For my last spring break ever (unless I become a teacher, I guess), I went to Austin, TX with my roommate for South by Southwest, which is essentially a week long music festival, among (many) other things. It was basically heaven (with a lot of walking).
Live music = awesome. Where we lived = not so awesome. Our Motel 6 (left) felt like walking back into the 80's, complete with a retro bedspread and SDTV (bolted down because they're in demand). We shared the Days Inn (right) with three other girls, by which I mean we shared recycled bathwater since our drain clogged. This picture was taken two hours after the last shower. Ick.
The one on the left was delicious (two meats - Ron Swanson would be proud), the one on the right (alligator on a stick) not so much.
I used the bus as a diversion to take a picture of THIS SHIRT THAT SOMEONE ACTUALLY THOUGHT WAS A GOOD IDEA TO PURCHASE AND THEN LATER WEAR IN 2012
I didn't get the memo that we were folding our arms.
Seeing the Shins with a lot of people.
Latitude 30. My favorite venue, even though I never stepped inside it. They had windowless windows so you could watch and listen from the street. Foxy Shazam was playing at the time I took this, who are borderline insane: the lead singer lit and smoked a full pack of cigarettes and said things like "If Foxy Shazam were an animal in the zoo, we would be one that bites your head off!"
It was a good week. My last hurrah before I go to die in Utah.
