IMG_8487

It’s been a while, I finally went to a baseball game!!!
Yes it wasn’t Red Sox game nor an American League game, but I’ve been thirsty for a baseball action!!
I don’t know what was wrong with my camera… idk if it was sitting out in a cold for a long time or wth.. It wasn’t able to focus well at all and I wasn’t able to take any =(

Anywho, the game was fun. Cubs scored from early on and Ryan Dempster Pitcthed real well. Complete shutout game.
Also sometimes I wonder, when Pirates will ever be a good team. They’ve been a bad team as long as I can remember.
Oh well, Final score was 6:0 and I’m going again this friday, so hopefully I’ll be able to snap some good pictures.

What a blast I had. I anticipated to go to U2 concert for past many years but never had any luck to attend one. Finally I got a chance to witness one of my favorite band performing. I got the tickets on the day from my friend, I couldn’t find anybody who wanted to go until almost last minute lol. I actually dragged Eunhye with me to prove how great U2 is. Anywho we sat in 300 level seats so it wasn’t any close to the stage but it was fantastic eperience. Oh yeah, also it was the first time I ever sat in the soldier field. One day i’ll go to bears game for sure lol.

I loved how they mixed up old and new and yes Bono is very vocal about what he believes and I love how he is, so many things he said it didn’t bug me at all.
Lighting was fantastic, i loved their screen that stretches and somehow lights from behind shows up and etc. Edge played different guitar every single song, Adam Clayton was rock solid on bass and loved his sparkling bass lol, and man.. Larry Mullen, Jr. seems like he never get tired nor miss his beats even singing!

It was great 3 hrs of entertainment, I’d love to go see them again.
(yes, it already been 3 weeks.. so i forgot a lot-)
