Tales of Hollywood: The Beginning...

Alas, my posts from Hollywood begin! So what do I have to say on this subject? Two words:

Holy Crap!!!

So, just in my first full day in here, guess who I happened to spot at Target while buying junk for my apartment? Donald Faison, a.k.a. "Scrubs" Turk Turkelton and Harold Perrineau, a.k.a Michael "The Black Guy" from "Lost". Yes, it is true, celebrities shop at my favorite sort-of-discount store. I don't think I have ever been so excited in my whole life. And of course, I immediately called my brother, since they're from his two favorite t.v. shows. I'm pretty sure he about had an aneurysm from all of the mind blow going on with this story.

Turk was very tall, not so black, and wearing camouflaged sweat pants. I guess that's why I had such a hard time seeing him. (I know, bad joke) Michael was also, pretty disguised in a skull cap and was much blacker than Turk. It took me, three plus walk by's before I even realized why he looked familiar. And on that last walk by it hit me, "HOLY CRAP! THAT'S BLACK GUY FROM LOST". I know, quite the, well, blatant statement, but I couldn't think of his name, so cut me some slack.

Personally, I believe it was a gift from God to help me get over my nerves, cause they were definitely replaced with excitement after that.

I absolutely cannot wait for the rest of my time here!

It's A Bitter Sweet Symphony

It's so crazy how things change. Just six months ago, I was planning on going to BYU this fall and couldn't wait to leave this town because I felt I had no friends. Six months later, I'm about to move to Los Angeles to go to AMDA and can't stand the thought of leaving because I have such amazing friends.

I'm trying to pretend that Tuesday isn't coming. There's just so much I still want to do. I feel like a ticking time bomb. I have so many people that I still want to spend time with and so many things that I still want to accomplish but there just isn't enough time. And on top of that, I haven't even begun to pack yet.

Now, don't get me wrong, I'm super excited for my future in Los Angeles, but it's still quite bitter sweet. I just wish I could take everyone with me. I know everything will be alright though, and I won't be gone forever. I guess the Lord is just trying to make me appreciate what I have for once.

So, here's to the future!
