New Vlog!
David Archuleta is in Nashville writing with Joy Williams, and he checked in with fans to let them know that! He also pitched “Dreamgirls” for Syesha Mercado and talks about her considerable talent. Bravo for Archie.

“Listen” from Dreamgirls
Check out Syesha Mercado belting. Oh, man, how much do I wish Syesha was a contestant on AI THIS year? So much.

Monday Morning Philosophy 101
David was philosophizing this morning, contemplating the great unknowable and unplannable nature of life, celebrating the guiding light in his life that allows him to move forward one step at a time.

Davidarchuleta.com: The Badges System
On David’s new official website, apparently the thing to have is a special icon beside your name indicating that you, in fact, are the best fan, or at least one who spends the most amount of time and downloads the most stuff to the stuff:
So this badge system operates on points that work something like this:
Commenting on a member’s page = 2pts
Commenting on a forum thread = 5pts
Creating a new forum thread = 25 pts
Here are thumbnails of a few of the badges:
And the point of all of this? I haven’t figure that out yet. Status? Bragging rights? Encouragement of spam? Maybe I’m being too harsh. Go forth and become an ArchMaster!

Poll Results: Who Should David Duet With? (Errr…With Whom Should David Duet?)
The fans have spoken:
I voted for Natasha. I would love to hear her powerful, crackly, edgy, range-tastic voice with David’s.

Cost of College Tuition in Utah
So…
A group of fans put their heads together to brainstorm a gift for David. This gift should be something meaningful, something perpetual…
How about a scholarship?! Better yet, a scholarship for a Murray High School senior (David’s alma mater) who is planning a life pursuing a dream in music?
That’s how this was born:
So why donate?
It’s expensive to go to college. Check out the academic year tuition for a few of the major 4-year universities in Utah:
Brigham Young: $4290 (LDS); $8580 (non-LDS)
University of Utah: $5744
Utah State University: $4826
Consider helping a dream for music come true! Even a donation of $5 helps!

Archuleta Avenue Charity Cookbook Project
Don’t forget this tasty project by our friends at Archuleta Avenue!
Send me your favorite recipe. It can be whatever you want to send…appetizers, soups, salads, etc… Just please label it accordingly so that I will know where to put it in the book. Please be sure that all ingredients/measurements are included as well. You may also send a picture if you like. I will accept recipes until around the middle of March.
Please send to archuletaavenue@aol.com.
Once all of the recipes have been submitted, we will work on putting the book together and hopefully have it ready to be sold by Mother’s Day!
This calls for a Chef David picture, don’t you think?
