (Daughtry, Alicia Keys, and The Classic Crime), but this one has got to be my favorite. He performed at The Gorge Amphitheatre, which is an outdoor venue that seats over 20,000 people, is a 9-time winner of Pollstar Magazine's award for "Best Outdoor Music Venue", and declared one of the "Best Outdoor Concert Venues in America" by ConcertBoom! For more info, click here. From your seats on a sloping grass hill, you have a great view of not only the stage, but the Columbia River running just past it, as well as the canyons of Eastern Washington and a beautiful sunset. You are also able to camp in their designated camping grounds the night before and/or the night of the concert, which only adds to the fun!

But the music! John Mayer was phenomenal, the music was amazing, he had the best stage presence, and is an all-around heartthrob. I'm not usually one for spending tons of money on concerts, but this is one I would love to see again. If you've never seen John Mayer Live, or have never visited The Gorge, I recommend doing both at least once in your lifetime!

And as I wait to complete my next bucket list item (this thursday!), I will continue to explore the blogging community. I absolutely love reading other blogs and learning from how they share and display their content. One that I've been looking into is the lovecats inc, which is a fashion/beauty blog that I found because Helen, the author, had commented on my previous blog post. So all you ladies out there, this site is filled with trusted reviews, fashion posts, and much more! She is also doing a giveaway at the moment, so click here for more information.

Obsession

So lately, I've been reading tons of threads and watching loads of vlogs about the Disney College Program. Some of the advice they give is to not let Disney take over your life in between the time of your phone interview and when you hear back from them. Since I haven't had my phone interview yet, I did not pay attention to this piece of advice. That is, until I realized that Disney was taking over my life. It's the only music I listen to, the only movies I watch, the only thing I read about. Every time I get on the internet, I instantly google anything having to do with the DCP. I've even taken time out of studying so I can draw in my Disney coloring book...

So here is my non-Disney solution!

A playlist of songs I've either loved forever, or just discovered within the hour:
Pumped Up Kicks - Foster the People, Hollywood Holt
1901 - Phoenix
Best band in the whole wide world.
Marathon - Tennis
The Green Room - The Tins
Disparate Youth - Santigold
A Day Late - Anberlin
Loser - Beck
Seattle - The Classic Crime
Heart Skips A Beat - Lenka
Save Me From Me - Amber Pacific

Movies I need to watch this week:
Warm Bodies
Life of Pi
Total Recall

And of course, the exams I still need to take...
Abnormal Psychology
Psychological Statistics

All right, hands in. "I hate school" on three. One...two...three...
