BONJY!
wowee.
On Thursday night I went to see Bon Jovi in Continental Arena with my sisters. It was awesome, awesome, awesome!
The opening band was nothing special [i don't know their name and they weren't very good]. Bon Jovi got on stage at about 8:30. He came on in the middle of the crowd and everyone was screaming and it was just really funny. No one really knew the first song which was kind of poor song selection but the second was Shot To The Heart. The crowd went nuts! The last minute of the song he didn't sing at all, it was just the crowd with all of our hands in the air. It was so beautiful to watch and I was all smiley. My sisters and i kept on looking at each other and laughing. Random side point: when i was little my sisters used to call me Bon Jovi because well, why not? and so the experience of seeing them with my sisters was really...sentimental *snort* but true. Anyway, they played all of the oldies but goodies and a bunch of new songs as well. It was the last night of the tour and so they played for like 2 hours and 45 minutes, which is insanely long for any show [pearl jam and iron maiden play for that long and plus- i know, nate]. When they played A Bed of Roses the entire place was lit up with lighters- NO CELL PHONES!!! That made me deliriously happy, i hate the cell phone thing. Ugh. But, it makes sense that it was all lighters because their largest fan base is 40 year old hicks from Joysey. Nonetheless, it was good to go back to the old school ways.
Anyway, i got home at about 1:15 and i had to pack for my school's Shabbaton. I had like 3 hours of sleep, woke up, showered and was on my merry way. The shabbaton was in the Homowak- coined: the HomoCRAP [we're so clever]. But, seriously the place is old and smelly and ewwy. But, shabbaton was still a lot of fun. My voice was sore from the concert, shabbat, and with no sleep i have absolutely no voice. I have never lost my voice like this. I sound awful! But, it doesn't really hurt so i can't complain too much.
My friends and i had connecting rooms so it was really like one big room. I liked that a lot, because we were ALL together. It was a lot of fun and i can't believe it's over. Holy crap, I'm a freaking senior. No, i didn't just realize this but it was reinforced this weekend. I really don't want to grow up, graduate, israel, college, none of that. Oh man. I'm going to sleep and then i'm going to hide away so time won't get me.
well, best wishes and a merry one to ye'.
