Yesterday was a fun day.
I worked as usual, and tried to decide if I was going to be doing the alliance thing that night.
The Atlanta Symphony Orchestra was having "Alsop's Bernstein and Brahms"
I got on the train, and headed downtown. So far, all good. I got there, and I could not contact anyone, since I didn't have their numbers. I started to fidget at that point. Called the numbers I knew, and nothing, they were not going. I end up going in, and see familiar faces, but they are already heading in. Ok, fine, i see more familiar faces, at the box office. I think to myself "All good, I'll be taken care of." Sorry... Wrong.
So, they end up buying the tickets, and head it. I feel a bit let out of that one. Ok, I go to buy the tickets, no problem. Well, yeah, there is. First I didn't remember what I was buying tickets from, and didn't know where to seat. Besides, the ticket lady was rude, and had no patience for my lack of information. I moved aside, tried calling again, nothing.
At this point, I try to buy a ticket again, but the student tickets are to be paid with cash only. Ok, I walk outside for a bit, frustrated, and feeling left out. I would have normally headed home at this point, but the hell wit it, I go in. I ask where there is an ATM, and there is one for my bank, within 25 steps from where I was standing. I get the cash, pay for my ticket, and head in. Of course, since the orchestra had alredy started, I had to waite until the first piece was completed. No problem, with all the time I had lost, I got to the door just as it ended.
Now, here's the awsome part. Remember the first group that headed in, the ones I knew? Well, my sit was exactly the chair near them. It would be the seat I would have gotten, if I had the chance to talk to them.
So, it's just amazing. By the odds, I'm left to fend by myself at first, but all ends up perfectly right anyways.
The pieces are well played, and interesting, and then we left for Taco Cabana.
Taca Cabana was nice, and the food was well prepated. I sat with Joey, Stanley, Tim, Oliver, Marc, and Ithink Christinne. It was fun, and the chats were interesting. Switching from topic to topic, and everyone got a chance to enjoy it. It was a nice social gathering, and we were there for about 2/3 hours. So around 12:55, it's time to head back.
Ohh oh, 12:55!!! I'm sure the train has pretty much stopped running by then.Well at least by the time I get to the station it would have. Ohh boy, what to do?
Well, there was an easy solution. I ended up sleeping on the floor of Tim's dorm. Since class was in the morning, and afterwards I would head home, it was all good.
It's funny, that I have been in situations and places, that I really have never been before. It was all fun, and while I did get a smidge frustrated, all ended up well. I met new people, had nice chats, and things ended up happy.
