On another note, this past weekend I made my way to L.A. for the Local Natives show at Walt Disney Concert Hall. It's impossible for me to explain how special it was for me. Every song left me speechless and frozen. My good friend Mel and I had to brace each other through most of the songs! I was lucky enough to be seated with her and Matt's family, who I absolutely love. That made the amazing experience even more special for me. My heart is still overflowing with pride and love for these guys. I'll upload some photos later this week, but here's a little taste of what the show entailed:
This quote sums up how we all felt that night to a tee:
"As Local Natives left the stage, the man sitting to my left turned to me and said in all sincerity, 'I think this is what church is supposed to feel like.' I laughed as he walked away, but understood what he meant. Everyone in the room felt connected to something greater, to some unifying force. Perhaps, it was music; perhaps, pride for Los Angeles. Regardless of what it was, everyone felt full of life." -Giana Hughes (Proxart)
Big thanks go to Aya of Strawberry Koi for taking care of & everything nice while I was away! Isn't her post adorable? I'm not surprised! She's too adorable for words herself!
