December, 2004 - Seasons Greetings

Well I finally finished my cross Canada promotional tour! It was a fast paced few weeks. I traveled to many cities that I have never been to and met so many great people. It was a blast. When I look back over the last 6 months I cannot believe all of the fantastic experiences that I have had or how much I have learned and although it has been a lot of hard work it has also been incredibly fun. On the day before I left to come home, we shot my music video. Once again this was a new experience for me which was extremely interesting and… somewhat exhausting. We started the process at 8:00 am and wound it up at 4:30 am. I left to catch my flight at 5:00 am. I am really excited to see the finished product and hopefully, it will start airing early in the New Year. Presently, I am at home spending time with my friends and family. My mom thinks more time is spent with friends than family but that will soon change with all of the family dinners she has planned with the more than 45 relatives. I am actually really excited to see everyone especially all of the cheek pinching aunts. Like do they ever stop?? I have a cousin arriving from China and one coming from England so that will be very cool. For all those concerned, I am finding time to rest and relax. This has been great for me but my sisters are not impressed as they are doing my share of the housework. Although I am very happy to be home, I am also super excited about my upcoming concert tour. Thanks to all of you, most of the concerts are already sold out. You guys continually blow me away with your amazing support. I want to thank all of you for the cards, gifts, e-mails and letters. I only wish I had the time to respond to each of you individually. I wish you all a Christmas and New Year filled with love, laughter, health and great friendship. Please take time to reflect on the reason that we have this time to get together.
