I heart David Archuleta so much. He's adorable.
I keep having dreams about going back to England. *sigh* I should go check out the little British place downtown... except I'm sure they take dollars instead of pounds and I bet they don't have accents, either! And Amber'n'Chris won't be there ♥
I think I'm PMSing. Consider yourselves warned.
I am of the ilk that when I'm bad at something, I just stop doing it. It's not worth the pain and frustration. But sometimes I'm bad at the fun things, which is a little murkier. Because if I'm still having fun, shouldn't I keep doing it? How do I know if the positive experience of the fun outweighs the negative experience of knowing I suck?
Do I just think too much? Or not enough?
At least it's nearing the end of the payroll processing cycle now so I'll be too busy to stay inside my head for too long.

Date: 2008-02-20 04:30 pm (UTC)I also love Danny because so gay and fabulously spunky. Actually there are a lot of guys who are really good, the last guy to sing was good, as well as the first (don't remember names) Yeah, lots of good talent this year.
Not looking so forward to the women tonight, I'm not a huge fan of female singers, but the guys are good this year :)

Hehe, but yeah, he TOTALLY has to be gay (which should make me like him more, really. don't know what's going on there) The first guy was David Hernandez, he's good, yeah... and the last guy was Michael Johns, the Aussie guy - I think he'll go far.
I'm not even gonna be home for part of tonight so I have to tape it and watch the first part when I get home, will be dead tired tomorrow. Hehe. But I HAVE to watch it because I'm in the office pool! They're teasing me about liking David Archuleta. But how could anyone NOT? He's sooooooooooooo cute. And the guys always seem to be more fun to watch than the girls, don't they?
I'm already in a better mood than when I posted this. Yay AI.

Date: 2008-02-20 05:40 pm (UTC)That's the thing, this year I didn't hear anyone and wonder how they made it into the competition they were all good. Just that some were really great :) Like; David A. (just realized there are *3* Davids!), David H., Jason, Michael and I really liked Danny, Colton and Garrett as well.
Good stuff this year :)
I guess my dream top 6 guys will be Colton, Danny, David A., David H., Jason and Michael.

I miss Josiah. Poor little emo kid! (though I admit his final audition SUCKED HARDCORE)

Yeah, I don't have to file until tomorrow :\ I'm at the front today :)

Date: 2008-02-20 06:27 pm (UTC)I understand about wanting to go back to England. I went to Italy for almost a week this past New Years, and I want to go back sooooooooooo bad. I keep thinking about trying to spend a semester over there, but when I've checked it out, it just seems so expensive. So I don't know. =/ I really want to go back though. And I heart accents and languages I don't understand. We flew on a German airline, and I was surprised how much I enjoyed listening to them talk. I always thought German was a harsh language, but it can actually sound quite pretty I think.
I think if you're having fun that outweighs everything else! I admit it's easier said than done. I really enjoy taking photographs, and I begun feeling frustrated in my photography class yesterday because I just don't feel like my pictures are that creative or, well, just good enough really. My teacher was talking about different creative concepts that people did in previous classes, and I just think my pictures are going to be so boring in comparison. It really bums me out.
Sounds like you think too much. Just coming from personal experience.
David Archuleta is cute! I'm not AI fan, and I haven't watched a full episode, but I did catch a few clips of it. I also liked Josiah, although my aunt feels that he says whatever he thinks people want to hear and I'm not sure I disagree.

You probably didn't see Josiah's last performance then? It was pretty cocky, what he did. And he wasn't good enough to get away with it!
Thanks for the nice long comment ♥

Date: 2008-02-20 07:31 pm (UTC)Hehe, eventually when I do this I could just have them knock down the fence between me and my brother, we don't need that one. But if one of us ever wants to move that might be an issue when trying to sell!
