Macy's Glamorama 2008

Hey yall! so sorry it has been so long since my last post. but i made this video of my most recent trip to chicago for Macy's Glamorama 2008. it was such an exciting event, with fashion and music intertwined! cyndi lauper and mc hammer were the headiners of the show and it was simply amazing. the models were beautiful and sweet, and fun to hang out with....i also threw together a little video of some of my rough footage so here it is.

singing "like a star"

we have FINALLY finished with the house and it looks so good! so now that the project is complete, i had a little downtime today.....and what better to do with free time than to sing?! so here is a video of me from earlier this afternoon, singing "like a star" by corinne bailey rae. hope you enjoy

much love

a look back...

In april, i was on a show called Rock The Cradle on MTV. it was the network's first reality singing show, and it was an amazing experience. i met a lot of great people and made many new friends (even though the show might have had you think otherwise lol). i love singing and performing, and even though i didn't win, i really did have fun! these are some pics from the show, and a little video too. the beautiful dress i am wearing in the photos is from igigi.com. i absolutely LOVE igigi, and if you're looking for something stylish you should head over and check them out! well there is still so much to do around the house, with all the renovations still taking place at my parent's house, so i have to go...here's the video

where is the time?!

time has somehow managed to speed up! my siblings start school tomorrow, and i will be starting back again soon! it's crazy to think i haven't been in school since March! that's the most amount of time i have EVER been out of school in my life.....i'm kinda excited to get back in again, since i'm almost finished anyway. i think i'm going to dedicate my next post to my time on Rock the Cradle in april. i have to gather some footage first....

Breaking Dawn....my obsession

ok so lets talk about this book. the entire twilight saga has been my obsession for the past 2 weeks. i would stay up all night and read through each book....then i had to wait from tuesday to midnight on friday for the special release party at the bookstore. yes, i really did go to the midnight release party of the book, and i stayed up all night reading it as soon as i got back to the house! unlike some, i really LOVED the book and it's ending. i felt soo complete and there was a great sense of closure. i can't believe it's over.....so i'm going to read it again! hahaha. yeah, that's how absorbed i get into my books. i would recommend all of the Twilight saga books by Stephenie Meyer. does anyone want to talk about any of the books? oh, or about the actors they have cast for the movie?? i'm not sure yet how i feel about that, but they are growing on me

more news

sorry for not writing yesterday, the time jut got away from me. some news i just received today is that i will be going to Macy's Glamorama in Minneapolis and Chicago with my dad, on August 15 and August 22. what an interesting headliner, MC Hammer and Cyndi Lauper!! it's going to be a great show, plus fashion. So if anyone is going to the event, hopefully i will see you there!!

the floors are done!

after only 5 days, our floors have been transformed from carpet to hardwood! and let me be the first to say, it looks really sexy haha!

other eventful news is that i did some tweaking to the track i made, so it's getting there but not all the way right yet. i was also sent a few tracks today, and my dad and i had a jam session, just exploring the possibilities. there was one that i loved so much, we basically wrote the song while listening to it lol. i can't wait to really do some things with it

and last night, after leaving the salsa club at midnight and driving for over an hour to get home, i met up with my family to have a studio session. we all hit the booth and recorded a little bit...i won't tell you what it's for quite yet but just know BIG things are in the works so stay tuned.

now i plan to have a chill weekend with my 2 old roommates from freshman year. i will make sure to take some pics and post them after the weekend, this will be my last blog til monday, but you can catch updates on my twitter.

much love,
A'Keiba
