You Shine Through

Sunday at Sundance

So much for my good intention to write everyday. I arrived FINALLY and got set up on Thursday night. On Friday it was very very slow and I was beginning to think I had made a mistake by coming. I didn’t even want to blog. I was in bed early and set my intention to have Saturday be amazing.

I walked in the door Saturday morning and people were lined up waiting for me. I began prepping several people who were either being interviewed or who were interviewing. Unfortunately I didnt catch who everybody was but I did end up doing Beth from the REAL WORLD who just started her own show. I have a picture I will upload later. I saw Miss America, Cassandra, an actress in the Quentin Terrantino movie, and an interviewer from Hollywood tv.

Shortly after lunch the promoter of my event ran in and said pack up you are being permantly moved to the Getty Image Studio. I packed up and got my stuff together as quickly as I could. When I walked in it was pandomonium and I wasnt allowed to turn on my makeup lights. How was I supposed to see to do makeup? Helen Mirren was walking out as I was walking in.

I set up in the bathroom and just when I finished setting up Woody Harrelson came barelling in the door! I stepped out so he could use the facilities and when I went back in he left the seat up! Disgusting!  When he was leaving the lounge I said to him, Woody, you could haave put the seat down!” He had a good laugh but I was serious. Randy Quaid was supposed to come in but he didnt so I hung out and went back to the Green Pavilion and did makeup.  Collective Soul (rockband from Atlanta) came through our suite and it was so great to get a chance to finally meet them. What a great group of guys!

After we were through we wentb to a happening bar with live music and I hung out with Dean from Collective Souland his friend paul from www.sneakysunday.com. VERY VERY FUN

I was starving at this point and we went to the cool pizza place and met more FUN people Nick and Steven from the Collective Coalition and we went to the party at TAO where 50 cent was performing. It was wild and crazy and not one more person could be packed in. Front and Center of the stage was Paris Hilton. I will be saying a lot more about my experience of watching this scene when I have more time.

Today I am going back to the Getty Image Studio and I will make sure to write more tomorrow and try to upload my pictures. I am also getting to meet Jen fom Mythbuster Beauty. I cant wait!!
