I can hardly believe that tomorrow is thanksgiving already. Wow time has really been flying by these past few years. Thanksgiving is one holiday I always look forward to. I love thanksgiving time, because it's a time when all my family comes to town. Another reason I love thanksgiving is because of the food. I always eat way too much, but it's worth it.
Tomorrow morning I'm heading out to Rushford to celebrate thanksgiving at my boyfriend's grandma's house. I haven't met all of his relatives, so that should be a lot of fun. After that, I am going to my grandma and grandpa's house in Genoa. I always have a great time going there, but it's a little crazy. My mom is one of fourteen kids. So you can just imagine what goes on when you bring that many people together with good food. The house is completely packed and you usually have to wait in line between 10-15 minutes just to get your food. After we eat, everyone just hangs out and enjoys eachother's company. We usually stay there pretty late, but this year is going to be different. I work on black friday at 4:30 in the morning. I'm not too excited about getting up early, but it's kind of fun to see all the crazy people rush in the doors, when the stores open. It is also always super busy so it makes those 8 hour shifts go by quickly. Well, hopefully everything goes smoothly on that day.

After the concert




So it's Tuesday night and I'm still exhausted from the concert. It was a lot of fun, but it definitely wore me out. I got to the La Crosse Center about an hour before the concert started, but the doors were going to open soon. I was freezing as I waited in line, but it was all worth it in the end. After I got in the doors, I had to wait more. I couldn't figure out why the line was moving so slow, and then I realized it's because they had to search each and every person before they were allowed in the building. As I got inside, I realized there were thousands of people there and it felt like it was over a hundred degrees in the La Crosse Center. The concert started out with Saving Abel performing. They did a great job and really got the crowd involved. Everyone was singing and having a great time. After that Shinedown and Avenged Sevenfold performed, and the crowd went crazy. They actually broke the barricade and the concert had to be stalled. We had to wait probably 15 minutes before they could perform because of this problem. The bands said they have never seen an audience that crazy before. People were crowd surfing right over my head, and I was getting knocked all over the place. Half the time I could barely stand up straight, because I was packed so closely between people. I've never been to a rock concert before, but I guess that is usually for a rock concert. I also saw a few fights and a ton of mosh pits. It was pretty crazy, but it was kind of fun to watch. It was definitely a new experience for me, but to my surprise I had a lot of fun.

Concert
So I couldn't really think of anything to write about so I decided to talk about the concert I'm going to this weekened. Sunday night I am going to the Buckcherry, Saving Abel, Shinedown, and Avenged Sevenfold concert. I usually listen to mostly country, pop, and rap, but I'm starting to like rock more now too. My boyfriend always listens to rock music and now he is the one making me go to the concert with him and his friends. I'm actually really excited though. I really like Buckcherry and Saving Abel, so it should be a good time. The only thing im nervous about is the people at the concert. I've never been to a rock concert before, but I've heard they get pretty roudy. I am also somewhat clasterphobic, so this should be interesting. I just hope I don't get caught in the middle of a mosh pit. Anyways, the concert starts around seven o'clock Sunday night which kind of sucks, because I have class early Monday morning. The concert will probably go till late, but o well. Tonight I'm going to make t-shirts for my friends and I to wear to the concert, but I have no idea what to put on them... If anyone has any ideas let me know. :]
I'll be sure to tell everyone how the concert goes in my next blog.

What Happens in Vegas
I've seen the previews for this movie before, but I never went to it in theaters. Once it came out, I thought I might as well go rent it. Ashton Kutcher and Cameron Diaz have the two leading roles in the movie, so I figured it would be alright. To my surprise, I actually really liked this movie. "What Happens in Vegas" is a movie about two people who get married in Las Vegas. The two people were very differnt from each other, but after a night of drinking they got married. There is a twist though. That same night they won a huge jackpot at a casino. In the morning they realize what happened and want to get out of this mess. They tried to get a divorce, but the judge would not let them. Instead of getting a divorce, they were both forced to live with eachother for six months. They tried to remain married, so they both could get some of the money. The rest of the movie is pretty much about the hardships they encounter along the way. Jack is a very messy laid back kind of guy, and Joy is very neat and organized. Each of them tries to annoy the other one so they will leave and lose the money, but this doesn't work. It is absolutely halarious some of the things they do to try and get rid of the other person. In the end they both are actually attracted to one another, which they thought wouldn't ever happen in a million years. Overall I thought this movie was halarious and would recomend it to anyone looking for a movie to watch this weekend.
