lollapalooza really was amazing. 

even though i am currently beyond  exhausted and every inch of my body feels as though i was taken out back and beaten with a baseball bat. muscles i didn’t even know i had are burning…and i’m pretty sure i have shin splints. 

but none of that matters. because lallapalooza was INCREDIBLE. 

i met some really awesome people as a result of tackling the festival solo all three days. i got up close and personal with ed macfarlane of the friendly fires. foster the people rocked it out of the park, not once but twice. i got to see a real live hobbit…and a cute one, at that. i managed to snag a pretty sweet souvenir from the hard rock after party, with a little help from some pretty sweet company…and last, but definitely not least…i met my celebrity crush…and yes, i babbled moronically but i don’t even care. 

the memories and experiences i got to take away from this weekend far exceed the cost of the three-day pass. it may have been my first lolla, but it will definitely not be my last!
