On Friday night, my French class went to see Giselle by the Orlando Ballet, which I was super excited for and it was awesome. My very first ballet! We had to dress up, so I wore a pretty dress and black tights. Act II with the Wilis in their gauzy white dresses was stunning and breathtaking. It is my dream to dance en pointe, but I know I never will.
Saturday morning, I woke too early but walked to Starbucks with my friend, and then we shopped on Park Ave a little bit and crossed the train tracks to wander the farmer's market for a bit. We both wore dresses and it was gorgeous out, because Florida in October is still warm enough for sundresses. Then we came back to my room and hung out, watching The Big Bang Theory and burning her new pomegranate candle, even though technically we aren't allowed to have candles in our dorms. Shh.
Saturday night, You, Me, and Everyone We Know was playing at The Haven which is not even ten minutes away, and I wanted so badly to go but my girl wasn't here to go with me and so I wasn't planning on getting to go. Then on Friday, spur of the moment, I decided I simply had to go, and convinced previously mentioned friend to go with me. And it was wonderful. I was dancing and singing my lungs out. I wore this blue floral dress, and my combat boots.
Highlight of the evening: we were wandering around in between sets of tiny bands I've never heard of, and as we walked past the bar, some random older guy yelled at me, "Taylor Swift in the house!" It made me beam.
Today I woke up even earlier and couldn't get back to sleep, which was unfortunate, but I got to wear my new YMAEWK shirt that I love. In conclusion, I spent just over twenty four hours (Friday night - Saturday night) in dresses and it was wonderful.
