13 February 2008 - “Hello everyone!  Well another month has passed since I moved out here to the west coast.

“I love L.A. I love being here - it’s very much a fun city. I like the people. There's a lot to do although I am focused on my task and I try not to let the big city distract me.

“You have Hollywood and the stars. I have been to a celebrity basketball game and it’s been a lot of fun. I saw all the ‘A’ list celebrities you can name there playing basketball. I really can’t tell you the location because it was a kind of a private event. Sorry about that!

“There's a lot of places to go shopping and there’s a big club scene, stuff like that.  In Houston you don’t get that and, of course, in Gainesville, where I went to university, you don’t have that because it’s a college town.

“I like to get out to relax and get away from track and field on the weekend, just relaxing with friends stuff like that.
