Zionsville

I'm having fun down here in Zionsville Indiana. I'm visiting my friend Jenna who moved away when we were still in middle school. It's amazing how we have been able to stay close and in touch for so long. I flew in yesterday (July 2nd) but it doesnt feel like it.
Jenna is asleep right next to me, and I, of course, havn't managed to get tired enough to sleep. It seems like I've been here for so much longer. Probably because we did so much that first day.

My flight touched down in Indianapolis around 1ish and Jenna was there to greet me at baggage claim. It was a fun experience because we arranged my visit without any help from our parents, so I was able to attempt to find my way through the NorthWest airport. I did fine, of course, and I'm glad my mother didn't insist on accompanying me all the way up to the security check-point.


Next we went to her house in Zionsville Indiana, dropped off my bags and went to get some starbucks. After a refreshing pashion fruit tea thing, we went to hang out with two friends of Jenna's who were babysitting for a wealthy family. The house was really cool, and it was fun to hang out with the girls. I was surprised at how much we all were alike.

After leaving, we went back to Jenna's and got ready for the Keller William's concert, got some subway, then went to Jenna's exs house (he was also coming to the concert, along with many others.)

Finally, we headed off for Indianapolis and met up with the rest of the gang. There was 8 of us all together, I think. The concert was really fun, despite my expectations. However, the opening set was 2 hours long and even half way through it, I was dying of thirst. Once the first set concluded, we went outside to get some air and get some money so we could buy a beverage. Much to our dismay, we were not allowed to leave the venues' front sidewalk, for fear that new comers would try to sneak into the show.


Keller started around 9 and went untill 11 or 12, I don't remember. The music was upbeat and folky, containing mostly stringed instruments, and not drums. I was uncertain if I would be able to get into the mood of the music, but it was simple and we danced the night away.

We ended our night by hanging out at a friend's house and partaking in a night of Dionysian reveling. What great fun!
I can't wait to see everyone else tomorrow!
