"Classic" Night, and Emotional Sunday

Alright, so Saturday night was INCREDIBLE! Some awesome high school friends and I watched MY BIG FAT GREEK WEDDING, ate Dominos, and then went to the Classic Fun Center (Formerly known as Classic Skating). We did the arcade, the nerf ball war zone thing, and lazer tag! It was an AWESOME night! It was SO good to hang out with them again!

Sunday has been crazy! I went to my parents ward (9am!) to listen to my sister sing. She did amazing! Then came home and slept some more (late night saturday). Went over to a friends house to talk, and then to another friends house to hang out for a little bit. Then home, where I watched Princess Diaries Two: Royal Engagement and ate cookie dough ice cream-YUM! But something I am embarassed to admit on here is thatI was so emotional through the movie. I was like a freakin' pregnant woman! It was quite funny. But I love that movie and got all caught up in the 'warm and fuzzies.'


Anyway, this weekend pretty much rocked my world! Great people, great laughs, great cries, GREAT FUN!

A night to add to Memories!

So tonight pretty much rocked my socks! Went over to Katie's house to hang out with the gang (Katie, Shelly, Alyssa, Alyssa, Rob, Emily) and it was exactly what the doctor ordered! We sang together, laughed together, got advice, and just had a good time! We then went to Dee's which is always fun. The ride back was absolutely hilarious! Four people, tiny truck. We had to fit in like a puzzle-yay for bucket seats! Anyway, let's just say it was very interesting and entertaining.
It's always awesome to have a group of friends that you don't need to worry about how you are acting.You can be youself. Free. I definitely needed a night like tonight. A night to add to memories :-)

Full days work

Yesterday I actually worked a full day! I was called in early and then had to stay late to finish a project. Hopefully my next paycheck will reflect nicely of my work :-) 

After work I drove to provo to see my friends senior recital. She is an amazing artist! Nicole Sheahan. Everyone should check out her music.

So here is a question....If I were to do a concert, what songs would YOU like to hear?

Thanks,
Cameron

"You have a baby....in a bar!"

So after work I got invited by my friend Rob to go to a Karaoke bar in down town SLC. P.S. There really was not a baby in the bar...however there was a prenant lady...wha?! Anyway, it was my first time in a place like that and it was so freakin' scary! But I did get up there and sing a song in a half (the computer didn't like the second half of one of them...). Anyway, I had tons of fun! Met some new people and listend to lots of loud music.

During the events of the night, I was slapped in the face with another life lesson that keeps coming back to me-never quite learned-STOP CARING WHAT OTHER PEOPLE THINK! Let loose, have fun! Most of the time, people don't care. Be the person God intended you to be, AWESOME! Insecurities and self doubt do not come from God. So don't listen to them.

That is my rant of the day. Talk to you soon,

Cameron

I am a kitty cat, and I dance dance dance, and I dance dance dance

So tonight was totally awesome! I went to dinner with Katie, Emalee, and Yolanda. We went to this awesome sushi restaurant. Yes, I said sushi! AMAZING! Afterward Katie and I went back to her place and her and her sister Alyssa showed me a hilarious video! Check it out. Hope it brings a smile to your face :-)

Sunday Thoughts

Today has been quite eventful:
Farewell in Highland, my church meetings, dinner with the fam, and lastly went to my cousins house to celebrate their birthdays....after writing this down, it doesn't seem like so much. Haha

Anway, as I was sitting on the bench listening, these are the thoughts that came into my head:

Walk to the edge of the light and into the darkness, and a new light will appear.
Faith is blind, yet can see into the eternities.
Trust in God, trust in yourself.
Walk in faith-blind, yet seeing. Scary, but right.
Take the jump and let the lord teach you to fly.

He knows your name.
He knows your heart.
Your deepest desires.
Your greatest fears.
He knows you.

"You can shape who you become, you can be more than you are today, but you will always be you."

"Remember the worth of souls is great in the sight of God."

Anyway, thought I would share that with you :-)

Talk to you soon,
Cameron

What do Tornados, 80's dancing, James Bond, Rancheritos, and wet dogs have in common....ME!

Alright, so my Saturday night was very interesting....it is going to sound crazy and completely unreal but here it is:

It started off with me controling a tornado destroying an entire town. Then seeing some old friends and going to an 80s dance. Then went to a James Bond party. Then to Rancheritos. Then to Rob's house with a very crazy wet dog. Tonight was the most random night I think I have ever had....all I can say is wow. And I'm completely exhausted from a sleepless week.

The day of no rest

I have not slept very well the past couple days...and last night I was up late thinking and decided to go for a drive. So I didn't get to bed til really late. However, Today started off awesome! Woke up to a brand new morning.
Went to work and found out that Pattie (Co-worker) was told to go home when I got there :-( So I didn't get to work with her. But the rest of work was pretty good. Once we got the main table cleared off we would get a rush of customers and it would fill right back up. So that part was not so fun, but at least I will have LOTS of things to do at work tomorrow when I go in. I just hope that it's not busy with walk-in customers...we will see.
After work my friend Rob came over to continue planning our concert-that we hope to have in July! Hopefully things will work out. We are trying to pick songs and get an order and put everything together. People don't realize how much preparation goes into planning and presenting a concert! It's nuts!
So today has definitely been a day of no rest.
Anyway, that's my 'journal' entry for the day. Hope all is well!

Thursday-The day off!

Like the title said, today was my day off! Woot! In fact it was a very good day off. I got alot done: Library, Car registered, Gym, SHAVE (yes, the beard is gone), and three loads of laundry! No to mention I had an oportunity to record some back up vocals in a small choir (7 people) with some awesome people!

Had a blast in the studio! All I can say is that I love music and singing! I really want to work on improving my skills and do alot more music stuff! When I am singing and learning I am happy and I love it! I'm not sure if tonight was a sign that singing and music is what I should go into, or if it's something that I continue to work on on the side. Either way I think it will always be a part of my life. And that is toally okay with me! Sometimes I just wish God would literally slap me in the face and tell me what to do-face to face.

Anyway, today has not been too bad. Now to finish off the day with some TV on DVD and ice cream....well, the ice cream part is already gone. Which probably means I should head back to the gym. Haha

Talk to you soon,

Cameron

Another New Start?

Once again, it's been a VERY long time since I have written anything in here. Mainly to myself (because let's be honest, no one really reads this). But in case someone else does, I apologize to you also.



Anyway, I am have realized for a while now that I need to help my life move forward. And hopefully now it has come to my attention again, I will do something about it.
First I have realized: Everyone is very in tune with their own lives. I hope to be more in tune with others lives and not care so much about 'me, me, me.'
Second: If you allow your life to stop, it will. The train will continue forward whether you are on board or not.
and Third: To quote Sandra Bullock's acceptance speech at the Golden Globes, " 'Family' doesn't necessarily mean related by blood. 'Family' are the people who have your back."

Music fills my soul....now only if I had a way to record it and put it down into something useful. My 'first' demo is done. I call it my first because if I had the money I would totally redo it-new songs, more energy, more life. However, I do not have the money and so I will work with what I have. My next step is to get new headshots and design something to send it out in. I will be sending it to local studios, producers, song writers, etc. Hopefully they will like what they hear, get me some vocal work and continue to improve my skills and become a better singer and performer.

Also, I have been going to the gym and LOVE it! .....when I decide to go. I usually try to go a couple times a week, but sometimes I talk myself out of it. But hopefully I will be getting on a better and committed schedule!

Well, that is my update as of late. I'm hoping to update this whole page and 'pimp it out.' Haha or at least make something out of it.
Talk to you soon,
Cameron
