WOW!!!! its all i can really say. i just got back from shooting my first music video in austin, TX - it was by far one of the coolest things ever!! of course i did get to...well never mind , i'll wait and let you see it before i tell you what happens - but i will tell you that Ashlee Simpson came down to be in la video and was amazing... we had an amazing crew and i felt like derek zoolander for a sec with all the hair and makeup people always touching you up..it was really really rediculously funny - we shot the video for "On the Way Down" over two days and i can't wait to see the final thing - and i've discovered that austin is a very good place for extreme walking - you guys must try extreme walking....now its not for everyone but once you go pro, you'll never walk the same@!!!!

allright, so
check this out
this past weekend was insane - so I turned 21 years of age and i , of course, went to Vegas Baby Vegas!!!!!! i went to win the rainman suite...can you dig that money?
anyways, so
here is the rundown from Vegas - I get in on thursday cause i turned 21 on Friday and at exactly 12:03, i hit up the craps table, and big daddy turned $40 into $360 - the next day, were walking through the casino to go have lunch, and my brother Marc tells me to put $50 down on black (the game is Roulette), "right now" he says - so me being the moron that i am puts it down - BOOM - gone... so i think , o.k. i got to make that back so i put $50 down on black again....BOOM - gone ... the day wasn't a lucky cause i lost all night and lost what i won the day before..
o.k. so day two....i am at the bellagio and my friend Brad(the
handball God) puts $10 on black and he wins... so my brilliant thinking is to put $100 down on black and then...... BAM - gone ...so i have to make that back so I put $200 on black again and....BAM - gone!!!!! ouch i am hurtin and i end up losing all night again and I am down $500 and its 5:00 in the morning so the trip is coming to an end and I wasn't about to leave Vegas down $500, so i go down to the casino at exactly 5:36 a.m. (it was like slow motion.....my heart was beatin all fast) - I see the roulette table and i threw down my money and yelled "$500 on black please" - the lady looked at me and just laughed - so she spins the wheel .......................................BAAAAAAAAAM - I win!!!!! i start yellin and goin nutz - it was beautiful - i wanted to throw my shirt to the lady - now i am definetly not encouraging any one to do this cause if i would of lost, i would be cryin my whole ride home!!!!!!
