A Night at the Opera · 4:46am Feb 1st, 2016
So I finally buckled down and took my girlfriend to the Seattle Opera House, as I wanted to experience it at least once.
I have to say; it really was a blast. Since modern opera houses include subtitles projected above the stage, it's not necessary to speak Italian (although it certainly wouldn't hurt) to be able to follow along with the story. There was even a complementary beer.
And for those in the know, a happy girlfriend makes a happy guy.
Now then, about the opera specifically. We saw Mozart's The Marriage of Figaro, and I have to tell you; it was pretty darn funny. It had philandering, betrayal, three weddings, and even cross-dressing. Good times were had by all. The cast was amazing and the sets, while minimalist, were just enough to set the mood.
Overall, I suggest to anyone interested in trying something new to give it a shot. Out tickets were only $25, but they were in the nosebleed section, so if you go that route I suggest opera glasses.
I stopped reading at that point.
The closest I've come to having a girlfriend is getting shot down after one sentence for having red hair.

All I can say is; you can't win if you don't play. Obviously, you can't lose either, but as long as you keep playing, there's always a chance to win.

I'm TRYING to be in the game, without having to change one of my favourite features. I'm rather fond of the colour of my hair.

Digressions aside, I'm nearly 22 and never had a girlfriend, seemingly because I have red hair
