Red Carpet wrap up

So this past weekend was the Grammys and it was the last of 3 weekends in a row of Awards Shows!

I am SO glad these are over-- I had fun but I am ready for a little break. 

I love music as much as the next person-- but I wasn't sure if I was really that excited to go to the Grammys etc.

BUT--  it was really fun! I worked the Saturday before and sat in on a few sound checks. On the day of the show, they did a complete run-thru from the top with staging, costumes, lights etc. and I sat off stage to watch all the performers. 

That is the cool thing about this show I think--they actually perform at the awards shows. Nobody acts AT the Oscars--maybe they should! :)

This is a picture of my friend Cynthia and I before the show::

Again my position was at the 360 cam::

Last year, my dad and I came into L.A. on February 7th and it was the weekend of the Grammys-- we took a picture right here on the red carpet last year so I took a new one this year. Unfortunately he wasn't with me this time :(

Being at the 360 cam during the Red Carpet show is fun because you see everyone walk by and you can just observe. There were some CRAZY dresses at the Grammys so its fun to just watch the madness. This is a quick pic I took of Beyonce and I liked her dress::

So now I am done with awards until Oscars in March which I am super excited about.

On a different note, and let me just preface, I know this is silly and unimportant in the grand scheme of things. I am not trying to become a person who is obsessed with the artificiality of Hollywoood. I get that there is more to life. I promise. This is where I am working so I feel the need to talk about what I am up to on the blog.  

That being said-- last week I worked a press junket for "Valentine's Day", the movie. 

There are a lot of people I like in this movie, well because if you've seen the previews or the posters, EVERYONE IS IN THIS MOVIE. It is ridiculous actually. Only a few stars came to this junket--two of them were Jennifer Garner and Julia Roberts. I saw both of them... and can I just say I geeked out  A LOT. Especially Julia Roberts. If you knew me between the years of 1996-2005 you may know that I collected her movies and basically wanted to be her a little bit..

She said hi to me when she walked in and I think I just stared like an idiot. 

Jennifer Garner is another one of my favorites from ALIAS so basically it was a cool day. 

That is enough of that for now I just had to share. 

OK-- well my dad is actually visiting in March to do a check out trip for the mission trip this summer and even though its only for a day I am so excited! Valerie comes in April and that is going to be wonderful as well! Now I just need to get myself to TX sometime soon!!

Have a good week!
