I absolutely love the city...

A cute little park on the way to my friend's apt building

Killer's new digs

The fountain in the center of the park

Fireworks at Navy Pier. They're every Saturday in the summer. So much fun :)

Hopefully my *last* new bike for a while

Just picked it up tonight. It rides like a dream! Cannot wait to take it on the lakefront trail tomorrow morning :)

Brand New!

Brand New, my ALL TIME FAVORITE BAND, is projecting a summer release of their new album. They just announced less than a dozen U.S. tour dates and of course Chicago sold out in minutes (they're small venues but Brand New always sells out no matter where it plays). The other closest show is in Detroit and tickets go on sale Thursday so cross your fingers that I score some! No St. Louis date has been announced yet and idk if they will make a stop there :(

More concerts!

I won 2 free tickets to the Warped Tour in Chicago August 1st! My friend got us tickets to see Blink 182 and Fallout Boy on August 4th in Milwaukee, too. We'll be 15 rows from the stage!
I cannot wait!!

New iPhone software and new MODEL announced!

The latest iPhone software will be released June 17th for free to all iPhone users and the newest model the iPhone 3GS will be released 2 days later. The iPhone 3GS will be double the memory for the exact same price I paid for my current iPhone 3G last year. I'm eligible for an upgrade through ATT on August 20th so the new iPhone will be my belated birthday gift to myself :)

Concertssss

I am going to see Green Day July 13 at the United Center! I'm also looking into tickets for No Doubt and Paramore. And I'll of course be at all the free shows during Taste of Chicago :)

New bike!

This one will be secured inside with a kryptonite u-lock. I will not let this one get stolen. It's a ladies bike (the other was a men's bike) so it's smaller but it will probably fit me better since I am only 5'7" haha. Oh, and it's hot pink. Malibu Barbie would be jealous lol :)

Sox game Tuesday

My friend Cait and I went to the Sox game on Tuesday because they had half off bleacher tickets. It was awesome! We won 6-2 and we were one television when Thome hit a triple run. It landed exactly 4 rows behind us! And the guy sitting directly behind me caught a ball one of the As outfielders (Sweeney, a former Sox) caught and threw into the stands. It was super cold but definitely worth it :)

The only cool thing Collinsville ever does...

Collinsville is hosting a Wii Guitar Hero Tournament this Friday. I'm super mad I won't be there because I am awesome a Guitar Hero!!

Oh, and my really good friend Cait got Blink 182 concert tickets for August 4th in Milwaukee. The seats are 15 rows back. Can't Wait!

Internship update

I didn't get the internship I interviewed for. It would have conflicted with my work schedule so I'm actually glad I didn't get it. Plus I'm working 30 hours a week now so that might have been a bit much on top of it because I would be required to work 10+ hours a week.

My new haircut and first tattoo!
