Nick in the Recording Studio!

It’s been awhile so I wanted to do another blog post as sort of an update of what’s new with BSB and my own life. I’ll start with BSB first.

 

After Nick posted a dangerously sexy picture of him sun bathing (which I was extremely jealous of living in cold Illinois), he posted a picture of him in the studio recording for his solo album. It’s so good to hear he is working on some new songs and that his next solo record will be rock pop. I think that’s a good fit for him and it’ll be great. I absolutely love any music from him! It was also nice to see him in the studio with Natasha Bedingfield. I wonder if they will be doing a collaboration together because she has a great voice.

 

Sunshine never looked so good.

Another cool thing that is happening in BSB land is AJ is also working on his solo album and will be having a video shoot this Saturday in Cali where fans can be a part of the video. I really regret not going to Nick’s Tennessee video shoot for Burning Up and it would be cool to be in a music video, especially one by your favorite artist, but there’s just no way on such short notice and needing to save up for the trip. I really wish I could go and never been to California so that would be an event in itself lol. I wish everyone that is participating a great and safe time. If you would like to donate to AJ’s charity and get a t-shirt from doing so, go to http://livetogetherfoundation.org/. There’s also a spot to register your email for updates and news on how to participate in the video.
 

So there’s something possibly very exciting going on regarding BSB that I might be able to attend. Supposedly, BSB will be at a cosmetic convention in Chicago this month. I say supposedly because it seems too good to be true…unlikely, and to be honest, beneath them. They are supposed to be doing a meet and greet. The catch? No one can get in unless you have a cosmetology license. The other catch? It costs $70 to get in. I did work in the salon industry for about two years, so I was thinking of using my old paystubs as proof lol. Also, part of me thinks they would just take the $70 bucks.
 

Anyway, I’m debating if I should go all the way down there and risk being turned away and getting nothing out of it. It would be just like the time that I went to a Wisconsin school to see Nick’s Now or Never tour because the school won a radio contest and I couldn’t get in at all and didn’t even get to see Nick come out of the building. That was totally disappointing, sucked, and I practically got arrested for arguing with the cop that wouldn’t let me get in while he let everyone else go in. I can laugh at it now, but was really disappointed then.
 

But back to this possible upcoming event. I’m wondering if they will be taking pictures. If they stick with asking for cosmetology licenses, my guess is that no one will really be diehard BSB fans and would just want a picture with them for the hell of it and I think that would be pretty boring for the guys. It would also be interesting to know the backstory to this. Are they doing this because the company is paying them a lot of money or is it some sort of favor to a friend? The whole thing I find odd, but I won’t complain…unless I don’t get in :P We’ll see what I end up doing. It'll just be great to see them all again and will lift my spirits!

I got my BSB sweatshirt and BSB the Movie merch in the mail the other day so I could wear it to the event if I end up going.

My sweatshirt says it all :)

Now onto what’s new with my life. Yesterday was my mom’s birthday. She would have been 64. It was a hard day and I’m still having a very hard time dealing with it all. It just sucks, plain and simple. I’m glad that my mind goes to the good times we had instead of the bad times.

 

Nothing really new with me. Just working and trying to keep up with home stuff and continue progress on my weight loss goal (I lost 50 lbs. so far and I can’t believe it considering I’m kind of in a bad place).
 

I did end up trying online dating lol. Not having too much luck with that, but I’m not giving up just yet. There are some really, uh, “interesting” characters out there so I’m trying to be careful. A lot of liars, which sucks. What would really be ideal would be to meet a nice guy via a friend, but not really any luck there as of yet. Not totally giving up hope yet and I’m still conversing with a few guys and got one date out of it so far. We’ll see. It’s kind of like a mini adventure. If it doesn’t work out, I think I’ll just get a puppy haha! Like this one…

 

Awwwie! Hot dog!

So after looking at so many dating profiles and seeing this picture of Nick becoming a meme, I had to make my own…

 

The dating world sucks!

Hope everyone has a good weekend coming up and a lucky St. Patrick’s Day. I’ll be making some corned beef and cabbage with rye bread. Yum! We’re all Irish on St. Patty’s Day!
