An Update?

Well it's been a little while since I last posted and I just feel like talking. Just got back from vacation Saturday night. Then went straight to a concert. Awesome. Vacation was another cruise to Alaska. This time we took Princess. Compared to Celebrity, well...shows and food are a million times better on Celebrity, but there is soooo much more going on around the ship on Princess which was a huge plus for me. I hate being bored. Plus I love games. Like pictionary and random trivia and dance classes, and we (me and my new friends) played a bunch of taboo. Awesome. The crew is pretty awesome on both. Though I will be honest and say that the food service crews are kinda lame or Princess. But the assistant cruise directors and such are pretty fun. Some interesting experiences with them were had. We also went ziplining in Juneau and horseback riding in Skagway. Those were cool.

So for entertainment, one night there was this comedian/singer/guitarist/world champion juggler which was impressive. My friends and I sat in the front row so he gave us all a free box of Raisin Bran cereal. Those small boxes. I asked him to sign mine after. He also did this one trip where he needed a higher ceiling, and the venue was a really low ceiling, so after messing up a couple times I told him there was an opening right in front of me. He made fun of me and said it was too small. Then he tried and it worked. WHAT NOW! He thanked me. Anyways, after wards my friends and I were talking to him. He said my brother was his favorite audience member (it's not exactly hard to make him laugh really hard) and he told me I had really pretty eyes. Just now, he added me on facebook with a message saying "It's the girl with pretty eyes :) Nice meeting you and your friends :)" I feel pretty cool right about now.

Anyway, got back Saturday and went to a concert. My friend Tiffany had free tickets to the Cute Is What We Aim For Concert so she gave me one. That was awesome of her. At the show it went Powerspace, DangerRadio, Ace Enders and Million Different People, then Cute. Powerspace has an AMAZING guitar player. He blew my mind with his solos. The girls went crazy for DangerRadio which was awkward. Ace Enders was great. I've never heard of them but I really liked their music. I was the only one dancing. Right in front of the bass player. He gave me his pick at the end. He reached down and all these hands started swarming mine which didn't help cuz I was exactly the tallest one there. But he kept on reaching and stuck that pick right down into my hand and waited til my hand was wrapped around his and the pick before he let go. So awesome. I love when people do stuff like that. After the show I talked to him for a bit and asked him to sign my pick. He was nice. I liked it. Then I got a picture with the lead singer and one of the guitarists in Powerspace. They were really nice. I walked up and told Alec (singer) that I really like the show and he just gave me a huge hug. Later I told Max (guitar) that I was really blown away by his playing. He was very grateful. "No really, that you so much! That is so kind! I'm so glad you like it!" Great night.

So nowadays, I don't work until Wednesday cuz the manager wasn't sure when I got back. Even though I marked the days I would be gone on the calendar months ago. Whatever, not my problem. I quite like the extended break. I start school soon and have only signed up for 2 classes. I should probably figure out what the hell else I'm taking. I've also been neglecting my music recording and my clothing company. I really need to step it up. I'm trying to find more jobs. One is just setting up kiosks twice a month. Like putting up posters. Sweet job and good pay. Love it. Want it. Need it.

Oh, if you have any tshirt ideas or designs that you'd like made I'm sure we could make out a sweet deal. Like make them under my label and split profits. I'm down for that. As long as I like your ideas. Don't be offended if I don't. They either suck or just aren't the right style for the company. Not a big deal. If you're reading this you know how to contact me so please do. Also, I'm up for some music collabs as well. Hit me up for that one also.

In some exciting news, I am currently planning my next concert weekend adventure. Again to Salt Lake, but with a possible stop in Pocatello? I do hope so. 3 days 2 nights 2 concerts 8 bands. Good idea!

have good days
later
