A Wedding Celebration!

So today a good friend of mine got married! Congrats Becky and Jerry! It was a BEAUTIFUL ceremony and dinner. Everything was great! Here are some of my 'ametuer' pictures and some videos of myself and Marci singing-we had a blast!

What a Adventurous week! :-D

This week has been SO fantastic! It has flown by so quickly I can't even believe it. An adventure! Here is the scoop:

Sunday: Church, Dinner with the family and grandparents, ad then my Great Grandmothers viewing. It was time to see you go. No more suffering. We love you and will miss you greatly.

Monday: Work, then a music practice for a wedding that is coming up

Tuesday: Work, and then a good friend of mine (Shelly the amazing) came over to help fix my hair, eat dinner, and talk.  :-)

Wednesday: I took off of work to help a friend out and ended up doing an errand/house work day with some friend time that night.

Thursdy: Picked up my parents and grandparents from the airport (took my great grandma to St. Louis to be buried). When we arrived at my grandparents house they surprised me and told me that they were going to pay for voice lessons! I have not bee able to take voice in months because of timing and money. And I am so excited to start back up! I love my grandparents! Later in the day, I went with my friend (Katie) and her grandmother (Joyce) to a doctors appointment, went to Red Lobster for the first time, and did my first mini house concert! Afterwards I went to Dees to have icecream and talk with Katie. Amazing day!

Friday: Got up at 7am to be ready to go at 8am. Drove with Katie to pick up her grandmother (Joyce) at her uncles house. Went to breakfast at Mimi's Cafe-yum! And then we all drove up to Idaho Falls together! Such a great ride! Joyce told stories from her life, I sang, we all talked and laughed the entire way. We arrived in Idaho around 2:30pm and Katie and I were supposed to come back on a shuttle that night. However we missed the shuttle and ended up spending the night. So we cleaned up the house a little bit, went to get dinner from Applebees, picked up the dog from the pet hotel. Then back home to eat and make plans for our return home-taxi will pick us up at 3am, shuttle leaves at 4:10am, arrive at the salt lake city airport at 8am, work at 10am. After plans were made, Katie and I went to the store to pick up some essentials (tooth brush/paste, deodorant, etc.). We got back and I went downstairs to play the baby grand built in the early 1900s! Absolutely fantastic! Joyce and Katie soon joined me for some music time. Katie and I were afraid that if we went to sleep we woud miss the taxi, so we decided to not go to bed....

Saturday: Katie and I decided to watch Little Women-great movie! Then decided to shower, and get things ready for our departure.Joyce woke up to send us off. We hugged, tried not to cry, and said our goodbyes with our next visit planned. I'm so grateful for that trip and will treasure it always. Joyce is now another grandmother to me and I absolutely adore and love her. I become closer and fell more deeply in love with Katie. Katie and I (mostly Katie) entertained the taxi and shuttle drivers! After we got home I had to go to work-on ZERO sleep! Let's just say it makes for an interesting work day. Katie and I had made plans for that evening with some friends. I got home from work and fell asleep. I was pretty muh dead. They called and text, and even came to my house! But I was gone....

Sunday: Homecoming of a high school friend, my own sacrament meeting, music practice for the upcoming wedding, and then fun with Katie and Shelly. I finally saw THE NOTEBOOK! Absolutely fantastic movie!!! Love radiated from the movie and I felt it. Not only the romantic kind of love, but love for friends, family, and a complete sense of gratitude for what they all have done for me. Love you guys!

What a week. What an adventure! I hope this week brings much more...including gym time because I definitely need it! I am also going to try to write more frequently because this weekly updates are so incredibly long!

Love,
Cameron :-)

Week Upddate! and I need a miracle...

So this week has been crazy!

Monday: Work, gym, friends.

Tuesday: Doctors appointment, work, gym, FRIENDS! People were saying and doing such funny things that I was laughing so hard I was bright red and crying! LOL "Three Pills Please" :-)

Wednesday: Work, then had a music practice for a wedding that I am singing for in in a couple weeks. I was weary of trying to sing it, but Marci and I have come up with something that is amazing! I hope they like it :-)
Also, I got an amazing offer to record a cd wth Marvin Goldstien who would arrange, produce, and play, pitch to record companies, and help me land some gigs. But making a cd costs so much money! Usually they range from 30-50,000 dollars! But this would have only cost $20,000. But I don't know even know where I would find that much money! So, sadly I had to turn it down. :'-(

Thursday: MY DAY OFF! Some of my coworkers took m out to Sushi! It was incredible! I think I'm addicted....ran errands, did laundry, hung out with two seperate friends! It worked out perfectly time wise. Alyssa and I went and got dinner from an okay Chinese place we have never tried. And then wathced a very disturbing movie. It was nuts! I can't believe people would act that way. Yes it was a horror movie based off a true story.

Friday: Work, and then to Provo to a farewell party or a friend that is going on a mission! I'm excited to see people I have not seen in months!

Saturday: Work, and then I am going to see ALICE IN WONDERLAND with two awesome friends! Can't wait!!!

Also, another thing that has been on my mind lately is school. I am seriously thinking about music. But the only program that I want in Utah is at BYU. I have have visited many times and it is the only campus that has felt 'right.' But Media music program only accepts 10 people a year! I would have to wait until January to audition (which gives me time to learn the music things I need to know to get in, plus get my GPA up). But I'm very conflicted about going to BYU. I feel like I'm meant to be there, but not sure how I could survive. I'm going to need a miracle.

"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
