So this past weekend I went to my first ACL in Austin, Texas, and it was an absolute experience. I didn't think it be as tiring as it was but my body was definitely feeling the pain by day 2! Nevertheless, I had a wonderful time and it's such an experience to be surrounded by good music and people who appreciate music, it's like a big party with a bunch of happy people. I didn't get a picture of myself day 3, but it's all good, I also couldn't snag too many pictures of all the bands, cause everyday was a struggle of keeping my phone's battery alive for 10 hours, it made it, but my the end of my day my phone would be at 1%! So I tried to conserve my battery in case me or my girlfriends got separated. 

Some of my favorites about ACL:

- the weather was great (minus the first day)

- iced lime-a-ritas

- soft grass

- free refill water station

- sitting on the grass is acceptable (my legs were exhausted)

- dancing is completely okay (even if you dance a lil crazy)

- everyone is happy

- it's okay to be weird

- I got to see Thome York (like wow)

My favorite performances:

- Tame Impala (my super fav)

- Wilco

- Arctic Monkeys

- Silversun Pickups

- Franz Ferdinand

- The Cure

- Muse (a second fav)

- Grimes (what a cutie)

What I learned:

- HYDRATE YOURSELF (learned the hard way)

- take a little backpack

- dress comfortably + comfy shoes

- conserve your phones battery

- look at the weather before

- be prepared to be in tight crowds

- go with an open mind & be prepared to see anything & everything

{In the end, I'm so happy to be back home with my love}
