Alright, so, the last while, I've had a semi-difficult time just forgetting all of my stress or frustrations. Tonight, though, was a much different story.
Months ago, I started a "What's Coming Up?" list for myself. First, it was my 21st birthday, which was great. Time spent with family is never under appreciated. Next up was The Lion King musical in downtown Vancouver. It was incredible. One of my favourite disney movies made into real life. I couldn't have asked for a better show. Then came the Backstreet Boys concert. Having been a BSB fan since I was a tyke, I completely enjoyed seeing them....maybe for the 4th time haha. The thing with all of these events was that afterward, even though I had great times, reality hit me again, and I was right back at being stressed and letting the "ugh, I have to do this tomorrow" and the "when was that payment due again?" permeate my brain as soon as I walked out the doors.
Tonight, though, was the conclusion of my summer event list. I went to see Michael Bublé with a co-worker. I have been so excited about it and I was not let down by a long shot. I had a great dinner downtown with a friend, I had a blast jiving with Bublé's opening act, and finally, when it came time for Michael to get on stage, I was in awe. His voice is so raw and powerful. All of my frustrations, annoyances and stress just fell away. I feel pride in the fact that a man so talented has come from this great city. I was almost misty eyed at some points seeing how much emotion he puts into his singing.
The concert ended almost 4 hours ago, and I'm still awestruck at what I saw tonight. It's rare that I'm this speechless about something, but I'm glad I am. Sometimes it's better to not use any words.
