Loved the time I went to see Shrek
It's so easy to write about the negative things. I wonder why that is, and whether that's the case for everybody. I liked my jazz post, and I know it encouraged at least one jazz musician to keep studying, so I'm looking to write more uplifting posts, it just takes time to come up with an idea. But if I wanted to write a negative post, I could write a thousand right now, but it probably isn't going to do any good.
I'll just tell another story, and this one was one of my first fun solo trips in the US. I'm a huge Shrek fan, it's probably my favorite movie of all time, so I was going to go see Shrek The Musical in Madison, WI. I met this guy on the Shrek Discord who was going to see it with me. He was a future NASA scientist from Texas, or at least that's what he told me.
The musical started, and it was like a dream come true, so of course I had to take a couple of photos, only I didn't know it wasn't allowed. And nobody told me it wasn't allowed. So I kept taking them to post them in the Discord group later. Turns out the director was sitting next to me, it was the same guy who gave me free Shrek stickers before the show, and he probably wanted me to promote it online or just didn't care. I still remember Shrek looking pissed off at me for taking his picture. Phenomenal show.
My bus was supposed to come early morning, and it was pretty late, but not quite as late, so I went and found an Asian place where I stayed past closing time, way past closing time, doing my courts homework. I don't know why they allowed me to stay in there for so long, but they didn't seem like they were going anywhere anyway.
