Cause oh baby it's CHRISTMAS all over again

Hmmm....I decided to write again. Life after London is feeling pretty dull so finding something worthy of writing about is hard. All I do is school work school work sleep eat sleep eat DIE! But I figured if I want to enjoy my life as much as I did in England. I have to enjoy the little moments. So.
First, I've met some more famous people. 2 Christmas Concerts. David Archuleta's and Kurt Bestor's.
David Archuleta:









And a really cool drummer named Eric Valentine:












Hooray for claims to fame! Hahaha.
Anywho. Moving on. So the stories behind these encounters are kind of fun. Both in SLC in the same building in the same room on very different nights. I attended the David Archuleta concert with my roommate whose Dad was performing with David so we got good seats(about the 4th row back) and backstage passes. Woohoo!! What I love about David is not his look or his amazing voice or his being Mormon or famous even. I love that after American Idol and everything else he's done. He's still just a kid. He isn't self centered or rude or demeaning. He's your average American 18 (now 19) year old boy. It made me happy. Fame hasn't destroyed everyone's souls. =)
Meeting the drummer was at my roommates Dad's concert. The drummer was playing there and since my roommate performed i this concert our FHE group went back stage to see her and her Dad. I decided "what the heck, I'll never meet this guy again" so I got a picture with him. He had THE MOST AWESOME drum solo by the way. he was blindfolded. It was sweet.
Well my New Years resolution is to do exciting stuff so I can write about it without turning my blog into a bedtime story. zzz.
Alright well I'm off like a dirty shirt.

How I Met My Mother

     In order for you to fully understand my story I need to start 26 years ago in Tacoma, Washington. Born into the world was a little brown starfish with more hair than cousin It. She was cute. She was 4 pounds. She was me.      I won't go in to too much detail in order to respect my mother's privacy, but she wasn't at a place in her life where she could take care of me so I went into foster care. My birth mother came to a couple visits to see me, but shortly after, she disappeared. Two years later this awesome couple adopted me and a family was born. My parents were open with me about my adoption from Day 1. I never knew anything about my birth mother except what I could find on my birth certificate: name, birth date, etc.      Despite being happy, there was always a missing piece. I just wanted to KNOW. I wanted to know where I came from. I wanted to know what happened. I wanted to meet the person whose toes I inherited! That...

Termites and Midnights and Night Lights

Hi! It has been too long. I've been...well I could say busy but I'd be lying. Actually I've been lazy and boring and that means watching lots of episodes of F R I E N D S , eating mac and cheese for breakfast, and taking naps in the sun . No one wants to hear about that. But I did do some fun things =) 1) B I O L O G Y I decided to take Biology this summer. Now, for those who don't know, Math and Science are the names of those two little demons in Disney's Hercules movie...at least in my mind. So Biology is my LAST general core class at BYU. Most people take it their 1st semester of college and I'm taking it my senior year. I've been dreading it. Well, so far it has been surprisingly enjoyable. We read a book called Voo doo Sci ence (I know, I know) and it was really cool. Now we are reading a book about decisions and it has guys blowing up missiles and fire figh ters in action. It rocks! Don't worry, it gets better. Today we played with TERMITES ...

Just another day in Paradise...

So, a couple of us wanted to go to The National Gallery and Trafalgar Square but we took one wrong turn and ended up in a sketchy part of town. There was graffiti everywhere and it was interesting. We ended up walking past an airport and eating in a train station. Haha. It was way fun, let me tell you. The next photo and story is Cambridge! We went there on Wednesday. The picture is of Verulamium a little place we stopped where they had a cool Roman mosaic and some old things like ancient jewelry and such. So fun! That's Elizabeth, Kate and me in the picture. Cambridge didn't excite me much so there are no pictures of it. Plus, my camera battery died. But we did go to an Evensong there and it was so amazing! The last picture is THE BYU LONDON CENTRE!!! Beautiful, right? I kknow! I feel so blessed to live in this lovely place. It's right aroound the corner from Notting Hill too! ever hear dof Portobello road? It's a walk and a skip away!
