It was Friday, still excited from our performance yesterday on Thursday. I was ready to watch the symphony that was going to happen in a few hours. We had to walk to our transport to get to Benaroya Hall. There was supposedly a hour concert pre-talk about the symphony we were going to see that was happening in around 2 hours. To be honest, I did not pay attention at all to the pre-talk as well as most people, so it made me feel like not wanting to watch the symphony. Tired from the pre-talk, we got our tickets and headed to our seats. Previously, we sat on the bottom of the hall, and I thought we were going to sit there again, but instead, we were placed on the 3rd tier! We were so high up and I actually got a bit more excited. I was still pretty tired from the pre-talk but as soon as they started playing their first piece, I was shocked. Their selection of music was incredible, and I personally loved all the solos in the first piece, especially the cellist :). After that, I was wide awake for the whole show and enjoyed every bit of it. After that, we went to space needle and I was satisfied with that day.
