• Concert on Saturday was pretty good. Me and Spock headed up there via
  the train, got in line and waited.  When we finally got in, the
  seats were pretty good. It was held in the gym but it was very small so
  we had a great view. In total, I think 200 or so kids showed up so it
  was like your own personal concert.  There were two opening bands,
  Pennyroyals and Raination.  First was halfway decent, the second
  was terrible. Our problem, however, was we had a train to catch at
  midnight because the midnight train was the last one going back to the
  city until 6am and we had no desires to be temporary residents of
  Pleasantville.  Anywho, Black Eyed Peas didn't take the stage
  until 11, so we could only stay for about 20 minutes. We heard Hey Mama
  and two other crappy songs.  It was still great and because of the
  small crowd they just jumped off stage and did some of the songs on the
  floor with us.  Pretty cool.  That guy who is the Wyclef Jean
  wanna be was great....he made jokes and was just cool.  And my
  love, Stacy Ferguson, contrary to popular belief, is not ugly in real
  life.  She's got a great body. Anyway, during the concert we ran
  into Marina and her sister.  They were exactly two rows ahead of
  us and we all just chilled during the opening acts. 

  Oh, almost forgot, on this concert I got shot down the worst I've ever
  gotten shot down before.  At the concert Marina introduced us to
  some of her residents.  Super.  Well on the train ride home
  they happened to be in our car.  There were 2 girls and one guy
  and the guy and one of the girls obviously were together because they
  just ditched the other girl and sat together.  Well Allon goes to
  me, "Hey, invite the blonde over here" and so I'm like, "Sure". 
  So I lean over and ask her to come sit with us since she's alone. She
  glances over like I've got a butcher knife and am looking to murder the
  first person who looks at me, shakes her head no, and ignores us for
  the rest of the train ride.  I'm not sure if that comes off as bad
  as it was but rest assured, it was bad.

  Anyway, I didn't do much the rest of the weekend.  Slept
  mostly.  However, I do believe my parents are planning something
  for my graduation.  My mother has told me on numerous occassions
  to take off work the week of graduation.  My gut feeling tells me
  they're planning a surprise trip.  I mean, why else would I have
  to take a week off?  If they were going to buy me something, like
  say a car, why would I need a whole week off?  Something's amiss
  here.Well, my parents conspiracies aside, I had the end of the year
  dinner with the rest of the tour guides.  We went to Little Italy
  and ended up spending $300 at one restaurant for dinner and $150 at a
  cafe for dessert.  It was great and we ate oh so much.  We
  were like beached whales afterwards, unable to move and only groaning,
  making whale sounds in an effort to digest faster so we could
  move.  It was lots of fun.
