Happy New Year

Happy New Year all! Okay, so it's not a new year for you. But aside from tomorrow being the first day of the rest of my life, it's also my 22nd Birthday. I've decided that it's time to make some changes with my life, and what better time to start than a birthday?

The biggest and most signifigant change is that I am going to be an active person. I'm going to start working out and eating right. My goal is to lose a signifigant amount of weight over the next year. I know I've talked about it before, but I'm super motivated now, and ready to make this happen. I've started doing research and looking into what I need to do to become a better, more active person.

I'm really pumped for this. I know I can do it. I know I'll feel much better after I get to my goal. And I'm not saying I want to be a stick. I know I will never be a size 6, and I'm okay with that. I just want to be more active and healthy. I think I'll be a lot happier.


On to other things, the Kanye West concert was amazing!

The show started with Lupe Fiasco opening up. He did good and his set was pretty chill. I enjoyed it. Not everyone was getting into it, but I did.

Next was N.E.R.D. they were even better. Their show was all about energy and hype. I loved it. I would love to see them play at Bogarts or some smaller venue so I could rock out hard core style.

Next was the big man, Mr. West. I was really split on how I thought the show would go. I was hoping it would be good, but since West has a reputation for being diva-esque, I wan't entirely sure. Well....honestly it was probably the best show I've ever been to. The stage was amazing, the set was amazing, the live band was amazing too. He had a large percussion section, and I was totally into that.

Anyway the show was a no camera show. They made you throw your batteries out at the door. Luckily I had stashed another pair in my purse, which they missed. So I got a few pictures of each of the acts. They actually had ushers standing in the aisles to check. If you got caught they made you delete your pics. I ended up taking a few and then took the batteries out of my camera so that they would think I hadn't taken any. A few is better than none, so yeah.

Anyway, the show was great....totally worth the money.

I've been going back and forth in my head as to whether or not I should get a hold of this one guy, and as much as I want to, it's probably not the best idea, so I'm gonna have to pass.
