That isn't the only time to take a picture though.
Life's experiences, places we go and the people we're with are all reasons to take pictures.
When I gave blood two months ago on September 9th, as one of my "gifts", I got a V.I.P ticket to go to the CSI: The Experience exhibit. And, I am still waiting to use that ticket. While I don't really like the original CSI show, I dearly LOVE CSI: NY and Miami. Of course, those who know me, know I LOVE NCIS more.
On November 9th, two months to the date of the blood drive, I won a Twitter package from the CSI: Experience. I got two V.I.P meet and greet passes to see CSI: NY's Gary Sinise, two experience tickets and two tickets to Gary's concert.
Needless to say I felt incredibly blessed. Of course I was nervous, excited, scared and giddy. Had it been NCIS related, I would have passed out to be honest.
So, Friday afternoon my mom and I headed to the MGM Grand Hotel/Casino and to the experience. There was a line already, but being a V.I.P, I was able to go in ahead of everyone there. I picked up my goodies and since there was about 90 minutes before Gary arrived, my mom and I took in the experience.
I am actually taking courses to get my bachelor's degree in Criminal Justice (focusing in Forensic Psychology and Homeland Security), so this was the experience of a lifetime, and to share the first one with my mom--PRICELESS. We had the same case which made it a team effort. We got to compare notes like the other CSIs and solve the case.
Due to the nature of the exhibit, I wasn't able to take pictures. If I had been able to, they would have told a great story. Not only did I have fun, but I learned from the experience. I feel as though I chose the right college major and am on the right path.
As of note, because I have my other "ticket", I will definitely be going back, probably before Christmas. And that was just the beginning of the weekend...
