May 27th: Crissy and Stephanie followed my lead and went up to Salem, Utah. Crissy continued on up north to visit her family while Steph and I stayed in Salem. As we were nearly pulling into the drivew
ay, Steph hears on the radio that the 10th caller will win tickets to the BRUNO MARS (who's real name is Peter Gene Hernandez, hence the title) concert in Orem the next week. Being the spontaneous girls that we are sometimes, Steph called in and…won the tickets!!! Crazy, right?! Anyway, Steph and I are pretty big Bruno fans so we got pretty excited.
Now it is common knowledge that college students are not the wealthiest of the bunch and of course we were not about to spend $20 each for some t-shirt that everyone else at the concert was wearing so we made our own =) They turned out super fantastic!!! We actually had a few people ask where we found them because they wanted to buy some - the hours of designing totally paid off.
With our authentic t-shirts, we mastered the smokey eye, bought fake eyelashes and cool MJ gloves to show our love to the indescribable Peter. After two hours of opening acts, Bruno finally showed himself and ROCKED THE HOUSE. Love, love, love!
In this case, we had to stay zoomed in pretty tight to get some good shots of the rockstar but overall that weekend we learned some valuable lessons about communication and friendship leading up to our useful advice: Don't forget to zoom out.
