Hey guys! Hope things are good with you. I’m writing to you from the hair and make-up room backstage on tour. I have to multitask today because it’s been very busy day! We are in Indianapolis right now. The buses didn’t pull into the venue until 5 a.m., so I was pretty tired when we got here. Anyway, after waking up we had some breakfast on the bus, and I had all these interviews to do from my phone. Now I’m in the hair and make-up room at the venue with the rest of the High School Musical cast. We’re all in here a little bit earlier than usual because we’re heading to the Children’s Hospital to go visit some kids and hang out there for a little bit. From there we’ll come straight back to the venue and put on a show for Indianapolis!

Only two more days until I have some of that world famous Chicago pizza! Haha. I’m still really looking forward to that. But the tour is definitely winding down -- there is only a week left! We’ll end with a big bash though… two Los Angeles dates and Vegas! So the end of the tour won’t feel sad -- it will be a big party. I have to admit though it actually is going to feel kind of weird to just be at home and not have to run to the tour bus or sleep in a bunk, ha! I think it’s going to feel just as busy though… I’m excited to end the tour to release my album, and that’s basically what I’ll be doing for a while before we start getting ready for High School Musical 2 (already!!!!). Anyway… I know that Blondie (the dog) is ready to go home. She’s a little princess and wants to be back in her own bed in her own house, haha, anything for Blondie!

I also can’t believe that February is almost here already! I am seeing Valentine's Day stuff everywhere already! It’s crazy! The great thing about it though is there are tons of candy on sale, so I’ve been stocking up. I’ll definitely have to pick up some Valentine's Day cards pretty soon to give to some special people. Have you picked your Valentine yet? Last year, I got this crazy huge bouquet of flowers (it was as big as me!!) from a “secret admirer”… I still to this day have no idea who it was -- was it you? Haha. Do you have any secret admirer stories of your own? We’ll see if the secret admirer comes back around this year and finally reveals himself!!

Oh yeah!! Lookout for the music video for “Be Good To Me” it’s going to air on Disney Channel very, very soon!!! So hopefully you guys see it and like it. We shot it while out here on the tour, so maybe you are in it!!! ;)

Anyway, I’m still in the hair and make-up room -- laptop on my lap. It gets pretty loud in here because we’re all in here at once, and everyone is listening to music, talking, or playing on his or her computer; it's craziness!! Never a dull moment back here. So I’m going to go now and finish up here and get going with the day. I’ll check in with you guys next week when I’ll have news on taping my second music video for “He Said, She Said”!! Talk to you soon!
