Subject: Midnight, all alone in the moonlight...

Howdy folks! Did anyone see the meteor shower the other day? Apparently it was spectacular but I wouldn't know since I missed it. Drats. I didn't even get to see it on the news!

Two midterms down and Thanksgiving weekend to go. I should feel relaxed but I don't because I know this weekend is going to be crammed with work, not fun. :( But of course I will give thanks for being alive, having great friends and family, and music. Amen. Are you guys doing anything special? Holiday traditions and whatnot? Usually, my family and I would go to San Jose, and we were planning to, but I had to cancel b/c of all the term projects I have to do. :(

I did get to have a little bit of "fun" on Friday when I went to a U2 concert with my friend, who's a U2 fanatic. I mean, extreme fanatic. Think us with *NSYNC back then... U2 played at the Oakland Arena for two nights and she went both nights. The night before she went with another friend and she got to meet two of the band and got Bono's autograph. The second night, she got The Edge's autograph. I know where the crew goes in and out so next time *NSYNC plays at the Arena and I have the time to wait five hours before the concert (which will never happen), I know where to go!

The concert itself was interesting enough. I don't know anything about U2 or their music so the whole experience was enlightening. I mentally compared it to *NSYNC's concert and there were quite a few differences.

1. No dancing! At least, not in a choreographed way.
2. All standing on the floor...no seats.
3. No high pitch screaming!
4. No cute guys on stage.
5. Lotsa beer...LOTS.
6. Lotsa drunk people.
7. A few potheads...right in front of us!! What was this, Woodstock?!
8. Much more spontaniety...Bono pulled a girl up to dance with her (oh my, he gets intimate...and he's married!) and he let a fan go up on stage to play the guitar with the band! That was cool. He also took the American flag and the Irish flag (they're Irish) from the fans and waved them around. He can also sing laying down on the floor.

Ohh, look at the time, I better get back to studying. More on the concert some other time. Talk to you later!
