A Bravo Weekend

On Friday, November 13th, I went to Abravanel Hall with my friend Morgan and her little sister to see Bravo Broadway with the Utah Symphony. She called me up about three hours before it started and asked if I wanted to go. I got ready and headed out the door. I think I have a problem with getting lost with people when I'm in the car with them, because on our way to Salt Lake, we took the wrong exit and had to turn completely around. I think I'm bad luck when it comes to driving and getting lost. We eventually made it to Salt Lake but soon found ourselves roaming around the streets of Salt Lake. Finally I texted Google for Abravanel Hall's address. We found the building, but now came the parking. We drove around for a while until we finally found a place to park. At this point, it was 8 o'clock. We were late. We ran down the streets and had to pass a few scary homeless guys. We evetually made it into the building and got our tickets. When we went to be seated, the lady told us (in quite the annoyed voice) that we sat almost exactly in the center. So when the song ended, and the clapping began, we embarrassingly climbed over people to get to our seats. Good thing we won't ever see them again. On the positive side, the performance was AMAZING! The performers have been in Broadway plays such as, 'The Phatom of the Opera, Wicked, Les Miserables,' etc. Their voices were amazing and blew me away. I got so into it, that I have been obsessed with Phantom of the Opera ever since. By the end, the audience had given a total of about 6 or 7 standing ovations. It was phenomenal. I love Broadway music. {Morgan and me}

The next day I was going to watch 'The Phantom of the Opera' with Morgan, but I had a date with Cubby. We went as a double with Ana and Cameron. We're all in HOSA together so it was really fun. The boys surprised us and took us to Laser Quest for laser tag. It was quite coincidental when we took the wrong exit. (I really think I'm cursed). When we got there we played two rounds. The first round was couples vs. couples, and the second round was girls vs. boys. I'm proud to say that I beat Cubby all around. I tagged him more times than he tagged me, and in the overall rank of about 28 people, I placed 14 and he placed 17. I was pretty happy. :) Afterwards, we went to Coldstone for ice cream, then went to Cubby's house to play foosball and ping pong. We had a great time. (Sorry, no pictures for this event).
