Getting Geared Up for Croatia

In case you haven't heard I am going to Croatia this summer. I am super excited about it. Croatia is in Europe people OK?! http://www.croatia.hr/English/Home/Naslovna.aspxIt's a gorgeous country that has over 1,200 islands dotting it coastline. It is paradise. So before I leave in June I have made a vow to myself to lose 15 lbs! I did it last year, and I will do it again. Of course, no pain, no gain. It might be tough, but I've just been doing positive affirmations every morning when I wake up. Guiding my body, telling it to let go of any extra weight that it doesn't need, and appreciating it. I've found that this really works! It's like the whole theory about talking to plants. If you talk to a plant, give it love, and support, it will grow!

I went to Agape Spiritual Center last night( www.agapelive.com). Agape is the spiritual community that has allowed me heart to grow. It is my church, my temple, my synagogue, my sanctuary. It's hard being a 20 something in the 21st century, and I often feel totally overwhelmed. But this place has grounded me, calmed me and saved my life many times. God is good, ever present and blessing my life constantly. Dr.Wayne Dyer (www.drwaynedyer.com ) explains it like this "We are not human beings have a spiritual experience -we are spiritual beings having a human experience." I love that.

Runyon Hiking, American Idol and Gay Clubbing

What up what up peoples?! So Amanda and I went hiking up Runyon Canyon yesterday. Despite my previous comments about how is smells like poo and Axe Body spray mixed with the desperation of a million wanna be's... I DID have fun and a great work out. I didn't see Dane Cook.Which was crazy considering every time I go there I always see him running, sweaty and shirtless and NOT wearing sunglasses. Which I always thought was odd considering how bright the sun is in L.A, coupled with the fact that he is a celebrity. Anyway...Did anybody watch American Idol? I cant tell you how disappointed I was in the entire evenings performances! Is this the same show that harbored the talents of Carrie, Kelly and David?! I mean seriously people , this has been the worst season ever. I don't like any of the contestants really, no one has been consistent, and it seems like every one's performances are getting worse!Im sorry, I dont mean to be a Debbie Downer, but for real- there's Blindey McBlindster, "My Wife Just Died"Guy, the kooky blond chic who happens to be gorgeous and I actually do like the quality of her voice, but ALWAYS without fail picks the worst songs, Adam Lambert( the best one), Lil Rounds- who is great, but not inventive, Anoop - I dont get him- he's a great karaoke singer, but nothing special, hmmm, who haven't I said? OH! The 16 year old with her old soul voice. I like her but they totally busted her on her outfit and hair last night! I felt so bad for her, because that stuff hurts when your 16...shoot it would hurt me now! I hope and pray that A.I gets better! And I really have no idea who is going to get voted off this week-because they were all so bad.
After watching the show, I got talked into going to a party at H Wood. A swanky club with an industrial 1940's feel. It was in the Hollywood and Highland Center, right in back of the Kodak Theater. The thing was, that I was invited by two of my gays J* and E* ( they shall remain anonymous), and it was a gay party. Meaning this.... imagine your in a room surrounded by gorgeous hotties.They are all dressed great, smell good, have charm. If you are a guy reading this- imagine your in a room full of hot babes in bikini's with sick bodies. But the catch is, YOU ARE INVISIBLE! No guy was paying me, or Amanda any mind. Until we started talking to the cute bartenders. who were NOT gay. They got us a couple free rounds of shots. Which was welcome considering a well drink there cost $12! ....Only in Hollywood...
