Kobe

So I'm a fan of the Lakers and I was watching the game last weekend where Kobe makes the winning shot again Miami Heat. It's crazy how good he is to be falling back, one leg on the ground, and still makes it in. It was very exciting, but how can he really be that good?! Ridiculous!

If you haven't seen it, look it up on Youtube. It's amazing!

Media Knowledge

So my email is with Yahoo so I'm on that website a lot! One of my favorite things is Yahoo News! I get to know what's going on all the time with random things around the world and I feel so educated from it. I tell people random facts and stories about certain events and they always ask, "where do you find out all this information?" My reply: Yahoo News. So good! Use it!

Tis the Season to be Jolly

It's officially Christmas season and that means Christmas music and movies! I put NSYNC Christmas in my car and I love it! I was driving home from Salt Lake and I was rockin out by myself in the car and it was awesome! It brings back so many memories from my childhood with my siblings listening to it while decorating the tree and putting up lights. I love the season and all the positive media that surrounds this holiday. I mean who doesn't love everything about Christmas?!

Boo AMA's

So I was watching the American Music Awards on Sunday while doing homework and I only saw the last hour or so, but the final performance of the night was ridiculous! All I have to say is oh my! Adam Lambert's performance was so incredibly inappropriate. I can't even describe what happened because it was so sexual. It was crude and wild and so unnecessary. His dancing and lyrics and actions throughout the entire song were so explicit that I think I was more offended by this than by Janet Jackson and Justin Timberlake at the Superbowl! It was so bad. My roommate and I dropped our jaws and were completely surprised that this was aired and that people enjoy this kind of stuff! I don't know if anyone else saw it, but it was just so inappropriate in every way.

Tree of Life

So in talking about home videos in class yesterday, it reminded me of a classic home video our family made when I was little. Haha it makes me laugh just thinking about it! Our family acted out the story of "The Tree of Life" from the scriptures and man is it embarrassing! We watch it from time to time for family night and it makes us laugh so hard! Despite how humiliating it is, I am so glad our family has that video to look back on because there are so many memories that stem from those great times :)

Driving with Honey

So I'm with my best friend Josh all the time and he always listens to country stations when we're driving in the car. He introduced me to this new band named Lady Antebellum and I love them! I especially like this song called "Need You Now." It's so good and it's such a great song to belt to. It gives me the greatest feeling to listen to it because it reminds me of him and being happy. I love what music can do to you :)

Christmas Is Coming, The Goose Is Getting Fat...

My family has a tradition to go see the Christmas Carol play at the Glendale Theater every year. We have been going for 14 years now! I absolutely love it! To go along with this, I went and saw the Christmas Carol movie with my cousins. It was okay, but I was disappointed. If I was a little kid, I would have been terrified! I thought it was a very negative view of Scrooge and the whole story itself. It was dark and focused on entertainment aspects rather than the moral of the story, which I think is the best part. It had awesome detail and I was impressed with a lot of things, but I related it to the play that I have seen my whole life and it doesn't even compare. The play is lighthearted, funny and positive, and I will always be the biggest fan of that play. I look forward to seeing it this year and continuing one of my favorite traditions :)
