For some reason I decided that I would be glad to take my 10 year old and her friend to the one and only Mall of America to see Ashley Tisdale...you better not be saying, "who's that" right now...and if you are, it's time to brush up on pop culture ;) I don't know why it seemed like a decent idea, but boy I couldn't have been more mistaken.
We arrived over an hour early to find a spot standing on the second level overlooking the rotunda. Well, we would've been overlooking the rotunda, but we ended up behind a bunch of loud pushy teenagers and parents. Of course my two could not see over them and were very disappointed. As we stood for over an hour (don't you dare try to sit down...apparently that is against the MOA police rules!) the lil ones got more and more frustrated at their apparently decreasing chance of actually seeing the superstar. Finally we were on verge of tears, so we decided to abandon our spot and move to the main floor where we could maybe at least walk past the stage and catch a glimpse...traffic was kept moving by very serious bloomington police officers! Luckily we heisted a spot where they had given up and let people gather...the girls could now see! Yahoo!! The best part was that it was right near a Starbucks, so I went in and got myself a caramel macchiato and avoided the crowds and the screaming masses...life WAS good!
Click her to check out the video of Ashley from the performance (disclaimer...it is not my video!)...you know you wanna ;)
I will admit that it was kind of fun to watch Alix and her friend jump around and scream...along with thousands of other pre-teens. Bit don't get me wrong..I would still pawn the job off on Steve next time!
