Today's the day, I'm officially old. No more "forever 21" jokes, I have crossed over. I spent the day with my best friends and my little brother at the final stop of the 2017 Vans Warped tour. It was epic. From being tossed around in the pit during Silverstein's set, to almost passing out in the front for Neck Deep, to almost getting punched in the face, it was a day for the books. I was sad I wasn't able to be with all of my family, but I spent it with my best friends and some of my favorite bands. Last year, the day before I turned 21 I was spent at Warped Tour San Diego.my brother and his friends went with me last year, we had such a good time. I live for live music, and having my baby brother there with me was something I never thought I'd have. I love having him around, knowing he's got my back. I've never had someone to share the same taste in music with, and now I finally do. We had a blast last year and this year he was the one throwing blows and ending up on the other side of the venue after a set. It was so much fun. Next, was finally exposing my best friends to the wild adventures of warped tour. We got to enjoy the music of Andy Black and Falling In Reverse and singing til our lungs have out. They had never been to a festival and I'm glad that this was their first one. No matter what happens or where life takes us, I know these two will be with me through it all. I am in awe of the memories and the adventures we've been on the past five years, and I can't wait to see where God takes us in this new season. Life would be a lot harder if I had to do it alone, but I have not own, but two best friends in the same area of life as I am, and for that I'm grateful.
When I was younger, I was never allowed to listen to the music I do now, or even imagine about going to a concert. Now that I'm older and can make my own decisions I choose to do things I want for myself. Now spending your birthday with a bunch of punk rock bands and sixteen year old girls isn't what you would call typical for a twenty-two year old, but it's how I chose to spend mine. I want to live, be free, and not care about what others think, that started on the day I turned 22. I've been terrified of life for way to long, it's time to start living. Cheers to a new year, a new season, and new adventures. Let the games begin.
