lykke li please.

so monday morning I went to buy tickets to the lykke li show that was at the belly up that night. I was so distressed when I learned that they had sold out earlier that morning but don't worry-I put an ad up on craigslist and within an hour arranged to pick up two tickets from a girl downtown. I have to say that I had such a good time at that show that it was probably my favorite night of this year so far. The band that played before lykke li -Afternoons- were incredible. I don't think I've ever heard anything like them and I loved it. I can't even explain how amazing lykke li was. She had such an incredible stage presence-she was so passionate about each song she was singing. She also sang a couple of hip hop songs which was so so adorable and badass. She's definitely one of my favorite artists.





bottom line....LOVE LOVE LOVE lykke li.

Reagan and I baked some devil's food cupcakes last night and took them to work today to decorate them. I discovered that decorating cupcakes is one of my favorite things to do....aaaand I'm not to bad at it. I decided to make cupcake versions of my friend Michelle and I....

brand new pair of rollerskates...

It's been a while since I've blogged so I thought I'd return with the subject of roller skates. I have been wanting roller skates forever and I think I'm finally going to invest in some this month. I think my life would be a lot better with roller skates. Everyone else should get some too. Just imagine, every thursday night we could have a roller disco...how rad would that be?

Two more hours of work and I'm off to play with my Lindsay love. I am so so happy that we both are back living in SD and continuing are amazing adventures. Hopefully Paul will join us too because we make quite the trio. I have been craving sushi so bad lately so perhaps we can add that into tonight's agenda??

Hayden is quite the artist...

I went to my baby cousin's blessing on sunday all the way up in LA. It was really fun getting to play with all of my little cousins and hanging out with my family but my favorite part of the day was during church...my little cousin Hayden drew a portrait of me and it was amazing. So, according to Hayden, this is what I look like when I wear my hoop earrings....

Ms. Aimee Porter's 21st

Last night I went out with my friend Aimee for her birthday. I met the group for dinner-the group consisted of a wonderful assortment of ladies. Then we all headed downtown to On Broadway to dance the night away. We started off in the hip hop room and it was fun but full of creepers. We finally headed up to the house room and that was a little more my style. Steve Aoki was playing a set and I had a lot of fun dancing-I'm definitely a fan of that man now. The time came to get out of there so we walked to the cars. We had an interesting drive home- but it definitely made the night more memorable. All in all I had a pretty good time last night.

goodbye salt lake...

So I recently moved back to San Diego and had to leave the lovely Salt Lake City behind for the time being....my last weekend there was so lovely though. Saturday night some friends came over to say bye and I'm so grateful for everyone that was able to make it. Sunday we went to breakfast at Park Cafe and it was nothing but amazing. It was a lovely day so we took a stroll through the park and made our way home so I could start packing the car up. After packing Mo ordered the most enormous pizza ever and we ate and ate and watched some television. Later that night I met some interesting people at the W and learned of the garbage warrior. Monday morning as I was trying to get the last of everything Peg made us some breakfast and then I made my way over to Dewon's to say bye. Dewon made me the most amazing lunch, we said our goodbyes and I was off to Moab.

The drive to Moab was the worst-first of all I lost 20 bones who knows where before I even left SLC-second of all I got pulled over for speeding-the speed went from 60 to 40 and the cop was sitting right by the 40 sign and got me before I had a chance to slow down-oh but it gets better. As I'm searching for my license to give the cop I realize that my purse that it's in along with my money and credit card is no where to be found in my car-oh wait, I left it at the gas station. Luckily the cop was cool and didn't make a fuss of it and felt bad that I had to back track so he kindly gave me my ticket and let me go on my way. Drove about a half hour back to find the cute old lady keeping my purse safe and sound in the register.

Finally made it to Moab and my beautiful Kylie James. We drove around the canyon and visited Dave the first day. Seeing Dave was so fun-he's one of the funniest souls I've had the pleasure of knowing. My second day with Kylie was spent driving to Grand Junction and walking in and out of stores-then we did eachother's hair that night. Kylie now has blonde hair and my ends are reddish orange. My hair actually reminds me of the Red Knee tarantula.


see what I mean???

Anyways my time in Moab was up and I headed home with absolutely no problems. The drive from Moab to St George was absolutely incredible. When I was getting gas in Barstow I had a van full of marines staring at me for like 5 minutes and then finally the old man in the front tried to hit on me- I just smiled and laughed and then quickly got back into my car. Being home has been great but I miss Salt Lake and my life there...but I'm going back in a couple weeks to get my bed so that will be a nice little visit. Well I'm off to watch more chevy chase clips on youtube...

This is Eagle Canyon-one of the beautiful places I stopped as I was driving through the canyon's after Moab..
