Music Monday

Got caught up in writing last week and forgot Music Monday! This week I'm embracing my inner teen and spotlighting a couple of catchy pop songs that I always have to sing along to. First, a current hit...

"Give Your Heart a Break" by Demi Lovato
And a blast from the past! I was obsessed with this song when I was in sixth grade.
"Only In My Dreams" by Debbie Gibson

Olympic-Sized Giveaway!

Do you have Olympic fever? Here are a few symptoms I've experienced:
1. Social media withdrawals from avoiding spoilers on Facebook and Twitter2. Dragging in the morning after staying up late to watch every last minute of TV coverage3. Screaming "Go! Go! Go!" at the TV during swim races4. Having anxiety attacks while watching male gymnasts on the pommel horse
I can't get enough of the Games. I found myself watching water polo the other day and was fascinated. The Trampoline event? You bet I wan...

Music Monday

After my vacation break last week, Music Monday is back! When I was at An Evening On Ice last weekend, I heard a rendition of "Love the Way You Lie" I wasn't familiar with since I don't watch American Idol . I like it much more than the original by Rihanna!

"Love the Way You Lie" by Colton Dixon
My other song of the week is an old one from the Great Expectations soundtrack. There are lots of great songs on that album (including a few that were used in one of my favorite skating programs ever). I'd...

An Evening On Ice/Warner Bros Studio Tour

Sorry it's taken me a few days to write up my thoughts on An Evening On Ice! I spent the last few days exploring the Los Angeles area, catching up with friends and enjoying the beautiful weather. One of my favorite parts of the trip was the Warner Bros. Studio Tour I took on Tuesday morning. I've included a little summary and my photos from the tour below, but first a quick report on the show!

Braden Overett acted as the emcee of the show, and he has such a fun personality that he's perfect as...

An Evening on Ice

Yesterday I attended An Evening On Ice, a wonderful show to benefit the US Athletic Foundation. The show was held at the Toyota Sports Center in El Segundo, California and featured an all-star cast of National, World, and Olympic medalists.

I'll post a detailed report of the performances later, but I wanted to post my photos and videos first!

Music Monday

Another Monday, another set of tunes! This week there are a couple of very different songs on my repeat playlist:

"Overcome" by Better Than EzraI bought this CD after Hurricane Katrina when I was exiled in Houston, and I listened to it constantly, enjoying the connection to home (Better Than Ezra is a local band). I still love so many of the songs from the CD, and I'm hooked on this one again.
"The Crisis" by Ennio Morricone (from the soundtrack to The Legend of 1900)I first heard this song whe...
