Just my life...

So apparently nothing too eventful has been going on in my life so far this month... though I have enjoyed coming up with Ralphie posts. 42 days till Christmas. I'm just sayin'...

Life here is great. I LOVE, LOVE my job. If it were at home, it would be PERFECT and I would stay with it indefinitely. But, even though I LOVE this experience and I wouldn't change it for anything, I wouldn't want to stay here on my own for more than the few more months I will be here. I have learned that being close to family is really important to me. I need those people. I also need my friends and people who know and understand me. I have loved meeting new people and everything- it's been great, but there's something comforting about people at home. People who have known you for years and years, and people who you know that you can see by just jumping in your car and meeting at the local Taco Bell for lunch. On that topic...

ASSIGNMENT: I miss the following foods. You must eat them for me.

*Bajio Grill chips and salsa and burritos (with the green sauce....waaaa)
*Taco Bell Seven Layer Burritos and Gorditas.. or ANYTHING Taco Bell. I MISS IT!
* Olive Garden anything
* BYU Creamery ice cream (Peanut Butter Cup and Raspberry and Cream Cheese flavors particularly) - Andrea Williams I put you in charge of THIS one.. since you're the freak who got me hooked on Creamery ice cream in the first place! :-)
* Costa Azul (in Provo... Costa Vida other places...) grilled chicken salad
* Wendy's Spicy Chicken Sandwich and FROSTIES... do I enjoy torturing myself like this?
* Applebee's Appetizer Sampler
* Wingers STICKY FINGERS (WAAAA!)
* Wingers Asphalt Pie
* Macaroni Grill Pasta Milano... one of my ABSOLUTE favs!!
* Good fajitas somewhere... :-)
* A J-Dawg (Provo)
* Smart Cookie (Provo)

It is a consensus among the American cast members here that the most missed fast food place is Taco Bell. I tell ya, in March when we all hit that US airport with a layover, TACO BELL Express here we come! :-) YEAH!

Anyway, like I said, all is happy. Sorry for the lack of interesting pictures. Soon I will have some sort of Thanksgiving post, and CHRISTMAS decorations will be posted as well! IN A LITTLE OVER A WEEK I CAN DECORATE FOR CHRISTMAS! I love Christmas. And Christmas music. And presents under my Christmas tree from people of far away lands...

Oh yeah, speaking of Christmas... this week I was involved in a "Special Event" at Disneyland. I did a press event where I sang a couple Christmas songs in a quartet. It was fun and there were little Chinese press people with cameras in my face for like ten minutes. It was entertaining. I need to locate some pics of that... my outfit was a joke. HA HA. :-) I looked like a really trendy Christmas soccer mom...

So anyway... that's Hong Kong. Just my life. :-)
