The Battle of the Two Davids...

Seriously, there are two contestants on American Idol right now named David. David Cook, the rocker. David Archuleta the puppet. Honestly, I am very very tired of Archuleta. This kid picks the same crap week in and week out. Oh let's see Archuleta is going to sing something sensitive and try to belt it out. Check. At least Cook changes the song and makes them his own. I realize that I am not a 12 year old girl and therefore don't get Archuletta's appeal. So, go Cook!

Just Finals...

So, I haven't blogged in a while. School. It gets the best of you. However, today was the last day of classes and next week Finals then summer freedom! H and I are getting summer jobs. It should be fun. I only have 1 year left. I am excited. That is all for now...

American Idol...

Last night I had play rehearsal till 11pm. The play is this Friday and Saturday at JBU. The show starts at 7 pm and we're the second 1 act play. Tickets are first come first serve and only 5 dollars. Rehearsal went well. I think we finally found our flow.

When I got home from rehearsal Heather and I decided to watch American Idol. First, let me say that Mariah Carey is an amazing vocalist. Second, why did they pick her? That isn't really fair to the contestants. Of course then again it is a challenge. So, of course David Archuletta picked "When you Believe" seriously spare me. I am so over this kid. He is a one trick pony. Oh well. However, I thought that once again David Cook was the best. He is by far the most talented and one of the few that made the song his own. I wish that Kristy or Syeshia would just go away. That sounds mean but honestly they are boring. I like Brooke and Carly a lot too.

Today is my only day not to have rehearsal. Then tomorrow more rehearsal. Friday and Saturday the show. Joy!

I like to dance like a chicken...

Okay not really but sometimes when I'm bored I like to say random things. They prompt me to write something silly and sometimes deep. More the former than the latter. So, I really don't like to dance like a chicken. In fact that chicken song they play at weddings is annoying. It was banned from Heather and my wedding. Seriously, it is so weird. In fact the animal that my dancing gets compared to is a gopher. Now, I've never actually seen a gopher dance so I'm going to assume that that isn't a nice comparison. Anyway, that is enough of the dancing nonsense.

I used to want to runaway and live in a cave in Ireland. I really wanted to do this mostly so when I came back to America I could have a cool Irish accent. I really love that accent. In fact I often pretend that I am Irish and talk with the accent. I personally think it is pretty good. Of course put me in Ireland and we'll see.

So, play rehearsal is going okay. I am just really hoping we nail it. It is an amazing script and I just want to do it justice. The play could come across two ways. Ridiculously unbelievable or Amazingly poignant. It is all in the delivery. Clearly, the latter is the goal. The show is next Friday and Saturday night. I'm freaking out.

Heather sprained her foot this week. She fell at school and that all culminated into a trip to the ER. They were very nice and Heather is on some good pain meds.

School is getting ready to end. I'm thankful. I have to take a CLEP test this summer for Spanish. BOO! However, by doing this I can graduate in May! This is exciting. Wow. So, I think that is all for now. I'm sure this is exciting to all of you.

American Idol

So, I was shocked and impressed that Idol opened tonight with Shout to the Lord. It didn't make a lot of sense but I appreciated it. Still it was odd. Anyway, Jordan Sparks and Chris Brown were awesome. So, Michael Johns went home. I don't mind this so much. I mean yes other people should have gone home before him but the way that it was handled was very disrespectful. I mean I assume that Ryan gets his lines hand fed to him but that was just tactless. The whole thing about building him up then crushing him, mean. Oh well. I really like David Cook, Carly, and Brooke. Here is to next week.

Into the Wild...

Heather and I decided to stay in tonight. We rented Into the Wild and wow. This is a powerful story. I know it is based on a true story and a novel but I had never read it. I heard about the movie last year when it came to theatres but it slipped under the radar. However, now that I have seen it I am going to recommend it to everyone.

3 Weeks...

There I am, once again, staring at the blank page before me. No this isn't Natasha Bedingfield. I am trying to write one of the many papers for school. Sometimes, I feel like with every paper I am slowly getting more dumb. I realize the point of the research paper is too learn more about a specific topic. However, I think that once my brain has this new information it kicks something out. So, now my head is full of facts about Marlowe's Doctor Faustus and random Native American Literature novels. Yet, I seem to have forgotten how to walk. Oh well this is the price you pay.

Close but no cigar...

So, I am very excited. Heather and I want a Mac. However, we are in college and poor. So, we are saving money up. Today though I downloaded the Safari browser for Windows. I also have an object bar that simulates the Mac bar. It isn't the same but it at least feels somewhat cool. 

Rehearsal is going well but the play is quickly approaching two weeks to go! School is over in 4 then I need to get a summer job. Joy. Oh well more later.
