A Monday with David Archuleta

I never knew since the beginning of the day that a personality by the name of David Archuleta was coming to the Polynesian Cultural Center (PCC). It was actually my day off from work and my roommate was the one who informed me that he was actually in the center and eating his dinner at Hale Aloha. He even described to me how he looks like. Haha.. he is actually shorter than I am and a lot thinner than the image we see on tv.

I am not really a diehard fun of him but I like the kind of songs that he sings and in fact, we go to the same church. The melodies and lyrics of his pieces are just simply full of emotions and truth. I don’t know if he is the one writing his songs because I notice a touch of dogma in it.

David is really popular that even old people knows him. A lot of the customers and even employees took pictures with him. Good thing there was no security or else everyone wouldn’t have the opportunity to get near. I actually was able to have a picture with him. Take a look! Click here.

HAWAII

Aloha! I’m here in sunny Hawaii, and it’s so nice here. I sang at the Pro Bowl yesterday, and that was way cool. Enrique Iglesias and Ciara sang during the halftime, and that was fun to watch because we got to watch from the field. I didn’t get a chance to talk to Ciara, but Enrique was a cool guy.

He’s tall though! I didn’t realize how tall he was. He’s 6 ft. 2 in. haha. But anyway, the day before the Pro Bowl performance I sang at Ohana Day where people can watch the players practice. I sang A Little Too Not Over You, and it went well.

Today we’re going to try and look around the island and be tourists haha. It’s so beautiful here, and I forgot how much I miss hot humid weather. It’s been a long time since I haven’t worn a scarf and jacket, because even last year during spring and summer we were always inside cold studios or arenas.

Oh you know what’s funny is while I was in the LAX airport for my layover, I ran into Cook and his gang. We were in the same gate area haha. Only he was headed to Florida, and I was leaving Florida.

So before we went to Hawaii, I was in Florida doing promo.

What was shocking is how cold it was there! I didn’t think I’d have to wear a jacket and scarf there, but it felt like Utah weather at some points. It was really fun traveling around though, and I got to see my family when we were in Central Florida. I also got to visit a Children’s Hospital in Daytona Beach, that they called Speediatrics haha.

It was really neat. But I’ll be heading back to Florida after Hawaii for the Disney thing this week, so I’m excited! I’ve been trying to not adjust to Hawaiian time, because I’m already in the Florida time zone mode lol. But I can’t wait for the Disney thing!

This Saturday they showed the iCarly episode on Nickelodeon, so for those of you who watched it I hope you had fun! I had so much fun hanging with Miranda. Don’t forget to watch this weekend too! I’ll be performing A Little Too Not Over You this Saturday on Nickelodeon, so fun stuff. haha.

All right, so before I close here, I just wanted to talk about the Grammy Awards! They were on the same day as the Pro Bowl, so I was keeping a little too busy to be able to watch it. But I had friends that were keeping me updated on what was going on haha.

First off, I’d just like to congratulate all the winners and their successes. I was so excited to hear Adele won 2 Grammys for Best New Artist and Best Female Pop Vocal Performance! She is truly amazing, and I’m so happy that she has gotten some more recognition for the quality of her music. It’s sooo good.

Well anyway, I better head out and get started with seeing more of Hawaii. I’ll talk to you guys later and let you know how things went this week!

Song for the day: Right As Rain – Adele

Sorry for having Adele again so soon, but this song rocks and she had a big night last night haha. Brooke White was actually the person who introduced this song to me a while back, and inspired my love for Adele’s stuff haha. Go Brooke!! If you haven’t heard Chasing Pavements by Adele yet though, you should check that out too.
