This week has been a pretty exciting one overall and I'm so thankful for that. I've seen some pretty interesting people all over Jersey; some I liked, some not so much. Despite the magnitude of so many different events, 3 really stick out to me in no particular order:
The first of these is the interesting weekend I experienced last Saturday (1/23/10). The night before I ended up getting an email from my singer: we had a photoshoot the next day. Somehow I managed to find my way down to Farmingdale by 11:30 (which for those of you who know me is quite a feat in itself) and I am so glad that I did. Turns out the shoot was for our upcoming show at the Stone Pony. Status Green (some good friends of ours) is having a CD release party in February and we are playing (I honestly had no idea about that one) and we needed photos for all the promo getting done for the night. Either way, this was my first photoshoot ever. Needless to say, I was really excited. The day was filled with typical railroad track photos and some pretty interesting graffiti. Here's a video documenting the day (courtesy of Lou, Status Green):

Oh. My. God. I originally was quite indifferent about this picture... until I saw it for myself. My whole world was turned upside-down, topsy-turvy, and every other possible variation of the phrase. I don't even care that the movie was Pocahontas or Fern Gully, it was just that good. I will honestly admit, my eyes teared up a bit from the beauty of the world James Cameron created. I don't even know what to say about this movie. I've never felt so satisfied after watching any movie. Ever. And that's including my favorites.
If you have the chance to, then you must come see this picture. It'd be even better if you did it in the same format that I did. IMAX-3D was just... I can't even find words to describe it. There's a very good reason why this movie has attained and earned the title of #1 Grossing Movie Worldwide (without taking into account inflation). Please. See it. You will not regret it.
The third highlight would have to simply be my Grandmother's 90th Birthday. I cannot believe we hid 30 people in her little house... with her actually inside there too!!! Hahahaha. She was so surprised to see everyone, and then started to yell at all of us for not telling her. What a woman. I count my blessings every time that I see her smiling face. Long story short, I partied with a 90 year old woman until 10 p.m. That's what I call a party.
All in all, I'd say it was a good week. =)
