Hey Guata’s Top 5 Moments of 2008

December 30, 2008

Its been a good year errrbody, so here are my top 5 moment of 2008!

#5. DRUNK PERSON THEATER: After a HARD night of partying, my roommates and I decide to go to eat at Chipotle. When we arrived it’s still too early for it to be open. So while we wait Adam, still drunk, decides to start the most personal conversation with a random bus driver. Here we attempt to recreate the magic this moment was

If you wanna hear a snippet of the REAL conversation check out my roommates blog. He recorded some of it at Hey Tumbullivan

#4 JAPANESE HEY GUATA: This one involves my sleepaholic roommate Adam again. Just watch the video and wait till the end. I’m so glad this impromptu moment was caught on tape.


#3 TIE: FINDING OUT I WAS GOING TO MEET OLIVIA MUNN/TALKING ON THE PHONE WITH HER

So I get a call from my producer telling me to sit down…and then I blacked out. The scream of joy was so loud my roommates both came out of the house cuz they thought I had been run over on the street. Here is a picture courtesy of Blogullivan just minutes after I found out.

Then the infamous call where I ran out of a classroom for Olivia. So glad my co-host didn’t pick up her phone cuz Olivia called her first.

#2 NIGHTCAP FINALE EPISODE: OLIVIA MUNN I bet you thought this was my top moment of 2008. But after giving it a lot of thought I knew it wasn’t. It really was the capstone of my year, and I give a million thanks to Olivia for being so nice. I was truly blessed, it was an amazing show. From repelling down from the ceiling, to my awkward pie or pop segment. I’m sad to see co-host and friend Cori leave though, she was awesome on the show and I can’t wait to hear about all the great things that she’ll do in the future. But now here is our interview with O-Munn.

TODAY DEC. 17th 2008 = DEADLINE FOR MEETiNG OLIVIA MUNN AND BEING QUASI-FAMOUS

December 18, 2008

Today was supposed to be the deadline for getting quasi-famous enough in order meet Olivia Munn. I have decide I met both those goals. Here is why:

1. I fucking met Olivia Munn.
2. I met her on TV while Hosting “Nightcap”.
3. Combining my Interview, Olivia’s Nightcap Journey video, and my blog I’ve been exposed to over 15,000 people online. (that’s not counting Nightcap viewers.)
4. I have inspired a “frienemy YouTube channel” named Hey Dominica, about a fellow AOTS fan who wants to hang out with Kevin Pereira (Olivia’s Co-Host)
5. I did it all without getting a restraining order.

I think this qualifies as quasi-famous in my book.

Here are some quotes from Hey Olivia readers about Nightcap & me:

“Wow that was an amazing interview. Geeze, never knew Guata would go all out on that, seems like an awesome show.” -Rwhiting
“That was really cool. Those college kids were surprisingly really good. I was very impressed.” – Mike V
“SO Guata’s the Ed Mcmahon? Hey Guata OHHHHHHHHHH!” – Daniel
“That was awesome. I didn’t know guatemalians could be so funny.” – No Need For Names Honey
“Nice interview. I think all three of you did a good job. thumbs up.” -Palem
“This interview was a lot better than the one with spike.” -Uabua
“That was much better than your appearance on Spike Fersten’s show.” -Eyes_For_Hands
“The video was 10 minutes long but it went by in a snap, which means you were funny, and they host a good show” -Nick G.

I know I sorted through some of the bad comments, but you gotta know when to stop listening to the peeps sippin’ on the hateorade.

Thanks to all of you who supported me on my quest!
