MASCHA VAN TONGEREN

Last week my parents came to town. Yeah yeah, I know, they were just in town a couple of months ago… but this is the other set of parents. I happen to be such a lucky person who actually has TWO sets of parents. [divorce does that to kids] . Anyway. This time my dad and stepmother are here. IN MY HOUSE! All I want to say is that my love for dad has bee tested big time! I mean I am doing all I can to accommodate both in the best possible way… what can I say, I am just a wonderful daughter!

Ha!

Came Friday, I had tickets to go see Santi White [SantoGold] play @ the Fillmore in NYC and Trevor Andrew aka Trouble opened. Of course S. was coming with. I love her! She is just so much fun, never a dull moment! For some reason I didn’t care what I’d looked like / wore that night, I just wanted… no make that NEEDED a drink after putting up with the folks for two days. So drinks there were… quite a few.

Long story short:

The show was wicked. The drinks were good. I smoked way too many cigarettes. We ended up @ Santo’s Party House and I had a huge make out sesh [m.o.s.]. I went home and my face was kind of sore. I felt like a teenager and S. said that I looked ‘cute’ [aka stupid] ! Ha! She’s such a good friend hehe

It was a fun night. Should def. consider doing that more often.

So I was watching TV last night [that doesn't happen very often] and it was commercial time again.. and all of a sudden I hear SantoGold! In a Budweiser Lime commercial! Sooooo cool! Good for Santi! I hope she made a good buck on that! She rocks, I love her music, I know I am repeating myself haha.

• My major crush URIJAH FABER is fighting Mike Brown on September 10th. Location: Hardrock Seminole in Florida! I am sooooo excited! I HAVE to go to Florida and see the fight live with my girls! Hopefully there will be an afterparty @ one of the clubs there and I can get to meet him and just tell him that he’s hot! hahaha! [I sound like a stalker huh?]

• I have a presentation for TalentGuide next week… I need to prepare myself!

• Tomorrow Sarah and I will be going to see the Flobots @ Bowery BallRoom… am pretty stoked!

lyrics L.E.S. Artistes by Santogold

My latest craze: Santogold! Love her music. I came across her because I love her boyfriend’s Trevor Andrew a.k.a “Trouble Andrew” music and I read an interview where he was talking about Santi, so I checked her out and she is rad! I love her style (what style??) and the lyrics to this particular song are wicked!
