The National -- finally!

Yes, finally!

Awe-mazing! Last night was the best concert I ever been to, hands down! I don't think there will be something that could top the whole experience. God thank You so, so much. I know some may find their songs depressing but the effect on me is the total opposite. And that, this, all of this, isn't so bad at all. Life is wonderful and I am so much blessed. How can I be sad when it's been great? The National's songs bring me to that state of emotion -- euphoria.

Matt Berninger and, well, cups of happiness.

I met Jayne Yong before the concert. I was having a drink at the entrance bar and while arranging the stuff in my bag I noticed this girl who was alone too, I smiled at her when she looked my way. We started to chat. Then I found out that she is a massive fan, seriously, she have seen them perform countless times (lucky!) and taken probably hundreds of photos of them. Apparently, she's a journalist and a music photographer (www.junspace.net). 

My goodness, I don't know how to end this, I can't stop talking (tweeting, ha!) about it. I guess this hangover will stay for a while. :)
