and it's back..

About four nights ago I went to Arcade Fire at the greek theater.
I went with Mia, Lena, Brian, Louisa, and Kate. Evan (intern) went the next day. It was one of the best concerts i have ever been too. First we went to dinner in Silverlake, at Electric Lotus. Such a tight restaurant there was a dj in there playing the yyy's and stuff like that. We danced around. So then we got to the greek and Louisa and I went backstage to the green room before they went on. Hung out in there, for a while. Then they came on and I went wild. Like, it was not a concert, it was an experiance. They were so great and just listening to their music now is different. My favs, In the Backseat, Neighborhood # 1 tunnels, and of course Rebellion (Lies).












So the next day I slept at Zoe's house, we went to the country mart/ Zenzoo for dinner. Last day ever, we hung with some samo kids there, and saw some familiar faces. After we went back to Zoe's and went in the hot tub.






Thursday was all sleep, then friday, some pictures from the last day of school.






After school Zoe, Evan, and I went into the palisades for Starbucks and saw parker, maleek, sophie, maddy XXX, and some girls Zoe knew and i dinnnt. Then we walked back to her house.





Then we went to the country mart for dinner always amazing and caught up with some old friends




Then we went to The Roxy to see Simon Dawes and the colours. Simon Dawes was so amazing, they are seriously so great live. Wylie is so good at bass, and blake and the rest. We met up with Caroline there, and we got our picture taken for Nylon by Cassie, and possibly The Skull Set by Jack Siegal. It was flooded with XRDDDS graduates, ben lear, cassie just everyone. During Simon Dawes Zoe and I were dancing and Caroline was sitting on the stage.







After Simon Dawes we talked to Blake, Taylor and Wylie for a while and the The Colour came on, they were also fantastic, it was there final LA performance and they really gave their best, Wyatt (lead singer) went crazy, we were in the front (basically on the stage) and he just kept coming into the audience, and throwing water of course.






It was such an amazing night. Today i studied for finals, but tonight oh my. First i ventured to Marc Jacobs, bought a shirt and some jewelry. I went to Manu Chao with Lena, Brian, and Kate. First we went to dinner at some italian place and then we drove all out to the La sports arena, cuz Mano Chao likes to be "among the people". It was such an experiance, we were looking down on 329048304902349 moshers cuz brian and kate needed seats. It was like Coachella but in other langueges. Lena and I were dancing insanely the entire time. After we got Jack in the box, pictures to come tomorrow when i figure out how to work new/old camera.
Ah Manu Chao, it felt like he was god. Kept my eye out for Robin but there were thousands there. He was so politcal and inspiring, even if he was speaking spanish/french.
