Need a heart attack? Read this!

Let me just start by saying this. When Matt Giraud was saved by the judges in a previous episode, it was so obvious that they were going to do it. There was no element of surprise there. And because of that, they have decided that American Idol has to be more unpredictable. And that's my theory on how Adam Lambert ended up in the bottom three this week!

The show started off great with the group performance and a really hilarious clip on the Idols having a food fight. Then, it was time to get serious and get to the results. The Idols were separated into two teams. Matt Giraud and Kris Allen were standing on the right side of the stage, while Allison Iraheta and Danny Gokey were on the left side. Then, Ryan Seacrest asked Adam to pick which group he belonged in. Honestly, Adam should have just kept quite because he said, quote,"Based on last night's performances, I would have to say that group," he answered gesturing to Allison and Danny. But Ryan Seacrest pulled him over to Matt and Kris and announced that that was the bottom three. You should have seen the look on every one's faces. Allison and Danny didn't even go to their seats because they were practically frozen in shock. Kara Dioguardi's jaw dropped open, as usual and the crowd was practically close to tears. And of course, I was screaming my lungs sore and threatening to throw something at the television with my mum reminding me if I did, I owed her a lot of money.


Next, Ryan sent Kris back to safety so only Matt and Adam was left. But thankfully, Matt was eliminated in the end.

For all this time, I was thinking that Adam has already won the competition but this has got me thinking that anything can happen at this stage of the competition. Now, it's down to the final four: Allison, Kris, Danny and Adam. I predicted that maybe Allison or Kris will be in trouble. They are all just too good. But we will just have to wait and see what happens.

Whose Line Is It Anyway?

I believe it's my job as a blogger, to introduce you guys to some of the finest things in life. In this case television!
Now, when you're out saving the world from poverty and sickness, (which I applaud to those of you who do), I am going to contribute my part in helping the world by suggesting something that can help you unwind and relax so you can come up with more life-changing ideas. What more can I do to save the world?
'Whose Line Is It Anyway?' is probably the only show I ever laugh at until tears are streaming out of my eyes. It's hosted by Drew Carey and it stars three main comedians, Wayne, Ryan and Collin. Basically, in every show, Drew Carey will give them a certain topic and the comedians have to improvise on ways to make it funny. The best part is, none of it is scripted. The comedians have to come up with a funny line on the spot and they are damn good!
Here's a sample on what the show is about. This is one of my favourite games, 'Scenes From A Hat'. In this game, the audience will have to write a scene that they want the actors to preform and Drew gets to pick some of them! Enjoy! And remember. Laughter is the cure to World Issues!



P.S You might not get some of it and it is more of a grown up kind of comedy style! Don't say I didn't warn you!

School ISN'T Cool!

It's the dreaded time of year again. Folio time! It's that particular time a year where Geography and History lessons are put on hold so the the time could be used to discuss the folio's. I bet a majority of you reading this has heard in one way or another, teenagers screaming and blogging in anger about this dreaded thing. Take my fellow bloggers, Gaveena and Raevitha for example.
Speaking of Gaveena, she's about to do a summary on a book tomorrow. I would like to wish her luck and to remind her that I will be watching and you will be seeing my critic of it in my next post!
Coming back to the topic on school. As I was saying, folios are a nuisance. They were supposed to be given to us in February and we were to turn it in in July. But as all teachers enjoy watching students crack under the pressure of a short time period, we were assigned to our folios in late March and we are supposed to send it in by the end of April!
As brilliant as I am, I have this tendency to underestimate time, so I am spending sleepless nights just thinking about my folio still uncompleted in my computer. I'm actually trying to finish it now while updating my blog. Now that's what I call multi-tasking!
I'm also going to catch today's episode of American Idol. Aren't I just the perfect example for all PMR candidates out there? I'm going to end my topic on school for now. It just puts a damper on the rest of my blog. You are all welcomed to skip the post! Till the next post...

My opinion on American Idol Season 8

Guess what? I didn't go to school today! My sympathies to my fellow bloggers who did have to show up at school. My mum overslept and I only got up at 7.30am. Ah, bliss!
Now, prior to the title of this post, Wednesday happens to be my favourite day of the week. The most ultimate reason is, of course American Idol!!
Let's dish about American Idol shall we? We'll start with Kris Allen. In my opinion, he is so freaking cute and can really sing. But there are no chances that we will see him in the finals. Next is Danny Gokey. Danny is one of the front runners of this competition. He is consistent every week and there is a huge possibility he will be one of the finalist of this competition. Now what about Lil Rounds? I have no idea what's going on with her. She has a voice that sounds like it was a gift from God, but she has been choosing terrible songs over the weeks. Frankly, I don't want to see her go. If she does, there would only be one female contestant left and I'm just thinking for all the women population out there. Then, we have the guy who made Idol history by being the first contestant to be saved by the judges, Matt Giraud. I don't care if he has a gigantic zit smack on his forehead, have you heard him sing? He can riff like nobody's buisness. Again, don't think he'll make it to the finals, but anything can happen at this stage. Next, Anoop Desai. I'm rooting for the guy because he is the first Indian guy on the show that can really sing (excluding Sanjay Malakar. He was cute though). But I feel that he is very pugnacious. I mean, he acts as if he doesn't take the judges words into consideration.
Last but not least, in my opinion the best of the bunch, Adam Lambert and Allison Iraheta. I am not prejudice so I think that Adam Lambert has already won the competition (even though he is gay. Why are all the cute ones gay? How is a girl supposed to find a guy?). He has a voice that will never be heard again on national television for goodness sake! I bet there is a spot in the top three with his name on it. Allison Iraheta (as my fellow pyscho blogger, Melvinder puts it) should win American Idol. And I have to admit it too. Have you heard the girl hit even one bad note so far? Even if she doesn't win, she's only sixteen and she has a bright future ahead of her.
So that's it from this American Idol fanatic. Don't forget to watch this week's episode as two people will be going home tomorrow as the Judge's save has been used!


Till next time....

Update

Happy Saturday everybody! Don't you just love Saturdays? There is something about them that just hypnotizes you so that you don't feel like working or doing anything. I was just lying back, playing my PlayStation! Ah, what bliss!
But enough about me. I'm here to tell you about the taekwondo grading my sisters went to today. Arveeta was sitting for her Red 2 exam! Guess what? She had to break a plank! And she did on her second try!
My youngest sister did well too. She was probably the best out of her group! Congrats, sis!
By the way, if you're anxious for more pictures of David Archuleta, you find them in my Facebook page.

Crushin' on David Archuleta! Part 2








More pictures coming up folks. There is too much to upload in one post. Stay tuned!!


Crushin' on David Archuleta! Part 1

It was my first ever concert. I had to skip school for it and let me tell you, IT WAS WORTH IT! I can't believe I was this close to him!
Me and my sis (whom I love so much as she was the one who won the tickets) were there at 1 o'clock when the showcase wasn't starting till' 3, but even then it was full. We had to sit on a plant. Florence and her friend were there too so that was cool.
Waited for almost 3 hours! At 3.30, the Hitz.Fm deejay's JJ and Ian (who by the way was so hot!) came out, asked some questions and gave out prizes. Then they brought out a local Malaysian singer. He was an awesome dancer. Then, a guy who was from the first season of One In A Million came to preform. He supposedly ditched National Service to come. Next, the dude who won the second Malaysian Idol preformed. It was past 4.30 by now.
At exactly 5.00, David stepped on stage. I was immediately deaf and almost to tears. I don't know why, but it's so weird to see a person you've seen on tv in front of you and preforming live. You know how some singers sound good on the album but the suck when they sing live? Well, David sounded exactly like his album. Which just comes to show what a really good singer he is!
Enough of this minute-by-minute detail of the concert. Pictures are above this post guys. Eat your heart out!

Read It And Weep!

First of all, congrats to my fellow braceface, Gaveena on her first blog! Hope she gets inspired to keep up with it!
Second of all, my sister just won tickets to see David Archuleta live in Malaysia! Bad news is that I would be kissing up to her for the next two years!
The concert's tomorrow. Hope it's everything I expect it to be! And that's the end of this very imformative yet short post!
