Take Me to the Ball Game



I don't always go to baseball games, but when I do it better be for free!
Which is the only reason why I visited the Angel's Stadium today.
My friend, Jess, was nice enough to take Shannon and I to an Angel's game with tickets she got from her job.
What a good friend and I can't thank her enough!
Not only were the tickets free, but they were club level seats!
I'm not a baseball fan, so I'm not sure if club level seats are anything to be excited about.
However, I still pretended like they were a big deal :)

With this being my first visit to a baseball stadium since my days in summer camp I learned quite a few things:
1. You must rep your home team with their colors! (This should be obvious.)
2. If you're not wearing your teams colors (and shame on you if you're not!) make sure that you're not wearing the colors of the opposing team!
3. The rules of baseball are pretty similar to kickball :o (I know, I know that this may be evident to the average person.)
4. Baseball food is surprisingly good! Buy me some peanuts and cracker jacks puh-lease!! And maybe some nachos too!
5. Baseball players are kinda good looking. OK, really good looking ;P

With or without the good food and eye-candy, the game was still fun.
Having an excuse to whoop and holler is always a good thing!
And knowing what was going on for once helped make the game more interesting :P

So, is baseball now my favorite sport?
Sorry, but no.
Would I go again with friends?
Definitely!
From Milan,
With love.

Countdown to Zero [Days of Summer]

Today is Monday.
Meaning that I have exactly three more weeks until starting my second fall semester at SFSU.
Where did the summer go!?
It went where all of my other fun memories went... in the past :(
Although my many fun outings helped my summer break fly by, I can't say that I met everything on my summer checklist.

MILAN'S SUMMER CHECKLIST:
[X] Re-read the epic poem Beowulf
[sadly, I missed this for work.] See Youngblood Hawke at Make Music Pasadena
[X] See Imagine Dragons live
[X] Celebrate my 19th birthday with close family and friends
[X] Take up swing dancing
[] Visit an art fair
[X] Visit an exhibit
[Not yet! But this Thursday I will!] Go to the beach
[X] Start cycling four days a week
[X] Perfect swimming skills

Not bad for completing more than three quarters of my summer checklist!
Normally I will only check off one!
What did you guys put on your summer checklists!?


From Milan,
With love.
