What a weekend!!!

I seriously had the best weekend ever!!

On Saturday, I shot my hosting reel in Beverly Hills! I just had the best time ever. There were four of us who went out with our hosting teacher and a camera man and we shot a bunch of footage all over the Beverly Hills area!

We went to a jewelry store (Alan Friedman Jewelry) where I got to wear a $115,000 ring! Ahhh...I have never worn something that cost that much money! Shew! But it was so fun getting to wear the ring for my shoot and talk about the jewelry that is used to make the stars sparkle on the red carpet! So much fun!

We also went to the "eyebrow king" in Beverly Hills - Damone Roberts! We got to interview him and check out the salon which was amazing! He has done the eyebrows of every star from Beyonce to Channing Tatum! I seriously had the best time ever! :)

Then today...my friends and I decided to make a day of it in Beverly Hills! We met my roommate who works at MGM for lunch at a place named Jack n Jill's! So yummy!! Then we hung out at Bouchon - a French restaurant which is across from the Montage Hotel. It was gorgeous. We were sitting next to a beautiful courtyard and just enjoying the day!

Get this...there were a bunch of kids playing in the courtyard while we were sitting there, and two of the boys were Victoria and David Beckham's sons! So crazy...I can even spot celeb's kids now haha! Cruz and Romeo Beckham were just playing around and having fun with their friends. Then later that night, Dianna Agron passed by to eat at the restaurant. I swear I see that girl everywhere! She's been at two restaurants where I've been and then I see her when I'm at work all the time! Small world if I do say so myself!

Overall...it was a great weekend! I feel truly blessed to be in such a fun and entertaining place surrounded by great friends!

Hope y'all had a great weekend!! :)

Missin my momma!

What a fun trip! My momma came to visit LA and we had a blast!

We toured Paramount, ate at some yummy restaurants and shopped A LOT! I loved every minute of it!

That's the nice thing about parents...they always help you experience things you might not get to when you're 23 years old and don't have a lot of money. Things like nice restaurants haha! We definitely tried out a few new places. My favorites had to be Ago in West Hollywood for an Italian dinner and Blu Jam Cafe for brunch! If you're ever in LA...these are the places to go. P.S...Tim Tebow was spotted eating at Blu Jam, so who wouldn't want to eat there at least once?! Hands down, the best french toast I've ever eaten!

But overall...I loved having my mom here to experience the city and see what my life is like out here. When she left, it definitely made me miss everything at home though. Good thing I'll be back in June!

This week has been really great though! I had my final hosting class on Tuesday night. So sad! I'm definitely going to miss seeing all my new friends every Tuesday night. There was so much talent in that class...I just know I'll be seeing them on TV one day soon. Good times!

And at work...I saw Colin Egglesfield from Something Borrowed! Now talk about a good lookin man haha. And I talked to LL Cool J and then Nathan Fillion from Castle! They were both on the lot shooting for their shows, and they were so friendly! How refreshing to meet such nice actors. It makes me respect them that much more.

So as you can see...it's been a pretty eventful week!

Now off to see the midnight showing of HUNGER GAMES!!! Who's going?? Ahhhh so excited!

Throwback to high school TV shows!

So for those of you who know me...you probably know that One Tree Hill is my favorite show!

I used to lie to my friends (you know who you are) so I could stay in and watch One Tree Hill instead of going out with them at college. Sad I know. I have a problem haha!

Last night we went out in Hollywood, and lo and behold Stephen Colletti was there! Yes...he dates back to my high school days when I loved watching Laguna Beach and the love triangle between him, Lauren Conrad and Kristen Cavallari. Good times! After Laguna Beach, he ended up as Chase on One Tree Hill. How exciting right! He was hanging out with friends and another actress from the show, Chelsea Kane.

I even walked up to him and asked if I could put my water on his table haha! Nice guy!

I know I say it a lot...but you really just never know who you're going to run into! The people I used to want to be friends with in high school because of their TV show are now people I run into randomly!

Instead of six degrees of separation, it's like one or two out here in Hollywood! Crazy!

Uplifting day!

What a great day!

Today, I got to give a tour to a high school group filled with drama and film students from California. And what a treat! I cannot explain how great it feels to talk with people who are excited and positive about life!

All of the students had such positive personalities and were so thankful for the field trip to Paramount. They were so interactive and really made me feel so blessed to have my job. Not only that, their enthusiasm was contagious! All around, they had big dreams and goals for the future...just like the rest of us.

It made me think about how high school and college really influenced me! It reminded me of the relationships you form that will change and impact you for the rest of your life. What you learn from your teachers and friends really does shape you and your dreams. What a fun time in life that transforms you into the person you're meant to be in the future!

And how awesome that my devotional today corresponded to all of the thoughts that have been going through my mind today! It was about pursuing certain goals in your life and how if that fits into God's plan for you, then he will help you reach it. Otherwise, no need to worry...because if what you desire right now isn't the right path for you, then those dreams will gradually change over time. No matter what, everything will fall into place - everything happens for a reason...so that one day we can all fulfill our purpose in life!

Good stuff is happening!

Shew...it's been a while since I've had time to update my blog!

But lots of fun things are happening!

Today I worked super early in the morning to help give out Footloose copies to Paramount employees. Guess who my first conversation was with today?? Yep...Jane Lynch! How crazy! She was so nice and happy at 7am haha. You always appreciate it when celebs are nice, but then I realized why shouldn't they be? People and faith and hope helped them get where they are today, so it shouldn't even be a question as to how they should act. But there have been a lot of fun celeb sightings for sure. You just never know who you'll run into! It definitely keeps my job fun!

And I love having other pages to hang out with all the time! We have a big group, so it feels like school all over again. Good times!

My hosting class is going great too! Tonight, we work on branding and talk shows! Should be a good one...so I'll keep you posted. I definitely know it's my passion.

Get ready CMT...I'm coming for ya! :)

Hope y'all have a great week!
