A tale of my many adventures moving from the San Francisco Bay Area to Bethlehem, Pennsylvania. College is supposed to be some of the best years of your life, so hopefully I'll capture them all right here, find out a little more about life, myself, and maybe even you.

Life of a Rockstar
(Yes, that is Stephan Jenkins the lead singer right there. I was THAT close.)
The Third Eye Blind concert tonight was AMAZING. It was in a small little venue in Allentown and I was literally 20 ft. from them which made the whole thing even better. I'm not a diehard TEB fan or anything but every knows a few of their songs from the late 90s (Jumper, How's it Going to Be, Never Let You Go, Semi-Charmed Life, etc.) and I loved their new stuff I heard tonight. Everyone was packed into the club and we all nodded our heads, jumped up and down, and threw our hands in the air like you must do at a rock concert and it was great. I went with Alex and Diz and that made it all even that much more fun since those two are the greatest and awesome to be around.
The whole experience made me think of how awesome it would be to be a rockstar. Imagine the thrill you'd get from going on that stage every night and having people sing along with you and love anything you do. You're basically just having a party every night, traveling the world, and making memories (along with millions). It would be quite a life. Think of Taylor Swift. She is 20 years old, has a world tour, writes her own music, plays guitar/piano/sings, dated Taylor Lautner, won a few Grammys...pretty normal right? It would be an awesome life. I don't know if I could keep up with all the fans and paparazzi all the time though. It would get old fast. That's why I stuck with basketball; athletes get the fame and money while still being able to live a pretty normal life (not that I'm turning away cameramen at my door or anything). I am still a little upset at my mom though for not letting me get a drum set or a guitar growing up. Still a sore spot along with my trampoline and hot tub.

would be a fun life with all the money and fame but a little too crazy for me. I like the simple life. Glad you had fun at the concert! I saw 3 Doors Down once and we were nowhere near as close as you but theres something about being at a rock concert... it was a blast!
ReplyDeleteyes you were deprived. Don't forget we never bought the Barbi car either.
