You’ll see anyone at Disney

00000181

It’s hard to imagine, but it happens a lot, especially at Disney World. Me and Alex had just gotten off the ride, “Expedition Everest” and had one more fast pass to use at 5:30pm. Approaching the line to get in, Alex asked, “Where do you want to sit this time? We sat front row twice already.” Coming up on our third and final ride of Everest, I chose the backseat this time for that extra whiplash effect roller coasters give you. Getting closer to the line, all was going well, no worries and we both were just happy-go-lucky. Approaching the loading director who tells you where to stand to load in the coaster, we asked him for back-row, we had no idea what was about to happen. Walking up, we both noticed a nicely dressed black gentleman with a little boy. We were standing literally next to them both at the gate that was loading on the next coaster after the two individuals in front of us. It didn’t dawn on me at first when Alex and I were standing there, it’s one of the moments it just doesn’t click, but the seating assistant was uncontrollably smiling. As the gentlemen and his boy got on the tram, we moved up in line and the seating assistant said, “Do you guys have any idea who that was standing in front of you? “We both responded very confused, who?” She said, “That was Akon and his son!” The look on both Al and mine’s face was that of utter shock, dismay and whoa! After we unloaded from the ride, we saw Akon again and his bodyguard take advantage of his VIP celeb status and get right back on the ride multiple times with his son. I guess it all boils down to one thing, I am glad I didn’t make a fool of myself to one of my favorite R&B performers in the Top 40 Billboard Charts today. If I had recognized him first before the Disney staff cued us in, I would have been more tempted to say hello or something silly. I am glad I didn’t, because he was there with his little boy enjoying the day and getting away from the stress of being a famous performer. I must admit, I would have loved to have told him that I played his music every Friday night on Crossroads on BounceRadio.net, but I am glad things happened for a reason. It was amazing looking back on it, how cool it was seeing the star just strolling around and enjoying Disney with his son. It was definitely something worth blogging.

New Look

So, I felt it was time that I updated my site here to give a more fresh updated look. The inspirations behind this theme and design came from my love for radio, which is represented by the headphones, and then my default profile of my and Alexandra. The colors where just a last minute choice, but for the most part is pleasing to the eyes. Comments welcome!

In other news, say hello to my newest addiction in life, Guitar Hero World Tour for Wii.

The box the set came in.

We’re actually getting really good! For easy mode that is. Alex has stepped it up to Medium, but I can’t seem to find the courage to brave that risk just yet, it’s too hard!!!

wPlaying Guitar Hero III World Tour for Wii
When we start playing, we loose all track of time, so the next thing you know, 3 hours have passed, our hands are swore from playing so hard, and we’re completely exhausted. True signs of video game addiction.

Also, got a new haircut the other day. I like it!
