We'd even put money on it (not our tithing money though) that Mormons aren't the only faith to say this prayer...lol. <br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgVGiGrzBjj16K0RJsRNTgQgq2U7fJIBJ2tOXPqY0_E01Z0zdpoN0N4MDsluF8_i0V1B50lAe35oICeMV5qCQU5RGtDiN7_gdV-OqYFXAnm2TLeunhW5zpehtLDtl7iBaVaylJTlHnXrXU/s1600/8.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgVGiGrzBjj16K0RJsRNTgQgq2U7fJIBJ2tOXPqY0_E01Z0zdpoN0N4MDsluF8_i0V1B50lAe35oICeMV5qCQU5RGtDiN7_gdV-OqYFXAnm2TLeunhW5zpehtLDtl7iBaVaylJTlHnXrXU/s400/8.JPG" width="400" /></a></div><br />This could mean one of two things:<br /><br />1. That there is waaaaayyyyy to much junk food at church functions.<br /><br /> or<br /><br /> 2.

It's a time where we receive inspiration and instruction, and the words of Conference left us Sistas feeling edified and ready to do work on ourselves and service for others.<br /><br /><table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="float: left; margin-right: 1em; text-align: left;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhs8-9OhEzym6dvq_v5pXYrJ0-cJELzIUjv9gZxF3UlCqE2-Tb4cSNXBg6Q7sgBoSfo1scNd8YBOz_Z5OfScwbpP4oxkS4NZt6I7CaMnx-n6kPHUA_00JetyDP-avPIxK8L-qAeA1henVM/s1600/photo.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" height="200" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhs8-9OhEzym6dvq_v5pXYrJ0-cJELzIUjv9gZxF3UlCqE2-Tb4cSNXBg6Q7sgBoSfo1scNd8YBOz_Z5OfScwbpP4oxkS4NZt6I7CaMnx-n6kPHUA_00JetyDP-avPIxK8L-qAeA1henVM/s200/photo.JPG" width="200" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Sista Catherine, Sista Laurel, <br />Nkoyo Iyamba & Sista Beehive</td></tr></tbody></table>It was a busy weekend as well! First we stopped by KSL Newsradio to be interviewed by <a href="http://www.facebook.com/pages/Nkoyo-Iyamba-KSL/266243413413353" target="_blank">Nkoyo Iyamba</a>, host of Cultural Connections. We brought along Sista Catherine (We can't live without her!) and had a good ole time talkin' about faith, what <i>ain't</i> our testimonies and keepin' it real. Just in case ya'll don't know it Sista Iyamba is one of the pretty faces you see singing for the Lord in Motab! We tried to get her to give us the dirt on <a href="http://www.sistasinzion.com/2010/01/alex-boye-wants-jesus-to-walk-with-him.html" target="_blank">Alex Boye</a>, but she said what happens in Motab stays in Motab. They must have that Mormon Mafia code of silence or something. You can listen to the interview <a href="http://pandora.bonnint.net/audio/2012_04_01_cultural_connections.mp3" target="_blank">here</a>.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><a href="http://twitter.com/sistasinzion" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img src="http://www.searchenginegenie.com/images/twitter17.jpg" title="By: searchenginegenie.com" /></a>Of Course we listened to Conference and even made our way down to the Conference Center. We live tweeted Conference which was all kinds of fabulous, helping the LDS Church out as ebonical translators in an unofficial capacity...you're welcome <a href="http://www.thomassmonson.org/" target="_blank">President Monson</a>. Party with the Sistas on twitter <a href="http://twitter.com/sistasinzion" target="_blank">@sistasinzion</a>!<br /><br /><table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="float: left; margin-right: 1em; text-align: left;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhc8DSd-2kfF6e7FqdCnD5HjpnU8vBsIbc1_jHIFz2lEXOJgGAZ97kQMjBB6iVKF4XLDHpJ-YrLepOPyyLOfYWGpN6iELsYn3XG86DWQK3EtGopyqV1NLU-R8H9PFOKIKJ978Oj_nxlUKc/s1600/photo+%25281%2529.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" height="200" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhc8DSd-2kfF6e7FqdCnD5HjpnU8vBsIbc1_jHIFz2lEXOJgGAZ97kQMjBB6iVKF4XLDHpJ-YrLepOPyyLOfYWGpN6iELsYn3XG86DWQK3EtGopyqV1NLU-R8H9PFOKIKJ978Oj_nxlUKc/s200/photo+%25281%2529.JPG" width="200" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Sista Laurel, Jabari Parker,<br />Sista Beehive & Christian Parker</td></tr></tbody></table>If you were keepin' your Sabbath holy with the Sistas then you heard us on Sistas in Zion Radio with Christian and Jabari Parker. It was amazing spending time with such exemplary young men of faith. The pair showed what brotherhood is really all about. If you missed the interview you can catch it <a href="http://www.sistasinzion.com/2012/04/listen-live-to-sistas-in-zion-radio.html" target="_blank">here</a>. And true to their word Christian and Jabari stopped by one of our callers, 4 year old Tyson's home, to meet him today. We'll post pics and Tyson's response soon!<br /><br />It was a jammed packed weekend, but we had a lot of fun and most importantly felt the Spirit. Thankfully Conference happens twice a year,  we can't wait until October! (See more pics from our weekend on <a href="http://facebook.com/sistasinzion" target="_blank">Facebook</a>.)<br /><br />God is Good,<br />Sista Beehive & Sista Laurel<br /><br />

Growing up on the South Side of Chicago, he overcame many obstacles in making his way to serving a full-time LDS mission in Atlanta, Georgia.

He is being recruited by all of the top college basketball programs throughout the country. He is an active member of the Hyde Park Ward in Chicago, attending early-morning Seminary regularly.

With over 150,000 views in its first week, Tylan’s <a href="http://youtu.be/GhvcauQCEVs" target="_blank">Mormon on Drugs</a> YouTube video seems on its way to viral victory. While medicated, Tylan supplies viewers with a plethora of opinions and laughs. He’s a fan of Limbaugh and Justin Beiber. Likes Mitt Romney, dislikes President Obama, but not because he’s black. He cries almost as much as Glen Beck. Has a wee bit of a caffeine addiction, and yes he’s a <a href="http://mormon.org/" target="_blank">Mormon</a>.

Here goes:  </span></span><br /><br /><b>“Why am I crying?”</b><br />Since I don’t remember any of my thought process, I only remember arriving back at my house after the operation. I’m just assuming my subconscious was wondering why I was crying, for no reason too.

When I got home from Christmas break my dad and I challenged each other to stay away from soda and caffeine. I guess I had a headache and just really wanted a normal diet coke with caffeine. <br /><br /><b><span style="color: #666666;">Sista Laurel</span></b>: And you specifically prefer Coke over Pepsi?<br /><br /><b><span style="color: #666666;">Tylan</span></b>: Yeah, absolutely Diet Coke all the way.<br /><br /><b><span style="color: #666666;">Sista Beehive</span></b>: I’m assuming you’re a BYU student.<br /><br /><b><span style="color: #666666;">Tylan</span></b>: Yeah.<br /><br /><b><span style="color: #666666;">Sista Beehive</span></b>: So can you get any caffeine on campus?<br /><br /><b><span style="color: #666666;">Tylan</span></b>: Nope, not on campus, but I even think there’s some kind of booth set up right off campus where they sell caffeinated beverages for the students. But I mean you can drink them, your fine, they just don’t participate in selling them. I guess to prevent students from becoming dependant on substances.<br /><br /><b><span style="color: #666666;">Sista Beehive</span></b>: Can you bring caffeine on campus?<br /><br /><b><span style="color: #666666;">Tylan</span></b>: Oh yeah, totally, absolutely. That’s kind of the Mormon style party, is Diet Coke right.<br /><br /><b><span style="color: #666666;">Sista Laurel</span></b>: So would an underground, on campus, caffeine selling venture be profitable?<br /><br /><b><span style="color: #666666;">Tylan</span></b>: I think it would be, I actually wrote a paper on selling caffeine on campus and kind of figured out the numbers. I mean its a billion dollar industry and a lot of college campuses around the country make quite a bit of money from selling caffeinated beverages. And a lot of students depend on caffeine, so I think it would be really successful. It sounds like a Mormon drug deal.<br /><br /><b><span style="color: #666666;">Sista Laurel</span></b>: Well when you look at the dollars and cents it seems like something we Sistas might want to look into. Plus it’s not too dangerous, if the police pull us over we won't go to jail for having a trunk full of caffeine. And we’d pay tithing on our profits.<br /><br /><b><span style="color: #666666;">Sista Beehive</span></b>: I want to go on the record saying that I would not do that, because BYU security is serious.<br /><br /><b><span style="color: #666666;">Tylan</span></b>: Oh, they are. I got kicked out of the library once because I had a Jamba Juice and they said it wasn’t sealed sufficiently. Apparently the styrofoam cup and plastic lid it came in wasn’t good enough.<br /><br /><b>What was Jesus like when you met him? </b><br />Like I said, I don’t know my thought process or what was going on in my mind, but apparently I was walking down the yellow brick road with my pal Jesus.<br /><br /><b><span style="color: #666666;">Sista Beehive</span></b>: What was he wearing, was he dressed normal, were you wearing a dress and some sandals?  <br /><br /><b><span style="color: #666666;">Tylan</span></b>: [Laughing] I have no idea.<br /><b><span style="color: #666666;"><br /></span></b><br /><b><span style="color: #666666;">Sista Laurel</span></b>: So I guess you’re not going to be able to tell us if Jesus wears socks with sandals.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj86IlHwXQxeHIktKJGtgZr8af6tNybByMqRJjwNCzsmcP_zVqlcyBhEsF3HKf4JuHuTJU4ia4oQWdNO6VZy53ALaLRiMmFtvyfbAnTY4m7W8c-0tbpGEOOlujrxJ5BoKHY-4EincwQWq4/s1600/386564_10150713394504657_584889656_11779311_450112016_n.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj86IlHwXQxeHIktKJGtgZr8af6tNybByMqRJjwNCzsmcP_zVqlcyBhEsF3HKf4JuHuTJU4ia4oQWdNO6VZy53ALaLRiMmFtvyfbAnTY4m7W8c-0tbpGEOOlujrxJ5BoKHY-4EincwQWq4/s320/386564_10150713394504657_584889656_11779311_450112016_n.jpg" width="245" /></a></div><b>What made your family decide to film you?</b><br />I’m a typically bubbly, happy, outgoing person. I think they just figured that me hopped up on anesthesia would be quite interesting. We went through the doctor and made sure it was ok, and he okayed it as long as other patients weren’t on camera. And they just decided to film me. My brother actually watched the operation cause the Oral Surgeon’s our neighbor and he said I talked for about 10 minutes before he realized that he had his phone with him. That’s when he took out the cell phone camera and started recording in the operation room.<br /><br /><b><span style="color: #666666;">Sista Laurel</span></b>: Ah, so he realized there was going to be some interesting stuff said?<br /><br /><b><span style="color: #666666;">Sista Beehive</span></b>: Or did he just not trust your neighbor?<br /><br /><b><span style="color: #666666;">Tylan</span></b>: I think he just liked seeing my mouth get ripped open.<br /><br /><b>You said that your legs felt like Jell-o, was that green Jell-o?</b><br />I’m assuming with my Mormon background and growing up in Utah it was probably green Jell-o.<br /><br /><b><span style="color: #666666;">Sista Beehive</span></b>: With carrots?<br /><br /><b><span style="color: #666666;">Tylan</span></b>: Yup, with shredded carrots.<br /><br /><b>“I have a testimony and they never thought I had a testimony, ever!”</b><br />When I watch that back I don’t know what I was thinking, but I’m just assuming that I was declaring to the world that I have a testimony so any doubters would understand that I have a testimony.<br /><br /><b><span style="color: #666666;">Sista Beehive</span></b>: Do you have a lot of haters in your life?<br /><br /><b><span style="color: #666666;">Tylan</span></b>: No, I don’t, that’s why I don’t know why I said that in the testimony part. I’ve always been involved in a lot of leadership positions. I don’t think I have any haters, maybe I do, now I kind of do.<br /><br /><b>You might have some haters out there because you said, “I don’t want to go to BYU anymore, those Mormons…some are so nice, [whispers] but some are just so rude.”</b><br />That part makes me laugh really hard. Just cause, you know, you get your typical self righteous individuals that are sometimes hard to deal with and bear. So when I watch that back I was just assuming I was referring to those individuals.<br /><br /><b><span style="color: #666666;">Sista Laurel</span></b>: The BYU bullies?<br /><br /><b><span style="color: #666666;">Tylan</span></b>: [Chuckles] Yes, the BYU bullies.<br /><br /><b><span style="color: #666666;">Sista Beehive</span></b>: You’ve got 14 more minutes of fame, name some names, who is it?<br /><br /><b><span style="color: #666666;">Tylan</span></b>: I don’t have any names.<br /><br /><b><span style="color: #666666;">Sista Beehive</span></b>: Don’t say President Monson, don’t say him, but like who, Samuelson, Cecil, is it Cecil?  <br /><br /><b><span style="color: #666666;">Tylan</span></b>: No, I love the administration; BYU’s administration is absolutely fantastic.<br /><br /><b><span style="color: #666666;">Sista Beehive</span></b>: Vern Heperi is he one of em?<br /><br /><b><span style="color: #666666;">Tylan</span></b>: Nope, I love all, I love the whole administration.<br /><br /><span style="color: magenta;">Smart man, we’ll have to ask him who they are the next time he’s under anesthesia.</span><br /><br /><b>Speaking of people you love there was this quote: [In regards to disliking President Obama] “…And it's not because he's black. They are my kind of people because they are so wonderful to me, and I really appreciate it. In my Multi Cultural America class I learn that everyone is so beautiful.”</b><br /><br /><b><span style="color: #666666;">Sista Laurel</span></b>: Ok, we’ll have to break it down cause it was a long quote, but let’s start with how “we” are your kind of people, I mean we were really excited to hear that, so we were just wondering about it.<br /><br /><b><span style="color: #666666;">Tylan</span></b>: I really wish I could go back and go through my thought process like I’ve mentioned, just to know what I was thinking about.<br /><br /><b><span style="color: #666666;">Sista Laurel</span></b>: It’s ok, you don’t have to answer the questions as your high self. You can answer them as your sober self.<br /><br /><b><span style="color: #666666;">Tylan</span></b>: I mean, I just recently finished a class, Multi-cultural America and just learned a lot. It really kind of opened my eyes just to the kind of problems we are dealing with and have dealt with in America. So I’m assuming I clarified that after the Obama part, just to clarify that it’s not because he’s black. I come from a conservative background and I’m political, but I just really wish I could understand what I was thinking. I’m just assuming it was from the class that I took.<br /><br /><b><span style="color: #666666;">Sista Beehive</span></b>: So we really aren’t that wonderful to you?<br /><br /><b><span style="color: #666666;">Tylan</span></b>: No, no, you are, and my professor was actually of African American decent, and she was really amazing; I’m just assuming that’s what linked everything together. And the part, “everyone is so beautiful,” that line, it cracks me up.<br /><br /><b><span style="color: #666666;">Sista Laurel</span></b>: It brought tears to your eyes.<br /><br /><b><span style="color: #666666;">Sista Beehive</span></b>: Literally.<br /><br /><b><span style="color: #666666;">Tylan</span></b>: It did, and so to the people that think I’m faking it, I really wish I could cry on demand like that, it’s pretty amazing.<br /><br /><b><span style="color: #666666;">Sista Beehive</span></b>: Have people accused you of faking it?<br /><br /><b><span style="color: #666666;">Tylan</span></b>: Oh yeah, I get a lot of comments on YouTube. You’re always gonna have that, but just people saying; I took acting lessons and I’m faking. And I told them, you know, if I could act like that, and fake it like that, I would be making a lot of money in the acting industry.<br /><br /><b>What are you studying in school?</b><br />I’m still undeclared major, but I’m thinking somewhere in the business field or political field.<br /><br /><b><span style="color: #666666;">Sista Laurel</span></b>: Well how are you going to become a rich doctor and give all your money away?<br /><br /><b><span style="color: #666666;">Tylan</span></b>: Well that was another thing, political science, premed, or business those are the three venues I’m thinking of.<br /><br /><span style="color: magenta;">We are definitely hoping that Tylan’s dreams come true. When he’s a rich doctor, business man or politician and gives all his money away to live in a “dirt box,” we hope he remembers us Sistas and cuts us in on the cash too. We’d pay tithing on it of course!</span><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjC8EoqcaxxYx5PMgGcqhNFtyKxGRY-DNO6IVI7Al2Z1r0zFtg06Br6tc5oCDF6Fcur5p9EsocCGteSvE1u0aLJYusQn_CHl7CqE7PGNiSCGfmVGorNS-HU7VPrAs4Hn_8v1kISI6LZVYE/s1600/315532_10150536670669657_584889656_11080844_910653550_n.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjC8EoqcaxxYx5PMgGcqhNFtyKxGRY-DNO6IVI7Al2Z1r0zFtg06Br6tc5oCDF6Fcur5p9EsocCGteSvE1u0aLJYusQn_CHl7CqE7PGNiSCGfmVGorNS-HU7VPrAs4Hn_8v1kISI6LZVYE/s320/315532_10150536670669657_584889656_11080844_910653550_n.jpg" width="214" /></a></div><b>It might be hard for people to tell, but you are a huge Justin Beiber fan.</b><br />I love Justin Beiber! And to all the people that are such haters on JB, they need to see his movie and they just need to understand that everyone is an individual. Cause the Beibs really is a cool guy, not that I’ve met him, But I’m going to one day.<br /><br /><span style="color: magenta;">We hope that when that happens his family is there with the video camera too!</span><br /><br /><b><span style="color: #666666;">Sista Laurel:</span></b> Do you like his music, his dance moves, his girlfriend?<br /><br /><b><span style="color: #666666;">Tylan:</span></b> I do like his girlfriend, I think it’s a great choice, and I just appreciate the hard work he’s put into how far he’s come.<br /><br /><b><span style="color: #666666;">Sista Beehive</span></b>: [After talking politics for a few] …Now we are going to get to the serious question.<br /><br /><b><span style="color: #666666;">Tylan</span></b>: Perfect.<br /><br /><b><span style="color: #666666;">Sista Beehive</span></b>: The bad word.<br /><br /><b>Holy BLEEP I just feel like...Did I just say a bad word, no I didn't, I never swear before, that’s ok, I’m tough…”</b><br />When I went back and watched it, I came to the conclusion that most of it was all truth. In fact, like almost everything, I think the only part was saying that I’ve never sworn before because I have. I’m not like a crazy sailor swearer, but I have sworn before. So I don’t know why I said that. Maybe my subconscious was afraid because I was with my family and so I felt bad. But yeah, I think that’s what’s gotten a lot of people, in mostly a good way, just because it’s hysterical. But I obviously was sincere in feeling bad that I was swearing, but I guess later on blamed it on my mom.<br /><br /><b><span style="color: #666666;">Sista Beehive</span></b>: And your grandpa.<br /><br /><b><span style="color: #666666;">Sista Laurel</span></b>: So your mom, is she a sailor?<br /><br /><b><span style="color: #666666;">Tylan:</span></b> No, she’s not. I think growing up just like I’m not perfect, she’s not perfect, maybe I’ve heard her say some swear words so that’s just what maybe came to my head. And my grandpa did have a mouth every once in a while.<br /><br /><b><span style="color: #666666;">Sista Beehive</span></b>: I noticed how your dad threw your mom under the bus, letting everybody know it was the mother you heard swearing and not the father.<br /><br /><b><span style="color: #666666;">Tylan</span></b>: Yeah, that was pretty great, because it’s pretty even.<br /><br /><span style="color: magenta;">We just want to point out to all the women leaving comments about how cute Tylan’s dad is, the man is married. And despite popular belief Mormons do not practice polygamy. We got ya back Tylan’s mama.</span><br /><br /><b> You said, “Crap’s a good word, it’s a really good word.” Do you still feel that way?</b><br />Yeah I do, it’s a good substitute, especially for what I meant and growing up that was always the substitute word.<br /><br /><b>Is this your first year at BYU?</b><br />Yeah, I’m just starting my second semester.<br /><br /><b><span style="color: #666666;">Sista Laurel</span></b>: What made you choose BYU?<br /><br /><b><span style="color: #666666;">Sista Beehive</span></b>: You couldn’t get into the U of U? <br /><br /><b><span style="color: #666666;">Tylan</span></b>: No it’d be vice versa. I toured six universities and loved two. I was kind of torn between BYU and Utah State, but I just kind of had a feeling I was supposed to be at BYU. And even if stuff bugs me while I’m here, I just say I’m supposed to be here so it will all just work out.<br /><br /><b><span style="color: #666666;">Sista Laurel</span></b>: Even though you said you don’t want to go to BYU anymore?<br /><br /><b><span style="color: #666666;">Tylan</span></b>: I do though; I think I was just frustrated.<br /><br /><b><span style="color: #666666;">Sista Beehive</span></b>: How’d you do last semester?<br /><br /><b><span style="color: #666666;">Tylan:</span></b> I did pretty good for my first semester, so I don’t think it had to do with anything academically. Maybe something was just rolling through my head, that I wish I could grasp.<br /><br /><b>What’s the response been on campus, have students seen it [the video], have they not seen it?</b><br />It’s been really fun to watch it grow, actually today when I was going to class I saw some girls pounding on a window and I looked up and they said, “You’re the Mormon on drugs.” I’ve taken pictures with a few people. It’s kind of hard for people to recognize me though because I was a little under the weather and my eyes were closed. But we’ve seen people in the library watching the video and a professor showed it in class today supposedly.<br /><br /><b><span style="color: #666666;">Sista Beehive</span></b>: Have you been called in yet by the dean of students?<br /><br /><b><span style="color: #666666;">Tylan</span></b>: I haven’t and I’m hoping that they would enjoy it. The marketing director of BYU contacted me and they wanted to play clips. I don’t know what they’ll play, but they wanted to play clips this upcoming basketball game and bring me on the floor.<br /><br /><b><span style="color: #666666;">Sista Laurel</span></b>: It’s kind of like you’re the new Jimmer.<br /><br /><b><span style="color: #666666;">Tylan:</span></b> I don’t think I’m gonna be as big as Jimmer, but its funny when people recognize me or put two and two together.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgrb-IeP5UmgEoS7tg_UNLAkps1spv9Q9mtCEDF2uLiNHmjUEizPcUyYimIi0FCeNk1K0DgQp3ZxWTT5I6_o4VrUS8N9l0y5Vq4uSTo3CbKcS9BLpfImmAOVmjwunQMbZDlZ4GdJ4758mU/s1600/408811_10150698427174657_584889656_11731070_2131345809_n.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgrb-IeP5UmgEoS7tg_UNLAkps1spv9Q9mtCEDF2uLiNHmjUEizPcUyYimIi0FCeNk1K0DgQp3ZxWTT5I6_o4VrUS8N9l0y5Vq4uSTo3CbKcS9BLpfImmAOVmjwunQMbZDlZ4GdJ4758mU/s320/408811_10150698427174657_584889656_11731070_2131345809_n.jpg" width="210" /></a></div><b>So let’s get to what all the girls want us to ask you, are you single?</b><br />Am I single? I am.<br /><br /><b><span style="color: #666666;">Sista Laurel</span></b>: So you’re single. The ladies will be happy to know that. Now that Jimmer’s gotta girlfriend, they can move on to you.<br /><br /><span style="color: magenta;">Ladies don’t get too excited; Tylan turns nineteen this summer and plans to serve an <a href="http://lds.org/" target="_blank">LDS</a> mission.</span><br /><br /><b>What’s the craziest thing to happen since you've done the video?</b><br />Probably when people, mainly girls, freak out and want to take pictures with me. I just think it’s crazy, obviously I enjoy it, who wouldn’t. Obviously it’s a lot of fun, somebody recognizing you. That and probably that BYU wants to play it at the basketball game. I thought that was kind of a big deal. I’m curious to see what they will play seeing that some of it could cause a little bit of controversy.<br /><br /><b>You said in the video that you wanted to be famous. Is that truly a goal of yours, or just something your subconscious said?</b><br />I mean if I happen to stumble upon it, which it’s kind of going in that direction, you know I mean, nothing crazy, but like I said in high school I did a lot of leadership and I enjoy being involved and being a part of the community. So I think when I refer back to that part in the video; it’s kind of talking more or less being involved and just kind of helping change people’s lives.<br /><br /><span style="color: magenta;">Well Tylan, don’t get too famous, some people say the church told Steve Young and Jimmer that they couldn't serve missions because they were too famous. If you get too big you might end up serving a cannery mission with David Archuleta. We hear that’s where they send missionaries that are so famous they’ll get recognized anywhere they go. Best of luck in your endeavors Brother Glines</span>.<br /><br />Have you seen Mormon on Drugs, what do you think of Tylan’s creation? Would you wear an “I just want a normal Diet Coke t-shirt? Is YouTube good for the Mormons, or bad for the Mormons?
