HEY IF ANYONE IS IN REGINA, SK. THIS FRIDAY NIGHT I AM RECOMMENDING YOU GO SEE SERENA RYDER @ THE EXCHANGE! SHE IS AMAZING…(I PERSONALLY PUT HER AND REGINA SPEKTOR IN THE SAME CATEGORY) AND SHE IS CHUMS WITH RANDY BACHMAN…IT DOESN’T GET BETTER THAN THAT! SO PLEASE PLEASE GO AND SUPPORT HER…SHE IS CANADIAN!

k, so i’ve never been a huge fam of beyonce…not for any particular reason…just never to excited about her. but i did watch oprah when she was on it and sang her latest song from the dream girls soundtrack…and i was blown away…talk about chills up my spine! so here is a link…check it out!
(p.s. how do i put a you tube video on my blog?)
alright so last night was the infamous…

AND it was absolutely amazing!!!
oklahoma vs boise state
“It’ll go down as one of the best college football games in history. The Fiesta Bowl had it all, trickery, drama, failure, surprises and a win by the underdog.”
“one of the greatest bowl games of all-time in the Fiesta Bowl on FOX. Boise State downed Oklahoma in OT, 43-42, in one of the wildest finishes ever.”
the champions…

the last quarter plus OT were played like you’d see in a movie…absolutely incredible with the last play being a run for a 2-point conversion, which would put boise up by one…and they did it…

WATCH THE OVERTIME
and not only did johnson race to the end zone for the game-winning, 2-point conversion, but he also proposed to his girlfriend on the field in the frenzied aftermath.

anyways, it was exciting for dad and i last night at 12:00 am…and now we are wondering who is going to make a movie about it first, especially with the proposal…lame lame!

so where were you when boise state beat oklahoma?

it’ll be a question your children ask you!
