Recent stories by and about GAinCA

A story about Ladysmith Black Mambazo

I just love these guys. I became aware of them because of Paul Simon’s Graceland album, which came out when I was a year old. My dad recorded the concert in South Africa when it was on TV, and I remember watching it with my parents when I was about three or four. Then I was lucky to see them live because they came to my school on their last tour. I think they’re so inspiring and wish I could tell them so :)

Why I admire raffi

Several reasons. He’s on kids’ side. I grew up listening to him. Some of his songs have great messages. My favorite line, and personal motto, is this: All I really need is a song in my heart and love in my family. How can you not love him?

Why I want to meet Mehmet Oz

He seems very approachable and he genuinely wants people to take responsibility for their health. His books are written in easy-to-understand language, and they help motivate me to take care of myself.

A story about James Morrison

I saw James Morrison at the Roxy a week and a half ago, and stayed for the meet and greet after. He signed my cd and agreed to take a picture with me :)

A story about Josh Groban

He came out after his show. He signed my program and wished me a happy birthday :) I’m melting just thinking about it. And he was soooooo sweet when he came out. People were thanking him for signing their programs, and he was thanking them back. So soft-spoken and so humble. It only makes me like him more.

Why I admire Rabbi Shmuley Boteach

He knows how to give advice and help people realize their mistakes without putting them down.

Why I want to meet Stacy London and Clinton Kelly

They know what they’re talkin’ about.

Why I want to meet GAinCA

She`s supportive, has a lot of great goals, and I always enjoy reading her entries!

Why I want to meet Curlychaos SoapDragon

She cheers me fairly often, and it shows how supportive she is! It’s always nice to know someone is interested in your pursuits. Thanks, Stine1 :)

Why I admire Kate Winslet

I love that she doesn’t fall for all the crap about women needing to be super skinny.
