I definitely feel that we've been falling into winter. it seems that Omaha plays little tricks on you. One day cold, and then next so gorgeous that you almost want to stay outside all day. Well ALMOST. Life for me is always speeding up and slowing down. I don’t know which one I like better! This past weekend the music scene in Omaha was “bumping” you could say. I got to see two of my favorite singers at The Slowdown, a music/bar/restaurant venue just 4 blocks from the east edge of campus. The two artists that I watched this weekend were Matt Nathanson and Ingrid Michaelson. I love the slowdown because besides the crowds of interesting people it draws, it also creates a kind of low key intimate setting with the musicians. No screaming teens here! I think that most of the crowd was college aged and above, which make it nice that my toes were still intact when the night was over. Also no silly girls that push and shove, which was a nice reprieve from other venues. I know I’ve said it before but music scene in Omaha is actually really great. Compared to the concerts that we get in Hawaii. Omaha is like heaven. I mean, just about a month ago Creighton brought in Third Eye Blind and that concert was great I heard! I was unable to make it, but I think my friends had enough fun for all of us. Campus at Creighton is looking a little dull these days without all the beautiful flowers but I see that they have begun to decorate the campus for it’s annual Christmas lighting. I love when the whole campus is lit with beautiful glowing Christmas light! I cant wait for the holidays. With thanksgiving coming up- get a nice 4 day weekend. Hmmm. I’m so excited!
