On August 7th, I accompanied my freshman roommates (and now roommate and suitemate) to a Coldplay concert at the United Center in Chicago.

Morgan and her friend Rachel made us a great glowing sign that said “We’re Glowing In The Dark.” Morgan also made us beautiful t-shirts with ironed on letters. Together, Morgan and Rachel spelled Coldplay, and Shannon and I both had MX – Mylo Xyloto on our shirts! We also added some glow paint so we would glow in the black lights.
