In the Heights
So I've known about this show for awhile now... it won the Tony Award for "Best Musical" the year after Spring Awakening took home the same honor. But all I really knew about it was that it took place in the barrio and had a modern soundtrack with hip-hop/salsa/samba orchestrations. Took me two years to finally see a performance of it on TV, and it was last night on "Lopez Tonight". And I was blown away. Looks like such a fun show! I did more research and found more YouTube videos about the creation of the show, as well as watching their Tony Awards performance. I love seeing the passion and joy in the performers, and I really wish I'd been blessed with those talents of being a triple threat (sing/dance/act). If I did, boy, a career in musical theatre is what I'd want to pursue.
Anyways - here's the video of their "Lopez Tonight" performance:
STELLLLAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!
So, about two weeks ago, I traded in my trusted old Toyota Tundra truck for a new Hyundai Sonata SE. The truck wasn't dying on me quite yet, but was always having a new expensive issue whenever I brought it in for an oil change, had a lot of miles (130K) and was a killer on the MPGs. I started doing my research on 4 door sedans that had great MPG ratings and that had a good combo of price/features/looks... and I found it all in the car you see below. That's my sleek sexy Stella. :) Happy birthday to me!
