THE HOST May 20, 2008

Filed under: Uncategorized — aageddes @ 8:24 pm

So, I went to the Stephenie Meyer book signing on Saturday. I got there about noon and she spoke for about 15 minutes around 1pm, and then I didn’t get my book signed until 3:45. It was a long day with no one to share it with. I did re-read my favorite parts of “The Host” though. It is such a good book. I really enjoyed it! It has all the elements of the Twilight series that keep you reading wrapped up into one. It was suspenseful, romantic, adventurous (am I having a hard time spelling today or what?!) and funny. I ABSOULUTELY LOVED IT! I highly recommend it to anyone who wants a good book to get lost in. Then you have to tell me: Ian or Jared. I’ll let you know who I like after I hear back from a few people.

Just a little update on Showtime Utah…It went really well. Not as big of a crowd as we had hoped for on an opening night, but still all right. I had Five of my most loyal fans in the audience and I am always grateful for their support as I am anyone who will take the time to come see me perform. (Thanks especially Mom, Dad, Grandma Faddis, Aaron, and Addie!) It is a fun little place and I hope it really takes off. It is just a new little theater starting out in pleasant grove, but the week after I sang, they had Pianist Marvin Goldstein play. He is pretty amazing. It looks like they are trying to really get good talent for their theater, and it was fun to be a part of it.

Anyway, I was tagged forever ago on my friend’s blog for a fun survey. I will have to fill it out tomorrow…I have to go now and teach voice lessons. It was the Spring Showcase for my students last night and they all did awesome! I was so proud of each of them and they all did REALLY well! Two thumbs up!

Ok, so I really am shutting up now. Have a good one! -Aimee

 

Loner May 1, 2008

So, judging by my blog stats and the lack of comments, it looks like I will be going alone to the one and only Stephenie Meyer. I am still so excited to go, but also sad that I will not get to share it with anyone. -Happy birthday to me.

Moving on to happier stories…Being a loner isn’t so bad in some cases. Especially when you are singing on stage like I will be doing on Friday May 2nd. I have been asked to perform for the Grand Opening of Showtime Utah. A variety theater for family entertainment. The theater is just starting up and their focus is on fun family oriented entertainment for all ages. They have several different shows ranging from a cowboy dinner theater to stand up comics, to singers and piano players. I will be singing for about 30-40 minutes some of my favorite broadway and country songs. Anyone who would like to come is welcome. This would make a great date night and would be the perfect after dinner activity. Details below.
