Testing Something New!
Knicks Beat the Jazz
While in NYC, I had the chance to attend a Knicks game. (That is actually something I wanted to do while I lived here, but I just never had the chance.) You know Mormons...they feel like they have to root for the Jazz just because they are from Utah. A whole group of YSA's got together and went to the game. While they were rooting for the Jazz, I was rooting for the Knicks...well, actually I was rooting for Maleak Rose (# 31 on the Knicks). He's a former Spur and I like to believe a Spur at heart even today. It was a pretty exciting game...the Knicks won by one at the buzzer. Needless to say there were lots of disappointed Mormons around me! I'm of course in green and my friends Karen and Kristan are on either side of me. My former roommate Lindsay is above with her new roommate Caroline. I had a blast and have other pictures on my camera to post. This picture was actually take by Caroline nad she emailed it to me. I'll post again soon!

Main Street Bethlehem
Burnett, Texas turns part of their town into a Bethlehem. It was amazing and my pictures don't do it the justice that it deserves. It was truly amazing. The major problem was that my batteries went dead right as I got there. I had to take pictures with my cellphone. That's why they aren't go great...sorry!

LAX Should be renamed Celebrity Central Airport
I spent just one day in California. I landed on Monday at the John Wayne Airport (in Orange County) and flew out of LAX on Tuesday evening. While I was there I saw 3 celebrities - some more popular than others. While I was waiting in the "self-service" line for American Airlines, I turned around only to see the many stan
ding directly behind me was...
BOBBY FLAY! For those of you who don't know him... he is a major chef on the food network. He has also been on a few other shows. He had sunglasses on, but I recognized him right away. I didn't say anything too him, because shortly after I recognized him, so did another man. He made a big deal about it and you could tell that Bobby was a little bugged. He was very polite, but you could just tell he wanted to be left alone. That was celebrity #1.
Celebrity #2 was much more exciting. I walked up the stairs, (after my encounter with Celebrity #1) and was standing in the security line. While waiting to go through security, I looked to my right and in the line right next to me was...
WENTWORTH MILLER. Some of you might be asking...who is that. Well, I will tell you. I have recently become addicted to the television show Prison Break. Well, Wentworth is the main character. He is very hot in person. I would have said something to him had we gotten through security together, but I was behind this really slow family of 5. Needless to say, he got through much quicker than I did. I did get to drowl over him for awhile though.
From Security I went to my gate. My coworker called me and we had a quick work call. I was standing near my gate when a man passed me. I recognized him as someone famous, but I couldn't place him. I actually told my co-worker that someone famous had walked by me. When she asked who, I said I couldn't remember, but I knew he played a bad guy in a movie. I told her that it would come to me...well it did! Last night at about 3 am, I woke-up and remembered where he was from...He can be seen in the movie Ghost! It was...
I actually had to look him up to see that his name is Tony Goldwyn.
Well, those were my brushes with celebrities. I felt like I was back in NYC. I guess maybe I should take up residence at LAX and then I would see a lot more! :)

Just another brush with fame!
Monday I was traveling from San Antonio to California...Orange County to be exact! While I was at the Dallas/Fort Worth Airport I saw Deion Sanders. (He played in the NFL.) Joel was a little disappointed that I didn't get his autograph. He was however walking into the bathroom. I didn't think it would be a good idea to bother him while he was in that pursuit! :)
