Yup, that's right, I'm finally 21 today.
Last night, my buddy Simon, his girlfriend and Pancho headed out to a Farin Urlaub concert. For the uneducated, Farin Urlaub is the singer from Die Ärzte, the best German rock band ever. The catchphrase that the Ärzte use to describe themselves is in fact "The best band in the world." So there you have it, they are just that good. Although we came a bit late, I managed to wiggle my way up to the front.
It was sweaty, dark, crowded, and my glasses fell off on several occasions. Note to self: Do not wear glasses to concerts. Not only did I drop my glasses with Sophie up on my shoulders, but they were also covered in a thick, drippy layer of sweat, ensuring that I saw very little that was further than 3 meters in front of me. Luckily, we were in the second row.
On our way back to the StuStadt, I got probably around 21 birthday kisses from my neighbors seeing how it was after midnight. Sucks that I have a midterm tomorrow, or else this is wrapping up to be quite a birthday.

Posted by: Dan K at May 28, 2005 12:46 AMaw man sucks (for me) that you can't be here to celebrate. I also lack the address required to send a card but you have way more important things to do then read a crappy card from me.
21 means more in the states so you'll have to celebrate once you get back. BTW, I'm a little drunk right now.
