Top 8 show - Rock 'n roll night:

Recap of Manny being eliminated, flashes of the top 8, let's get started, people! Judges. Jake is wearing leather, he looks cool. Ben is too, but he wore that last week. Farley is wearing Zack's suit. Sass is wearing leather too, she wears awesome. She did the loser sign to Ben, ha. Zack is wearing a tank top, or as guys say, "Muscle shirt" he looks like a freak.

Jason! Shane! Josh! Theresa! Kalan! Jacob! Elena! Kaleb! That's the order that they came out in, and that's the order they're going in. It always goes like that. Rock 'n roll clip show, when it started, who started it, people that sing it, whatever stuff like that.

Clip of Jon taking them to the Rock n' roll museum in Cleveland, Ohio. Rawr, Kalan. Freak, elena. Theresa. Elena freak again. Josh. Shaney. Elena again. Shaney. Kalan. Josh. Kaleb. Josh. Kaleb. Jason. Josh. Jason is wearing Josh's pink shirt. They all talked about the exhibits and stuff.

Commercials. Beh. Jason is coming up first after the break.

Back. Jason Greeley - "Proud Mary" by CCR. He has a red punk shirt and a black bandana with white pattern. He is so Jason Greeley. He is like freak jumping and bouncing all over the place! Jake says it wasn't singing, but performing. Farley says it was cool entertainment value, but he wants more singing. Sass doesn't like him. Neither does Zack.

Shane Wiebe - "I believe in a thing called love" by the Darkness. He is so singing rockishly and freakishly high, which is the song but not him. Now he's like fainting because it was so much work for him because he hate singing like that because usually he is like all Clay Aiken. Farley says Shane pulled it off and he didn't think he could've. So does Sass. Zack says it's repulsive. Jake insults Zack. But compliments Shane. He was awesome, I admit, though I still blame him for Manny leaving before she should've.

Commercials. Josh Seller up next. Back.

Joshua Seller - "Iris" by the Goo Goo Dolls. I LOVE THIS SONG!! And Josh. Seller. Rocks. And he's hot. Sassy? She thought it was okay. Zack thought it was his best performance. Jake said vocally it was okay, but he doesn't believe it's rock 'n roll. Farley liked it. Shut up about the starsearch moment, that means nothing!

Theresa Sokryka - "Piece of my heart" by Janice Joplin. She looks AWESOME. I LOVE her boots, they're almost like mine except with higher heels! She's wearing a dress thing with jeans, I LOVE that look! And some freak belt thing. And she had really curly hair and her glasses are back. And her dress is like that see-through lacey thing. Zack's yelling at her, I hate him, she looks so scared. Jake says bad song choice. Farley says something about dimension. Sass says good voice, bad song. 1-866-9-IDOL-04

Loreal beauty clip. Something about Elena freaking out and being a freak. Hair stuff for the guys, makeup stuff for the girls.

Commercials. Kalan and Jacob up next. Back.

Kalan Porter - "Paint it black" by the Stones. He's wearing too much mascara. First week too much mascara was Josh, next week it was Jason, this week it's him. Jake says he can do better. I agree. Farley says he's 18 years old and he's picking the right songs week after week after week and he's the man. Sass says he took a mature approach to the song, and well done. Zack said the song was bizarre, and that he was fake with the holding notes and whatever and people are holding back and whatever. I thought it was okay, but nothing THAT special. Yes, you heard me right.

Jacob Hoggard - "Everything" by Lighthouse. He rocked. This was his song, his night. Farley and Sass liked it. Zack said it was okay, but he'd rather listen to Jacob sing bad than anyone else in the world sing well, or something like that. Jake says he's totally rock and roll.

Commercials.

Elena Juatco - "I just want to make love to you", by Etta James. That is SO not an appropriate song for a 19 year old to sing, that is just WRONG. That was like Jasmine Trias singing "Saving all my love for you" in the top 3 night of AI3. She was cheap. Sass says whatever, and she even admits the song choice was wrong. And Sass is the queen of BEING wrong! She wanted to make out with Gary Beals, for freaks sake! The guy sitting behind Sass is that guy from that bullying advert. THAT'S how boring it was. Zack hated it. Jake says whatever. Farley disagrees and says he enjoyed it.

Commercials. Kaleb up next as our final perfomer of the night. Back.

Kaleb Simmonds - "You ain't nothing but a hound dog" by Elvis. He was so funny! And he was so good! And he looked great! Zack says he should've sang a cooler track, but he still stands up. Jake says there's only one Elvis, and only one Kaleb. Farley says he rocked. Sass says it was off the hook and he made it his own and he's incredible. Now he's being a freak with Ben!! That is SO Kaleb.

Hello peoples. What is up in da hood? Okay sorry. I'm just really bored. For some reason I woke up at like 7:21am so I've just been up. I'm listening to Thierry Amiel "Je regarde la-haut", which is like such the greatest song. I love Thierry so much. I started out having like 4 songs of his and then when I tried to get more from www.idolonline.org it wouldn't let me, like it kept giving me this freak 404 error or something. I hate it when it does that. Now I'm listening to Thierry "Un jour arrive". I got so many songs by him last night, I went crazy, and even my mom likes them now. These are all the ones I got:

From his CD:

1. Je regarde la-haut
2. Avant
3. Mots bleus
4. On s'envole
5. Ma belle histoire
6. Sans toi
7. Etends-tu les hommes
8. Ce qu'on sera
9. Un jour arrive
10. Changer d'air
11. Deux mille ans sur la terre
12. Avec le temps
13. Amsterdam
14. Je suis malade
15. L'aigle noir
16. Quand on n'a que l'amour

Extra songs:

1. Je ne suis pas un hero
2. All by myself
3. En apesanteur
4. Mon fils, ma bataille
5. Fame
6. Love me
7. Aller plus haut
8. Savoir aimer
9. Les yeux revolvers
10. La vie ne m'apprend rien
11. Casser la voix
12. L'orphelin (duet with Willy Denzy, who is like the French version of Nsync)
13. Fan

I tried to get "Je saigne encore" and "Les lacs du connemara" but then they needed more sources or something retarded like that. I hate it when it does that. The reason I like Thierry so much is because he can sing really high and he yodels all the time which I totally look for in a singer. I found him when I was searching for who would be at World Idol 2004 (which is like 20 people, which is like 9 more than last year, so I don't know how they're gonna fit that in unless they cut some cheap people out which they should because there's like 2 cheap people who shouldn't be there). Thierry didn't win. Jonatan Cerrada did. I hate Jonatan Cerrada, honestly, I do not understand how he won. He sucks! My favourite song by Thierry is "En apesanteur" because he like majorly yodels and I just love it so much. Oooh he just did it! And in this song he doesn't do it with a word he just does the sound along with a run which I love SO much! My mom doesn't get why I'm so impressed by that, but it's just because yodeling down is really easy, anyone can do that. I can do that. But yodelling up is really hard to do. I think Jonatan won because of his looks. Thierry's like 22 and he looks kinda old, so that's why, but I love him, he's so cool! In all of Thierry's live show songs girls are like screaming and then there was this one time where they were screaming his name and like stomping and clamping and he's just like "Merci. Merci. Merci." And he sounds so shy! I am so glad I didn't actually watch French Idol I. I would've gotten SO mad that he didn't win. Now I'm listening to "Aller plus haut". He yodels down in this song. I might be taking a little while to type but that's because I have a stomache ache so I have a pillow up against my stomache and it's kinda hard to type like that. I think it's because I ate breakfast right when I got up and it was early, and I SO should not do that, and I so can't do that because my stomache doesn't like it so it backfires at me! Like I don't get sick, but I just get a really bad stomache ache. Note to self: "Aller plus haut" is the song where the audience blows up. Seriously, if they did that on AI or CI, they'd be kicked out of the theatre!

I have to tell ya'll something. That I still can't believe happened and is happening. It's a two part story so I don't really feel like typing the whole thing out so I'm just going to copy-paste from my MSN conversations, I've like told all my friend about it, so. "Les mots bleus":

Part 1: Last monday, I was at the mall with my friends and we split up because I wanted to go look at video games, so then I went and after I was sitting on the bench outside the store and these kids come sit by me so we're talking about lego and stuff, and then their mom comes over so we're all talking when this really really hot blond guy comes over to see his cousin who was with me, because he wanted him to come into the video game store with him. So then I went into the video game store and talked to the guy for a little bit and then they left and I didn't get his number so I never thought I would see him again so I was really pissed (he's from England and he's staying here for a month, the only reason I talked to him was because his aunt was getting really pissed off because him and James (his cousin) were spending so much time in the video game store so I volunteered to go freak out of the store (he goes a private school so he doesn't know any girls) but it didn't freak him out, he actually talked to me, so we were like oh my god (me and his aunt, that is)).

Part 2: But then I went back to the mall two days ago with my friend, and I SAW HIM!!! so then we sat together and talked and he gave me the number of where he was staying (with his grandparents).

So he's 16, he has blond hair, he's really tall, he has round glasses like Harry Potter, and he's from England and he goes to a private school with Daniel
Radcliffe, the guy who plays I would NEVER take him to my school though because he'd get SO made fun of because he has glasses and he tucks his shirt into his pants and he wears brown leather shoes. He's not like other guys like "Hey, you wanna go out with me?" it was like "I really want to get together with you sometime soon", which guys here totally don't act like, they're all jerks and he's so nice, which is why I like him. And when I was like "So you'd actually want to?" he was like "Well yeah, at least ONCE!!" like he thought I was saying no lol...he's like "You seem nice enough!" and then I was like "Well, I know I shouldn't say this before I actually know someone, but it's just, due to past experiences with other people, I didn't think you'd want to". My mom's cool with it because he's from England like her and he goes to a private school so she knows he's not a loser, which I don't know why she would even think that because if she took one look at him she'd be all "Oh my god I'm so mean why did I think that?" But she does want to meet him because he's older than me, and she doesn't know him, which I totally understand. He said on Saturday he'd call me back over the next few days because he's not really sure what he's doing, because he's not local, but he said we could like meet up at the shopping centre thing and then he'd "take me to the lake and we could talk there". Well, that's not exactly what he said. He said "I'll take you there, and we can talk" which is pretty much the same thing but not direct quote, like hello?

He wasn't home when I phoned him on Saturday but he phoned me back and I was like "I'm really glad you phoned me back" and he's like "Well, of course!" and I was like "Well I wasn't sure if you would" and he's like "Oh come ON, you've got to give me more credit than that!" and then I was like "Well, nobody ever does, which is why at the mall I asked for your number instead of giving you mine, because I didn't think you'd use it."

I don't think his mom likes me very much though, because when we were sitting together at the mall she came over and he was like "Mom, what's grandma and grandpa's phone number?" and she's like "Why?" and he's like "Because" and she's like "Tell me what it's for!" and he's like "Because I want to give to her" and she kind of looked at me like um what is this trailer trash that you have picked up and she's like "Why?" and he's like "BECAUSE!!" so finally she just stared at him and then gave it to him, and then he turned to me and repeated it and then I went to go write it on my hand but then I kept getting the second half wrong so then he kept repeating it but he was saying it so fast it kept messing me up and then finally he just took my pen (not to mention my hand) and then wrote it himself and I of course was like totally embarassed at the fact that I couldn't even get 4 numbers right and so then when he was writing it I was like "I'm sorry, I'm not stupid, I'm just deaf", which is actually true, but he doesn't know that! He probably thinks I'm not deaf and just stupid. Or stupid and deaf. Or deaf because I'm stupid. Or stupid because I'm deaf. I could go on, but I think ya'll get it.

But I asked him about his mom and he said that it was just because she thought we had just met but he told her that he had seen me before so she's okay now. At least that's what he says.

At the beginning of the conversation he kept asking me where I lived but I wouldn't tell him because there's absolutely no point in telling people where I live because nobody EVER knows where it is, especially not people from the other side of the world! Holy crap, Thierry, calm down in your freak Donne Le Port Amsterdam yelling. Sorry. So anyway, I was just like "Well...I live on, um, like a street?" and then I started laughing and I was like "It's kind of hard to find." Holy crap, Thierry, calm down in your freak 2000 Ans Sur La Terre yelling. Sorry. So anyway, he was just like "Well, I don't even know where you live so I don't even know if we could like, set something up!" and he was like getting all POed at me just because I wouldn't tell him where I lived, but like I said, there's no point, unless he's like actually planning to go there, which he's not.

But I still can't believe what is happening. Like what are the chances that this actually happened, like I never thought I'd see him again, and now I'm seeing him like as a meeting thing. Well like not a meeting, but ya'll know what I mean. Holy crap, Thierry, calm down in your freak L'aigle noir yelling. Another reason I love Thierry is because he does vibrato like there's no tomorrow. Anyway, back to whatever it was that I was talking about before. Ah yes, I remember, as it was only two seconds ago that I wrote it. What a freak I am!

My friend says I'm lucky to know him, even though she doesn't. I think am. One of the lines in my MSN SN (screen name) is about him. It's the main chorus from the Canadian Idol top 10 group song "You make me so very happy" and it goes like "You make me so very happy, I'm so glad you came into myself". Isn't that nice? I think it's nice.

Yesterday I wrote his name in hieroglyphics (ancient egyptian) and rune (ancient roman) and I'm going to give it to him when I see him. And he's gonna be like "Oh my god what a nerd she knows how to write in languages that most people don't even know about unless they're forced to learn it in school!". We learned rune in school. Well actually, we didn't learn it, we just had to write our name in it by using the textbook for a project or something, I just thought it was so cool so I kept doing it and practiced writing other stuff until I had the whole rune alphabet completely memorized!

And as for the Hieroglyphics, I went to an Egyptian exhibit at the museum the other day and some woman was volunteering to write people's names in it, so I talked to her for a little bit and she wrote my name, so I looked it up and now I'm working on memorizing it! It's really fun. But he can't call me a nerd, because he is one too. Well, I'm not sure if he's a nerd or a geek. He's not a geek, but he's not a nerd either. He's a good-looking nerd, that's what he is. Well-dressed nerd. Now I'm listening to the first English song I've heard today: Jacynthe "Seize the day". I'm trying to sing but I can't because I have a cough and a cold. So I keep coughing and then hacking and choking and almost getting sick. I so do not think that is good for my throat.

Ooh, I have two more things. When he first phoned me back it was like 5:30 and I was watching the end of Lizzie McGuire because me and my mom and my friend Stephanie were about to go out but I knew I had to stay in a little longer because he might phone me back, so then the phone rang and I was like "Hello?" and I actually answered it normally this time instead of that freak French way that I always do and he's like "Hi, is Rebecca there?" and I was all like "Yeah, hi, it's me" and he's like "Oh hi, it's --------" and then I was like "Oh hi!" and then he was like "Hi, you called earlier, but I was out, sorry" and I was like "Oh, it's okay!" because like seriously, why is he apologizing to me for being out? He is a tourist, after all, and he is visiting, so I think he has better things to do than call people who he met at the mall.

And then suddenly in the middle of the conversation when I asked him how he knew who I was and he said that he recognized me and I was like "Okay, I don't usually wear that much makeup, it was just because I was out with my friend" and then he didn't say anything and I was like "Yeah...so...that's just...how it is!" and then I started laughing and I was like "Sorry, I'm just totally running out of things to say". And then I was like "I wasn't sure if I should phone you today or not, because it's like, when someone gives your their phone number, you don't want phone them like really soon after they give it to you, because then they'll think that you're like, totally obsessed with them" and then he cut me off and was like "It's okay, I don't think that" and then I continued like "But then if you wait like a really long time, then they'll think that you don't like them". And then he said that he would never not phone because he thinks that would be not nice, which it would be. If that makes sense. Which it should. But if it doesn't then whatever.

I still remember exactly how I saw him at the mall the second time: Me and Steph were walking around near the food court, we were heading back to the stores, and then we walked past the Orange Julius stand, and then I guess I was staring at the floor because I saw James (he's 6, he's really small) and then I started feeling kinda freaked, and then I looked up and saw his mom standing beside James, but I didn't really see much of her the first time so I was like whatever, but then I look over more and then I saw him and then I turned to Stephanie and I was like "Oh my god, oh my god, there he is, I don't believe this, what do I do?" and I just was totally freaking out and I had my hand over my mouth to make sure that I didn't like scream or something, and Stephanie had no idea what was going on she was like "Who? Where? Where is he? Is he that short little kid?" because she could see him, but she thought he was the woman's husband. That is so Stephanie. And afterwards when I asked her how she could think that she was like "Well he's so tall!" so then when his mom and cousin went to go get something and he walked the other way I ran over to him and I called his name and he turned around and he was like "Hi!" and I was like "Hi, do you know who I am?" and he's like "I don't know your name, but I know who you are, yeah, I recognize you" and I was like "Oh, it's Rebecca" and he's like "Oh okay" and then I was like "I kinda wanted to talk to you, because I didn't get to before" and he's like "Okay well, let's sit down, I'm just waiting for my family to come back" so then we sat down at like a table in the food court and then I was like "So, how are you?" and he's like "I'm fine, how are you?" and I was like "I'm good!" and then I was like "So, I didn't think that I would see you again" and he's like "Well, I'm here!" and then I was like "So, where exactly are you staying?" and he's like "With my grandparents at Royal Oak" and I was like "Oh okay...um, is there any chance that I could like, get your number?" and he was like "I don't really know what it is, but I'll ask my mom when she comes back...so where do you live?" and I was like "I live near Royal Oak" and he was like "Okay" and I was like "So you're okay, with me having your number?" and he's like "Yeah it's fine!" and I was like "So you don't think I'm like, crazy?" and he's like "Not anymore than ANYONE else I know!" and then he was like "Oh, they're coming back now!" and then all that other stuff happened. I wonder if James remembered who I was? I like James, he's cool. And that other kid, whoever he is. That was so funny, when James spilled his lego all over the mall floor last time and me and that other kid were laughing so much, but he was trying not to because he knew his mom would get mad at him but he couldn't help it because it was so funny. And then his mom (English guy's aunt) came back from the body shop and I was like "So what exactly happened with James and his lego?" and she just kind of sighed like she was embarassed and then me and the guy started laughing again and he was like "Sorry mum but it was pretty amusing" which it totally was. I like the English guy's aunt, she's nice, and I just totally had to ask her where she got her mascara, it's green and it looked SO sweet, and she told me she got it at the bay downtown and it was the only place you could get it, she said it was her favourite. She's going to freak when she finds out her nephew can actually talk to girls, let alone phone them and ask if they want to meet with him sometime!

The reason I haven't mentioned his name at all is because I was saving it till the end. I love his name, except it reminds me of someone I hate. My dude's name is Jonathan, and it reminds me of Jonatan, that stupid French Idol 1 winner guy who beat Thierry! I hate him! But I like Jonathan, that name is sweet.

Wow, I've been writing since 8:05am, that's like 4 hours, I hope it lets me post! I've been sending emails and being on MSN and listening to songs and stuff, that's why I've taken so long. And I've been writing stuff in Hieroglyphics. But I think I'm going to go wake up my mom now, since it's like 12pm and I have to give my dad his hieroglyphic/rune name translation that I made for me. I hope he lets me go out with Jonatan. I don't see why he wouldn't, he's a really nice guy. But my brother Patrick is going to FREAK when he comes back from Quebec and finds out! Because even though he's mean to me, he's really protective, and he's gonna be like to my mom "Um why are you letting her go out with him he's almost as old as me, he's two years older than her, you don't even know him he could be some kind of freak and you wouldn't even know, I can't believe this." I can just hear him saying that right now. My brother's 18, Jonathan's almost 17. Ooh, my mom's up now! I've been up since 7:21am.

I gotta go now, I'm doing RP (role play) with someone on MSN, and talking to my friend Laura Chan about Canadian Idol.
