Weekend!

This weekend was pretty amazing! Yesterday Kara and I went to the Pacific Science Center for the Harry Potter Exhibition that they have there right now until January.It. Was. Amazing. They had props and costumes from all the movies! We wanted to touch everything, but of course that's not allowed... I would have taken pictures to post, but there were no cameras allowed, so that was a bit of a bummer. I feel like my infatuation with Harry Potter has come full circle now, even though it really hasn't. It's weird to think that from the time I was 8 or 9, I've read and re read all the books a hundred times! And then to actually see all the stuff from the movies that were made of the books that I love so much... It was just crazy!

After the Potter exhibit, we walked around the Science Center for a bit. We went into the butterfly house and a butterfly landed on my head. Then we left and went to the Northgate Mall for a bit before the Bo Burnham concert started. We went to a store called Forever 21, which is a nice store for college kids to shop at because everything is so super cheap. I bought a cute sweater and a pair of warm tights for 20 bucks. After we looked at everything in there, we went and ate at Panera Bread which is my new favorite place to eat. They have the most delicious black bean soup and bread bowls and the sandwich that Kara got looked amazing.

After eating, we went into the mall and walked around for a bit. We went into Zumiez (a store for skaters and boarders) so Kara could buy a beanie like mine. We talked to the guy in the store for awhile who was a bit pushy about trying to get me to buy something but I already have enough hats to last me a life time, so I had to keep coming up with reasons why I wasn't going to buy one from him. We kept walking around for bit, went into a REALLY expensive shoe store that had super cute boots, and then decided we should leave before we decide we want new shoes.

So we drove back to the Showbox Sodo. The doors opened at 7, but we didn't know that. So we got there at 6 and stood in line in the cold for an hour. It wasn't too bad though. When we finally got let in, it was open seating so we got to sit pretty close. After the show he always does meet and greets so we stood in line for half an hour afterwards to meet him again and get a picture with him. He was so funny to talk to in person!

Anywho, I have to go to homework now

  1. Homework? What a novel idea.

    I have some chapters done for NaNoWriNo but I am quite behind because the past few days have been too much other stuff going on. I should go to a fire-lookout!
