The Burning of Rome

Amanda’s SD Concert Calendar 10/31-11/6

Posted on by Amanda

Happy Halloween to all and to all a Happy Halloween! I hope you all are having a spooktacular Halloween (sorry, I couldn’t resist)! I’m actually staying in this year. I must be sick because I love Halloween. I suppose after being in Vegas for Halloween last year, coupled with all my recent travel, a night in is what I crave. Perhaps I’ll put on a movie and eat some candy tonight. But that shouldn’t stop you from getting out and about!

You know, waking up today with a gloomy sky made me think I was still on the east coast. Sadly, my alarm to get up for school today reminded me otherwise. I had a fantastic and most memorable trip. It was lovely to be on the east coast not in the dead of winter for once. I wish I was still out there but sometimes, you need to come back to the real world. Maybe. Alright, who needs the real world? Oh wait, the real world has shows. Hmmmmmm.

Greetings from Vancouver, B.C. I am in Canada taking a little vacation before I decide to go back to reality. This post comes to you a day early because of my limited internet access and because knowing me, I’ll get busy doing something else and completely forget about it.

I’m hoping to sample some non-street playing bands tonight at this place called Railway Club. I’m definitely curious to see what Vancouver has to offer in terms of local music.

But SD is still my love and my home so let’s see all the shows I will be missing. You know this means you have to get out there for me, right?

Is it Monday again already? My days are becoming a blur. This summer is proving to be a hot one and all I want to do after my morning ride is come home and pass out. Which is what I did. So, if this seems a tad incoherent, I apologize. I might still be in that groggy phase after you are awoken too early. Another reason my days are all a blur is San Diego has a super huge event coming up this week which I’m attending. Perhaps you’ve heard of a little thing called Comic Con? No? Well, look it up.
