Somethin' 'bout the summertime

Went to the first summer classical concert in Millennium Park tonight.  I asked a girl in my class if she wanted to come along so we grabbed a bite and then went to listen.  I was vastly unprepared and without a jacket or blanket, but it was still so much fun.  If you know me, you know that I LOVE classical music and just don't go a lot because I don't have the money.  But the good thing is, these concerts are free all summer!  It's amazing.

At lunchtime, I stopped by the park where the symphony was rehearsing.  Let's just say I have found what I shall be doing every Wednesday at lunch for the rest of the summer.  Bliss.

During the concert, I just thought, "Look at this.  Look at me.  I'm really doing this.  I freaking live here now."  Pretty cool thought.

I'm super excited for the rest of the series and hope I can find people to go with.  If not, I'm going anyway though.  Love it too much to care if I'm alone.  Especially excited for "Bolero."  I've loved that piece since I first heard it in Music Appreciation in high school.
