i didn't even realize it, but i really like the opera. i guess i didn't realize it because i had never been to one before, but i'm taking this class right now where i have to see a ton of performances and seeing 4 operas is one of the requirements. i just got back from the crucible, and i'd really recommend it. it was superb. the only crappy part is that that's not the only opera i have to see today...and tomorrow. yep, all 4 in 2 days. i was supposed to go see hayden's creation on tuesday but i went wake boarding instead. and i have to say, i think it was a good choice. it was the first time i've ever been wake boarding and it was so much fun! i actually got up too. for like 5 seconds, but still.
this is the lake we went on (actually a dam, but who can tell the difference?). it was sooo pretty cause we went at night so the sun was setting, but the water was still like 80 degrees.
