Canadian Idol: Best & Worst of:

Beh. Ben is singing with some horrible freak. Hey, it's Kim Savage. Not the freak, she's just in the room.

Whoa what the heck. Ben and Jon are singing with suits and hats and canes. Fred Durst. Meat? Jon is coughing. Backup dancers. Wearing...sparkly things. Whoa.

Rick Jordan: Something more. Dude, that's Ryan Malcolm's song. This guy's not even hot.

Jake says they don't know they're bad.

Kristen Dohan. She wasn't that bad. I saw her just a minute ago on a re-run tape I was watching before the show. She's actually good. If she took lessons, that would be good.

Christopher Macfarlene. Singing Spice Girls. Right.

Sean Dooling.

Edward Mblahahaljdsflakdjf or something.

Jordan Ford. He looks like Kalan, except ugly.

Some ugly people.

Beh Julia. Nice hat.

Some more ulgy people.

Break. This is a pretty cheap show!

Back. Ugh, Bonnie.

I like Ian. God Zack, calm down. Ugh, Wes, bad memory.

Ugh, Wes and Bonnie are on the stage singing "I got you babe". Whoa, Wes looks hot. Wes is actually pretty good, Bonnie is just horrible. Break.

Gary Beals album promo. I have to get that.

Back. CECIL!!! It's raining blood? That's not right.

Alison. She's okay. Julie. Ugh. Sarah James. And some girl who likes Jake. Ugh, Shelly. Katie. I like her. Didn't she make the top 100?

UGH, Lindsay Chief Calf. WHAT A STUPID NAME!! Nicole Dye. Please die. Kenia Del Toro. Another stupid name. Oh god no, Slyvie. I hate it when sucky people hold notes, it sucks. I think Farley likes her, he keeps staring at her shirt. That's because it's like a black leather bikini top with a black see-through lace shirt over it.

Johnny Rockstar and Sylvie are on the stage singing "That's what friends are for". He looks freakish, I'm surprised he's not from Newfoundland the way he's dressed! Sylvie sucks. She looks like Fantasia with hair. HAHA!!

You get to vote for your favourite duet at www.idol.ctv.ca. I would have voted for Wes and Bonnie, but Bonnie just makes me mad, she thinks she so great and she's ugly.

Break. When will this garbage show be OVER?! In like half an hour, great. I can't BELIEVE I have to watch this, let alone recap it. It's called "The BEST and worst of Canadian Idol" not "The Best OF the worst". Shouldn't they should be showing some good people too? Like that really good hot guy that they showed in the promo for this, that guy who sounded like Shane only better and hotter, and Shane is pretty hot.

Back. Joel, ew. I remember Sandra Pitts. She was too loud. Marvin, I knew he was going to be on there. He's that Japanese guys who sings Dan Hill. NOT Mikey Bustos. Lol Jake ate a bad lunch. This girl is singing Madonna. She's good, but her dancing sucks. That was in Montreal. I remember Sass's shirt. Ugh god, Shira Katz. I would hate to be that ugly. She's making up some cheap CI song. Some fatty called Margaret. Um...you don't wear a shirt like that when you're that fat. Even Zack says it's gross. Eric Cartman? Oh, Carmen. Whoops.

Marvin Poon and that fat girl Margaret-Anne Karen. Knocking on Heaven's door. Great.

Break. I have a headache. I need asprin.

Back. Hey, it's that Atm Muttakin! I can't swallow my asprin. It just keeps sticking to the roof of my mouth.

Jordie Houghton. THAT'S THE HOT GUY!! Farley even agrees that he's good. How stupid of them. That guy was so cute, and he was so good.

Beh Jonathan. He's kind of hot. But not as hot as my Jonathan. And before some Spanish person who told Zack his pants were too tight.

Ugh, i remember that guy, I just watched im on the re-run. Whoa, it's Willie White's dad. She wasn't bad. Ew, is that even a guy? What a freak, he's copying that other guy! It's a Whole New World and all the cheap people who sang it. Zack says the words "Tell me Princess" are now banned from his household.

Oooh "Whole new world" trio. That blond guy, a Chinese guy, and JORDIE!! He's so cute!!! When I saw Jordie in the promo, I thought they were going to show him in the good part. But there WAS no good part! Hey, it's that Joel dancing freak loser guy! Since when is flapping like a bird dancing? Rick and Thomas were the other guys. Rick Thomas. Isn't that a person!

Break. good, only 5 more minutes. My head still hurts, I swallowed the asprin but it's not working! I want to Johnny to be here. And no, not Johnny Rockstar, Johnny Monson. Way to let your palm pilot get soaked, genius.

Back. Time to vote for my favourite duet. It has to be the trio, Jordie is so cute! Now Ben and Jon are singing again. Now they all come out and sing. Maybe THIS is why I have a headache. Ben IS NOT this bad of a singer. I've heard him sing normally before. Now Kat singing "A Dream is a wish your heart makes". She's good, they're using it as a song for all the clips.

FINALLY IT'S DONE!!

Sunday, August 29, 2004

I'll do Wednesday's and Thursday's show together (sorry that it's late, I was at my friends house)

Performances: Summertime Hits:

Shane Wiebe - "Can't take my eyes off you" by Frankie Vallie and the Four Seasons. That was THE worst thing I have EVER seen in my life, he was singing Lauryn Hill's version! Who DOES that, man? It sucked. Guy was like a trillion times better. Ugh. He even messed up the words at the beginning! The judges thought it was okay.

Kalan Porter - "Long train runnin'" by Dobie Gray, or someone like that. I know this song. He sang okay, but he looked like a retard. When he sang "Without love" he had his tongue hanging out and this disgusting look on his face so it looked like he was gonna barf. The judges didn't like it. At the beginning of his clip when he was at the Toronto PNE thing he was holding these disgusting chicken things and he held it up to the camera and was like "You want one?". Beh.

Jason Greeley - "Bad Case Of Loving You". He ran everywhere, even through the audience! He was so funny. I voted for him most. I can't remember what the judges said. Something about generic bar rock idol or something.

Jacob Hoggard - "I don't want to miss a thing" by Aerosmith. Everyone has sung that song, so it wasn't that different. Billy Klippert was better. Jacob always holds on to the back of his pants while he's singing, he looks retarded. The judges liked him. Farley says he will recognize Jacob's voice in his sleep. Ew.

Theresa Sokyrka - "Cruisin'" by Dobie Gray. Sorry. If I don't know who it's by, it's by Dobie Gray. I know this song though, I've heard it a billion times on my radio station. She had a flower on her microphone. She was awesome. Zack said she's his favourite singer left on the show. Her and Jason SO like each other. Just look at this pic http://www.ctvmedia.ca/images/0c8v6084.jpg

Thursday:

Results show starts with Ben being witty: "Who is the real thing, and who is a summer fling?" Hmm. And; "Who sang the right notes, and who didn't get the votes?" Um...Ben has plans to be a poet when he retires.

We start the weirdest group performances ever with Theresa singing Walking on Sunshine, and the boys running around the audience. Shane and Jason don't appear to be having as much fun out there as the High Five Duo, Jacob and Kalan. Those two are running about, mugging for the cameras, all that stuff.

Back on stage, Jacob and Kalan smash into each other. This is fun! Then, Jason starts singing Summer in the City. Fun over, kids! The Grimmace has arrived. Kalan goes next, looking not quite as ill as he did last night. I must admit, I am waiting for any song where he tries to force out a word, just to see if his "I'm seriously about to lose my lunch here" look was just yesterday. He just looks like he is trying too hard. Poor Hobbit-Boi.
Then Jacob, who can enjoy anything, it seems, as long as he has company. I love the outfit too....red shoes. Cool!
Shane now does the best part, which is Sunshine of Your Love. This song suits his voice. Now why didn't he do this song yesterday? I am starting to like Shane.
Ok then they all sing, then the break.

I noticed that Ben and half the judges seem to be wearing black. Ominous!

Then Gary Beals. Well actually, a zillion dancers on the stage, I thought one of them was white, but maybe not. All dressed in white, as is the Beals when he comes out finally. His "partner" in the dance is some woman who is about a foot taller and ten years older and who is wearing a retarded shirt with air-conditioned underarms. How freakshow is that! He mumbles on about "Sunny Tays" and I don't quite know what else, it's almost a surprise when he sings two words in a row that I can understand. All kinds of choreography, shades of every video going back 2o years. Can't he just SING like Billy did? I wonder if we will have the same silliness when Ryan is on the show.
Ben tells Gary how wonderful he is, I think how short he is. He can at least carry on a conversation without talking about throwing up, so I have to give him that over Billy.
Break. Now...the worst group song ever. Beach Boy's tribute, starting with I Get Around. This should be good, Shane gets the high notes. He looks like he knows this is the silliest thing ever, and he is just going to do it anyway, and have fun. Jacob goes next, and he winds up on the floor dancing. Jason looks like he does not want to be with these idiots! Theresa and Kalan are going all low profile here. Then Theresa sings Wouldn't it be Nice. Jason is acting suspicious here. First, I thought he was half ignoring here because he doesn't like the group stuff. Then I saw the Airplane photo, where she is all curled around his leg. I think he doesn't know how to pretend that he likes her. Seeing as how he does and all. Background music seems a bit too loud, her voice is disappearing again.
Then we get Good Vibrations, with Kalan starting out the singing. Then they all supposedly sing the really high notes. I think Jacob is faking it. They all move downstage, Jason gets to sing the next part and his mike cuts out. At this point they all get confused, as the next high notes come along, followed by the next line, which they all start singing at different times. That was a "watch it many times" part, because it was so bad as to be very funny. Especially Jason, who is trying to act like nothing happened. Jacob and Shane seem delighted that it is all so totally dumb, and Kalan looks like he about to get in trouble with the teacher. Theresa is the only one who sails through like it didn't happen. Even the judges are laughing .
This is still only halfway through the show, so they fill the rest with Jon Dore singing about Monday's Best and Worst show. And a clip show. More clips, this time about the judges. What they really do for a living. Oh and that Zack went to a private school. Cool! What do we get next week? Ben and Jon and their high school yearbooks perhaps.
Finally, results. And it will be bottom two only. First member...Jason. (ohyesohyesohyesohyes...)
Break. Matt Dusk next week, oh who cares. Oh no. Jacob has his coat on. He is prepared to sing Everything, where he throws it on the floor.
Theresa...safe.
Kalan...safe.
Another break. I heard that Shane and Jacob went over to Jason in the break, before they knew who would join him. Ben should be hung up by his feet for a week. He said "Jacob, I'm sorry. You are safe". Which gave Shane just enough time to imagine he was safe before he found himself in the bottom two.

Long versions of each of their songs. Jason stays on the stage this time, Shane remembers the words. In the end though, it is Shane who gets sent home. He does a sing out of "Angel" to his wife, who is singing along too.
Theresa and Kalan are puddles of tears as usual, Jacob forces himself to smile, but after the song he is the first to hug Shane for about ten minutes, and he comes away all teary too. Jason goes all big brothery and tries to console Kalan. There...another sad ending. I have towonder, would they all collapse if it was Jason? I have a feeling we will never know. Grrrr.


Saturday, August 21, 2004

So this is what happened since Thursday:

On Wednesday night I told my brother that I would go, but then he went to bed and then I kept thinking that I shouldn't so then I decided not to, so I was going to leave a note on his door before I went to bed, but then I went to bed and accidentally fell asleep right away and then Tim woke me up at like 8 the next morning and he was like all excited about going so I didn't want to disappoint him so I just left my mom a night saying what to say to John if he phoned and a PS saying GO THERESA SOKYRKA. And she's safe, so that's awesome. And ELoser is gone, so that's even better.

So then we drove the car up to the bus stop and then parked it and got on the bus to the ferry and went on the ferry, then we got to Tsawwassen and had to take like 50 more buses before we got to Martha's house, but then we did. And then I put my stuff upstairs and went outside to play with Hannah & her friends because Martha was at work. But then that was boring so then I went for a walk with this guy named Tyler who was a loser.

And then me and Tim and the kids went to the library and I read some more of "Charlie Bone and the Time Twister" which I was reading at Royal Oak but then I had to return it for the summer and I haven't gotten to read any of it since but I found it there and I read it, and I made friends with this 12 year old chinese girl named Irene, and I got her to read the first Charlie Bone book "Midnight for Charlie Bone" which I have read and so has Sandy, and she took it out. Sandy's read all of them.

So then we went to the park for a little while, and then went home and I watched Canadian Idol, all of it, so I was glad. The group song was pretty cheap, though! Lol, Theresa and her mandolin.

And then I phoned Jonathan. When I told him I was in Vancouver he was like "Damn! I wanted to do something." which I totally KNEW was going to happen if I went, the magic fortune telling penny told me so. And then he said that I was in Vancouver perpetually and I wa slike shut up! He even phoned my house in Victoria at 7pm, which is EXACTLY when the penny told me he was going to. I didn't listen to it. I seriously will next time. Stupid me. Never underestimate the power of the fortune telling penny, seriously. You'll regret it.

So anyway, I said about how I didn't know if he was going to feel the same when he came back and he's like "You got my number. I couldn't ditch you now if I tried, and I don't want to." like he meant that if I hadn't have gone up to him at the mall we never would have happened, because he didn't see me at the mall, he had his back turned. Not purposely, and besides, I was on the other side leaning against the wall! So then I was like "Why not?" and he's like "Because." and I was like "Because what?" and he's like "Because I like you. A lot. Whole bunches!" so then I laughed because I love it when he says retarded things like that. So I said about how ELoser got kicked off, and then I said about how I was trying to be okay even though it wasn't good (him leaving) and he's like "I think it's okay, and good...except for the HORROR of someone being voted off Canadian Idol." and I was all like shut up it wasn't horrible it was good. But then he said that he promises we'll do something in the first two days that he's here in December. He says that when he comes back we'll pick up where we left off. And then just before he had to go I asked him what person he was to me and he's like "Well I don't know, why don't you tell me?" and I was like "I asked you first" and he's like "Well, I counter-asked your first asking with a second asking" and I was like "That's not fair!" and he's like "Yeah well, LIFE'S not fair, get used to it" and I was like "Well, what if I counter asked your second asking with a third asking?" and he's like "You can't do that. It's against the rules." and I was like "The rules of what?" and he's like "The rules of counter asking and asking twice!" which I thought was just SO retarded, but it was funny. So then I was like "Well then, maybe I'll just tell you what I HOPE you think of me as" and he was like "Okay, what do you HOPE I think of you as?" and I was like "I hope...that you think of me as your...girlfriend" and he's like "I do...and I hope that you think of me as your...boyfriend" and I was like "I do." so then he had to go and then I was crying.

But then the next morning (Friday) I got up and went to Playland and went on rides and stuff which I'll tell you about tomorrow and then went home and went to sleep with Hannah in her room. Martha told me to phone Jonathan to see when he was leaving on Saturday because I forgot to on Thursday night but when we got home it was way to late because we mised the bus.

And then Tim woke me up this morning (Saturday) and was like "We have to leave...in like 20 minutes." so then I was totally like well get me the phone because I won't have time to phone him at our house so I phoned John at like 8:45 and it was so funny because we had both just woken up so we couldn't really talk properly and then he kept pretend snoring in the phone at me so I was pretending to be mad even though I wasn't and then I was downstairs and then I was hitting Tim with a pillow because he was making fun of me so then I went and sat on the stairs and I was saying about how he might totally like forget and he's like "Like I could forget you!" and I was like "Why not?" and he's like "You're too memorable." and I was like "How?" and he's like "Because, you're completely nuts and you yell at people on the streets!" so then I went back upstairs and I saw Hannah's poster of all the Disney Princesses and I told John about it and I was like "Which one is your favourite?" and he's like "What a stupid question I am SO not answering that!" and then I was like "NO, tell me" and he's like "That's dumb, let's move on!" and I was like "Okay fine then, there was something I wanted you to say, but whatever, if you're too dumb then that's fine!" and then he was like "Okay, what are my options?" and so then I told him and he was like "I'm not answering the question unless you're one of the options" and so then I was like "I don't have to be." and so then he's like "They're all second to you" which was TOTALLY what I wanted him to say so I'm glad he got it.

And then I was like "But I totally messed it up last time, when I said that stupid thing at the end" and he's like "Well, there was a lot of stupid things, which one?" and I was like "You're SO mean!" and he's like "I'm kidding!" so then I was like "That one that I wouldn't say what it was and I accidentally said it was something else, you know what I'm talking about?" and he's like "Yes." so then I was like "BUT there's no point in talking about it because you don't even care!" and he's like "Yes I do." and I was like "No you don't!" and he's like "Yes I do. I'd show you, but I don't think I can exactly do that right now, if I could then I'd prove you wrong, you can hold me to that promise next time."

And then I said about how I have no significant item of rememberance and he was like "Name your new locker after me, and I'll name my new locker after you" and I was like "Okay, but what are you gonna say to your friends when they ask you why you're talking to your locker?" and he's like "They won't ask, they already know that I'm completely nuts" so then I was like "So what are you gonna say to them when they ask you what you did?" and he's like "I'm gonna be like...went to the mall, bought video games, played video games, went to Whistler, met gorgeous women and got them out on dates!" and I was like beh how freakish! And then he said about how he liked me more and I was totally like no you don't and then I was like "I still don't get WHY you like me, I don't get what you see" and he's like "Because you're you"

And suddenly I was like "In Ukranian, Sokyrka means 'Little Hatchet' " and he was like "Wow, that was random." and then he said "I've got something to give you. It's in England, I've had it for ages, I've been saving it...and it's something that I think you'll really like" and just before we got off the phone he's like "You're very precious to me" and that made me be like oh my god. And then he had to go. And then I went too. But then we missed the 11am because I was on the phone and Martha was being dumb or something and John was leaving at like 2pm or going on the 2pm plane or being at the airport at 2pm to get a plane, he had no idea, he was too tired to make sense. He said he cared because he was tired. He also said he cared about me and my stomache ache.

I don't think it'll be THAT long till December, only like 111 days. And then there's school and stuff, so it'll be fine. Gary Beals' album is out, and he will be on CI next results show, FYI.

Thursday, August 19, 2004

Results show time, finally! They do the intro stuff, then it's the idols playing instruments. So first we get Jason on guitar, and it's some railroad song that I have forgotten. Kalan is fiddling (violining?). Theresa has a mandolin. Elena on keyboard. Jacob looks real comfy with his gee-tar. The audience starts clapping, Aus Idol style. Oh, there's Shane with a guitar..did he get to sing yet? Did I forget to mention that they were singing? Um. Ok, now Shane sings. After Kalan and before Jason (with his new deep voice and accent aimed at keeping the easterners voting). Shane is pluck-pluck-pluck at his guitar, but Jacob faces Kalan like they were doing duelling banjos.

Ben's t-shirt looks old and faded, kinda like Mr Lightfoot who comes on the stage and babbles his gratitude. He looks all happy though. Yay for Canadian Icons!

Break. Then Ben yabbers, then the judges say how they like their musical idols, and Farley is on about Starsearch moments. Sass likes everyone, but Zach seems to have changed his mind about something after he saw the show on telly. He isn't saying what though. More ads now. Then, Billy! YAY!!!

Back with a montage of Billy from last year, with "If You Could Read My Mind" playing. Billy version. How clever! Then he comes on and sings that Waiting for the Sun to Shine song from his cd. Title? Um. Ya know, that one. He dances about and yells a lot and the crowd screams and his band looks very old (where are ya Benny??) and boy, does he sing a long version of this song. Then Ben comes on and hands him a towel (Ryan and Ruben, anyone????) and they both keep talking at the same time. Hee! Then I remeber Billy is better if he doesn't talk too much. Billy goes away and hits Ben on the head with the towel on his way out.

Break, then back with Jon Dore being so dumb I am not wasting the time to type it up. Just not funny.
Finally, the idols are on stage. They show the Queens' U guy as usual. They all yabber. Then we get a Debra Byrd montage, where they all say how great she is and I notice that when Shane speaks, he sounds like a little girl. Byrd is in the audience, having a cry. Perhaps we are eliminating her instead this week.

The judges all agree that Elena will be sent home. Then we suddenly switch to the idols and Ben is recapping the judges' comments from last night, but nobody is being told if they are safe.They all look a bit worried, except Shane, who laughs as usual. Hmm. More ads, then we find out.

Oh and it's rapid-fire. Kalan-safe. Jacob-bottom 3. Theresa-safe. Then Ben does some weird thing, so I start out thinking there are 4 in the bottom 3, or maybe 2. Elena and Shane are the other two.
Zach complains about regional voting. Does that mean you, Jason? Zach also says Jacob shouldn't be there. Jake would send Elena back to safety.
Oh no! Shane is safe. Jacob and Elena. They are both going to sing their songs. I bet Jacob goes home, Zach was mad like this when Kaleb got the boot. They sing, but I don't wanna listen. I hate that version of Sundown, and I have to wonder if he did it on purpose. Weird.

Finally...Elena is out. That was too close.The Queens guy holds up a sign that says "robbed". Had that with you all the time in case you needed it, did ya? Shuddup, Queens' guy. Hope we don't see you again.

A bit of a chat, then another sing out. No tears till after the song, then they all fall to peices as usual, and it's mad hugs all round, including for Jabob, who is still there! Like Billy said, coming in third is good. I hope Jacob gets that far. This wasn't a nice results show. Except no more Elena. It was a great results show!
Byeee! (from your Thursday CI stand-in).

Top 6 show - Gordon Lighfoot Night (Who rocks)

Whoa, scary people outside the John Bassett Theatre much. Good, now we're inside. Hey, Ben, sup. Yes Yes, Kalan will win, shut up! It's not a REAL competition now that Kaleb's gone!! Sorry. Yes, I know what it feels like to lose my favourite, and I AM a fan of Kaleb Simmonds! Elena. Jason! Jacob! Shaney! Theresa! Kalan! That is the order they shall go in. Judges: Jake...ooh new suit! Beh, Farley. Sass looks cool. Beh, Zack's shirt looks like Kalan's from British Invasion night. Oh no wait, it looks like Josh's suit from his elimination night. Well, it's a jean jacket, but it sort of has the same material. Whatever. Now Gordon Lightfoot background thingy. He almost died. Wow. My favourite song by him is "Sundown". TWOP say Kalan is singing that. He better do good with that. He's in the audience. He seems to find it hard to stand up. Poor Gordon.

Elena Juatco - "Early Morning Rain". She's sitting on the stool of seriousness. She looks different. I can't hear her very well. Oh, there we go. This is a good song. She yodelled, which I like, but it was still just okay. That's a compliment from me. Jake says it was captivating. Farley says a few weaknesses, but he agrees with Jake. Sass says she was impressed by...something or other, I wasn't listening. Zack says he had no issues with it. In other words, it was okay, like I said. Ben says it was pretty. Meh, I guess. Ugh, your lines suck Ben! "If you could read my mind, you'd know we have to take a break now"? Seriously. I wonder who's going to sing that song? Maybe Jason. That would be a good Jason song.

So anyway, like Ben said, commercials. The stupid landlord came to the house right when Elena came on so I almost missed the song title, not that it matters that much except that I need it for this recap and my number list that I have beside me. Back. IT'S LOU!!! LOU PAMONTI PLAYS THE PIANO IN THE INTRO CLIPS!!! I missed that guy SO much, it's so awesome to see him! I was so sad after the top 32 ended, I thought I'd lost him forever!

Jason Greeley - "Rainy day people". I'm a rainy day person, he's singing about me! Ha, I wish. But what he's singing is true, that IS what rainy day people are like, I love being one. This is a cool song, too. He's good, he's singing deeply. In both ways, voice and emotion. He's cool! Farley says perfect song and comfort zone. Sass mumbles something about next time but great job! Zack says it looked like Jason was uncomfertable he found it really b-b-b-b-boring. Jake says Zack is confusing boredom with comfort. I agree. GO JASON GREELEY!

Commercials. Jacob Hoggard up next. Whoa, that guy looks like John Michael from WB Superstar. Air wick, eh? Sorry. Lol, diet pepsi van. Mmm, excel mints. My mint moment would be to go out with Jonathan and make it so that he didn't have to leave. Back.

I don't WANT to see the losers in the streets and Jon Dore! Who names their kid, Tyson? Stupid name. Unicorn parks and sugar before bedtime. Right.

Jacob Hoggard - "Sundown". OH MY GOD!! DON'T mess this up, Hoggard, or I will seriously kill you. He's singing it too low. He sings "Sun" too low, it's meant to be higher, I should know, I listen to this song all the time. Now he's singing it okay. He's wearing a little too much makeup, but he stepped up near the end in his rock thing. I feel that there are some songs that can't be rocked and need to be sung in their regular way, but whatever, it's Jacob. Sass liked it. Zack said it sucked, but he's glad Jacob tried to sing like him. Jake says it's a different version than usual. Okay, then. Did Farley just say he stinked? Lol Ben. Ew, how gay, Jacob just...never mind. He was better last week. I think I would have liked it if Kalan sang it, but whatever.

Commercials. The stage backdrop looks different than ususal, it's more...red. Family plan from Rogers Wireless. Beh, wine gums. NOW I get that advert! Home hardware. Beh, put a cloud in your shoe, right. Wal-Mart...3 Musketeers. Okay, then. I really hope Theresa and Kalan bring some good to this show, because it hasn't been that great so far. Beh, Ronnie Hawkins. CTV News @ 6. Back.

Shane Wiebe - "The way I feel". NOW I know who he looks like, TRAVIS from RFR, of course! They look exactly the same, except Travis has slanted eyes and blond hair, but the faces are identical. Sorry I'm not commenting on the performance much, but there's not much to say. Ooh, yodel. Nice. Ooh, another yodel, even nicer! Ooh, yet another one, he's on a roll now! He looks sad. But it looks like he started shaving again, so props to him on that one. He is HOT! Zack says it was a really lovely performance on Shane's part. Jake says Shane can sing anything. Okay. Farley says...a bunch of weird rhyming stuff about Wiebling and wobbling but not falling down. Beh. Sass says she's changed the way she feels about him. Song title, much? Ben says this is what Shane is like when he gets a little dirty. Beh.

Loreal clip. I hate fake tanning things. They're either for people who are too lazy to go out into the sun or who don't have time or who are sensitive. With the idols, I know which case it is. Commercials. I'm talking to my sister Melissa on the phone right now. Back. Ronnie Hawkins is in the audience, beh.

Theresa Sokyrka - "Song for a winter's night". She's been the best all night. Zack says her throat was better. I missed the other judges comments, sorry. I'm on the phone, like I said.

Commercials. Back.

Kalan Porter - "If you could read my mind". EEEEK!!! Sorry, I love this song. He is so SEXY! Rawr. He was awesome, once again him and Theresa were the best. Well last week it was him and Theresa and Kaleb, but shut up. The judges all liked it. Nuclear explosion...lol Zack. Lol Ben.

Recap: Elena Juatco - 1-866-9-IDOL-01 - "Early morning rain"

Jonathan's in Whistler right now. He's coming back on Thursday, I just talked to his grandparents about that. Like I KNEW he was in Whistler, because he told me, but I just wasn't sure what day he was getting back and when he was going back to England, but they told me: He's coming back to VICTORIA on Thursday, and going to back to ENGLAND...on Saturday. Yeah. That, honestly, sucks. It's just that I've barley even gotten to spend some...oh crap. Thursday. Saturday. That's when I'm supposed to be in Vancouver. Oh great, this is just SO friggin' GREAT, isn't it. I don't know what to do. This is probably going to be my ONLY time to go to Vancouver and Playland before school starts again, but it's definitely my LAST time to see and talk to Jonathan. DAMN IT! Why...does this...have..to happen...to me? Ugh. It's bad enough Kaleb's gone! I seriously don't know what to do.

Group performance...how much did we miss? stupid show must have started on time. Jacob looks um very good. Kalan still has the layered look. Elena tries to look snazzier than Theresa. She fails.

Jacob is making fun of Lionel Ritchie. Ha! LR has to run away to the other side of the stage. Judges look bored, except Jake, who is bobbing his head like the Geico lizard. Oh and they have the camera stuck right behind some girl, so all you can see is her head. Good audience management there, people!

[moan] Now LR sings his song that he wrote for his wife, though he could just go back home to her and his boys and quit impressing us with how emotional he is [/moan]

Break. My guess? Shane, Jason, Elena bottom three. Jason goes back first, Shane goes home. Can we just send Elena home now? She bores me.

Theresa...looks worried...but she's safe.

Jason...(please please please!)...safe. Gah.

Kalan...(smiley and chewing his lip)...safe.

Uh-oh. By the way, Ben looks like a hospital orderly tonight.

Kaleb...bottom three.

Shane...looks like he thinks it's him...smiley....and bottom three.

Elena and Jacob after the break. I like how they always leave Jacob till the end. Part of the MAP deal, maybe?

Jacob looks sad. Elena smiling. YAY! Jacob is safe.
Judges opinions...

Jake...wafffles. No clue what he meant.
Farley...step up, out, let loose, blah blah. Then they can yell at you for not doing what they liked before.
Sass...tells them to think about what they do. Thanks, teacher.
Zach...goes on about how good Kaleb is. Hmmm. Wonder if that was a huge hint?
Shane is safe. My my! Can't stand Kaleb, but I don't want him gone. He is at least a bit different.
Ads. Oreo cookies. I want some. Back.

OK, so it's Kaleb. Pity that. The others look kinda sad, except Kalan who is smiling like an idiot, but I think he just likes the sing-out. Well, I guess Kaleb can just go back to his band or whatever. And hopefully for his fans (like the webpage owner here) he can get a record deal BEFORE everyone is saying Kaleb who?
Next week..Gordon lightfoot. Poor Jacob!

Top 7 show - Lionel Richie:

Recap of Josh being eliminated, that was horrible. Kalan, Theresa, Shane, Kaleb, Elena, Jason! Judges intro. Josh is sitting beside Jacob's girlfriend. Now a Lionel Richie intro background thingy.

Kalan Porter - "Still". He was good, he stares so much like Jona and it kills me. Jake says it was his best on the show, Farley says he's a Sex Symbol Superstar. Sass says he's gone from good boy to dream boy. He was always dream boy to me. Zack said it was naked and real. Right. How freakish! Ben made fun of his shoes. I like Kalan's shoes! I also like his checkered shirt thing. It's hot. And it's a nice shirt. I hate Kalan's girlfriend, she's ugly. Well she's not, but still.

Commercials. Back.

Theresa Sokryka - "Hello". Whoa, she scatted at the end. That was different. She was awesome, she's so pretty I love her shirt! Good, Zack didn't yell at her. The other judges liked her, so that's good. Ben says he can scat. Theresa says she doesn't believe him. That is so me and Jona. What? Whatever, shut up.

Shaney Wiebe - "Angel". He was okay, I just wish he would shave again, he looks like a freak old man. Sass and Zack liked him. Jake says it was an uptempto song. It was NOT! Farley says Shane nailed it. Whatever! I just thought it was okay. Beh, Ben is being retarded.

Commercials. Back.

Kaleb Simmonds - "Truly". He yodelled and sang highly, I've been waiting for that for a LONG time, since "Tears in heaven". They judges all say he's amazing. Kaleb called Sass beautiful, that's so sweet I love him!! Ben says he takes longest to get to the stool. That's true, he does. Awww, Kaleb! Sorry.

Commercials. Back.

YES JON IS HERE! He's wearing his "Kiss the Dore" apron, I love that thing! He wore it on the clip in the group 3 results show. Now he's giving people burgers. And he has a stomache ache. Now they're rolling e clip. They're playing badminton or tennis, I can't tell. They're in the pool. They're making desert. Kalan makes a fish out of jelly. Shane makes a car. Jon makes a Canadian Idol sign.

Jacob Hoggard - "Brick house". I KNEW HE WAS GOING TO SING THIS! Sorry I didn't say. Lol he looks so freakish with his red leather sideways hat thing like mine and his weird shirt and pants, he's so funny! The judges hated him except for Sass. I loved him, he's got my vote!

Eloser Juatco - "Fancy Dancer". I knew that too. Holy crap, what is she wearing. She didn't suck as much as usual, but she still sucked. And that hairstyle? Not working for you, girl, sorry. And that belt? Ugly! And that skirt? Pretty cheap, too! The only good thing was her boots, but it kind of made her look like a s***.

Jason Greeley - "Easy". YES I LOVE THIS SONG! It's my favourite Lionel song.

Recap: Kalan Porter - 1-866-9-IDOL-01 - "Still"
Theresa Sokyrka - 1-866-9-IDOL-02 - "Hello"
Shane Wiebe - 1-866-9-IDOL-03 - "Angel"
Kaleb Simmonds - 1-866-9-IDOL-04 - "Truly"
Jacob Hoggard - 1-866-9-IDOL-05 - "Brick house"
Eloser Juatco - 1-866-9-IDOL-06 - "Fancy Dancer"
Jason Greeley - 1-866-9-IDOL-07 - "Easy"

I'm voting for Jacob and Jason and Kaleb and Theresa. And Kalan.

It's like 7:08pm and I'm just waiting for...I have no idea. Oh wait yeah, for Jona to phone. I talked to him earlier. For like 2 hours. It was cool. He said nice stuff to me. Like he was pretending he hated me and then he said he was kidding and then I was like "Well then what do you feel?" and he's like "I feel very much, it's undescribable" and then I said about how sometimes when people look at you you just feel something so, oh my god, and then I said about how when he looked at me and it was like oh my god. And then he was like "So you like it when people look at you?" and I was like "Yeah" in that kind of way and he was like "So who's your favourite person you like to have look at you?" and I was like "I think you know" and he was like "Yeah, I think I do too, but I just want to hear you say it" in that kind of way and so then I was like "Well...I think it's you" and he's like "That's what I was hoping...because if you had said your clarinet, I would've had to hang up on you" and I was like "I don't LIKE my Clarinet, she's my FRIEND!!" and he's like "Well, I don't know!" and I was like "Oh my god you think I'm one of THOSE people don't you?" and he's like "Nah, I'm just kidding" and then I was asking him again if he would find someone else and he's like "No, not unless it's like a really really hot model, or someone really rich" and then I was like oh my god and he's like "I'm KIDDING, seriously!" and then when I was going through my locker pictures he kept copying me and saying seriously because he says I say seriously a lot and I do, and that's also the reason why he said he feels very much even though that makes no sense because that's what I said. I just finished watching RRF, episode "Bad Boy" where Robbie pretends to be a gangster to impressed the new girl, who is played by Skye Sweetnam. It's about the 3rd time I've seen it, it's pretty cool.

I also asked Jona why he thought I liked him and he's like "Because you think you think I'm cute?" in that kind of way and I was like "Yeah" in that kind of way, if ya'll know what that way is. And then I was like "I'm just looking at my Canadian Idol poster, and some of the guys are really hot" and he's like "Is one of them me?" and I was like "No, I'm sorry" and he's like "Oh DAMN, that sucks!" and then I told him he was gay with himself and he said that's not even possible and then so I said that I thought he was gay and he said he wasn't so I was like "What's stopping you from being gay?" and he said me. And then I said about how if some guy asked me out like when I went back to school that I would say no I asked if he would do that and he said yes so I said why and he's like "Because you're here." And now CI is on so I'll talk more about what he said later.

I should seriously go to bed soon, BUT I don't want to, SO...I won't. I'm just sitting here on MSN talking to Sandy Lau, who is MY best friend in the WHOLE world, she's awesome, seriously, she's just the best, I can tell her anything. Now she's asking me how Calum is. He's a loser, that's how he is, don't ask why, I just don't care anymore. Oh, and I'm listening to THIERRY, as usual.

Jona phoned at like 9pm or after or something, but I was at the observatory writing out our names in Hieroglyphics because they had these stamp things with the symbols on them so when I saw it I freaked and spent like 50 hours there. Okay well, like AN hour, but whatever.

I love Jona. He's just so...different. And the other day when I got really nervous at the end because I was thinking about something, and I had my arms around my knees and my hair falling over my face so I couldn't see him and I had my face pressed against my knees and then without realizing I started rocking back and forth and it was disturbing him and so he kept nudging me and being like "Come on now, stop it, you're making me nervous" and then when I moved my hair out of my face he would be like sort of leaning over to look at me and then his eyes are so totally like blue and even though he wears glasses they're still like totally sparkling at me and it's just so...oh my god. We get along really well, like we laugh all the time and stuff, and usually when we try to make eye contact with each other we start laughing but that time it was just...like we actually looked into each others eyes and it was just like...whoa. Because his eyes showed that he like actually cared and it's just that I haven't seen that in a long time. And his caring seems to be and mean more than anyone else.

And it's really going to suck when he goes back but he's coming back in December so I'll see him then, and nothing's going to change, and all that matters is right now, and it's just so...wow. And it's just when I think about what I was thinking about before when I got nervous and if it actually happened and how it would be like oh my god and just everything to me. It happened with Jordan, but that means nothing anymore, and if it happened with Jona it would totally like I said mean everything and it would just make everything right and it would prove even more that this is fate, our fate, and it's meant to be, like he said.

This is a clip from my mom's day:

Title: Yuck-a-doo

Yuck-a-doo seems to be as good a way as any to start yakking when you are supposed to be cleaning up or feeding the Iggy or watering the plants, but since I just finished reading Becca's chatty-blog I don't feel at all like doing anything except nattering at nobody about nothing in particular.
Actually, I was going on the comp to see when the meteor shower was and when the Observatory ( which is like a gazillion times better than the Vancouver one, since that one is hardly ever open and when it is you can't see much except the trees) is open. Woah. Wordy sentence. But then she had too many things open and it wouldn't work (the comp, that is) so I started reading and waiting for the NEW! IMPROVED! SLOWER THAN DEAD SLUGS! Winamp to close. And the comp does this thing where if you actually sit in the chair for more than two minutes you can't get up again for possibly as long as four hours, or when someone comes downstairs and interrupts, whichever comes first.
So I have to put all my stuff away from going to Tsw for the weekend, plus tidy up whatever got left lying around, plus un-tidy up the stuff that Tinky put where I didn't want it put. Is there a reason the dead bushes have to be moved six feet and put right in front of my flower pot? Didn't think so. Do I have to keep the old flyers on the table with the new ones? Stuff like that.
Then I have to see what HIS reaction is to Marth's brother coming as well. Tinky decided against mentioning that. I so hate it when it is up to me to ask if something is ok AFTER the person is halfway here.
What I want to do is go to Elk because it is all nice and hot and I didn't get to go to the beach at the weekend, except with the dog who was trying to attack some giant poodle so we all had to leave. Uh oh. I hear a car, byeee!
-----------------------------------end of bub's cheap thing-----------------------

So, I'm back, from what might possibly be the greatest day ever. First we walked around in circles like 4 times, until he started saying about how he was immensely against circles, so then I called him a square, but then he said he was more of a triangle. So then we went and sat on a rock for like 3 hours. Seriously. It was so fun though, I was yelling at people in cars, and at first he was scared because he thought they would come and kill us and run us over with their trucks, but then he started doing it and then we were like to everyone that passed "K, let's stare at this person, see what they're doing" and then he would be like "That woman is wearing the ugliest dress I have ever seen" and he like insulted people's cars and stuff. And then this one time on the second rock I asked him if he liked her and he's like "She's got a nice butt." and I was like "WHAT?!" because I could not BELIEVE he had just said that and he was like "I'm KIDDING, you can't even tell from this angle!" and then I punched him and told him to shut up.

He was so nervous at first, like when we first sat down on the rock he kept picking up twigs and breaking them and stuff. I guess I wasn't as nervous as him because I've been through this before, which I told him. We made up this messed up thing about how he sat on a rock with a strange person because he had no friends. And every time we talked about that we would both go hysterical. And then I asked him well then why he was there, and he's like "Because I think you're cute" which was totally like oh my god, and then later when we were walking back into the market and holding hands he said he wouldn't want to be sitting on a rock with any other strange person but me.

He said he believes in fate, that things happen for a reason. And then I said about how freakish it was that we met again when we never thought we would, and he said "Tis fate" and then he said it again after for some reason.

And then when we went back to a payphone to phone my mom, I called him a loser, and he's like "Dork" and I was like "Loner" and he's like "Midget" and then I was like "Ignoramus, whatever that means!" and he's like "Loser Loner" because I had called him that earlier and he's like "I think I'm gonna have to hurt you" and I was like "Um you can't, you're too weak" and then he's like "I am SO insulted. I've been called a loser, and a dork, and maybe even a loner on occasion, but never a loser loner!" so that was really funny, he's hillarious, though he says I'm incredibly amusing.

He goes back on August 21, which he says is like 13 days. He's going up to Whistler a little while before then, though. I said to him like when he goes back, is he going to have someone to be around (that was my way of saying will he get a girlfriend) and he was like "Not unless I turn gay" and I was like WHAT are you talking about, and then he said he knew what I meant and no he wasn't going to. And then I was like "So does it have to end, like when someone goes away?" and he's like "You mean when I go back to England? No, not unless you want it to."

And then he was freaking out because there was a bee, which he said was a wasp but whatever, so then we moved to a different rock in the same grass bit. And he wouldn't sit ON the grass because then he would get his pants dirty and the grass is for lower class people like me, just like the other side of the street which he said I should go on because he hates me, joke, of course, duh, ya'll!

He says that Starwars is better than Canadian Idol, and that Startrek games were cool, and I said they sucked and to prove they were better, and he's like "I don't have to, because it is". And then we were talking about video games and he actually KNOWS what Shining Force is, and he's played both games and he said they're awesome, and they are, so that's cool. He said his cousin Aiden thought I was autistic! And I got so mad I was like "Um WHAT he thinks I'm like some retard kid?" and he's like "You can't call them retards just because they have mentally ill problems of communication!" and I was like "Yes I can!" and then he called my Diana Degarmo choker a dog collar, so I got mad at him.

And then some people went and sat near on the stairs which were a little bit aways from us, and then he got scared because he didn't want to be near some "drug taking acohol losers" as he put it, and he said they made him nervous. And then I said hot and he thought I said high. And then he said "You really DO have a speech impediment, don't you?" and then I hit him again and he's like "You can't hit me, I'll hit you back!" and I was like "You can't do that, you're not allowed" and he's like "Then why do you?" and I was like "Because I'm ALLOWED!" and then we were talking about rune and hieroglyph and stuff and he was freaking out that I memorized it and stuff, and he asked me if it was Latin or Greek and I was all like I don't know it's Roman you freak! So then he asked me how to do a Roman A and then he was mad because he didn't have a pen so then I just told him that it was like an English F but the two lines slanted downwards so then he traced it on his hand and was like is that right and I was like yes it is, and then he asked me what the tree in front of us was named, because he knows I name everything, and he's like "It looks like a Bob, but if you turn it upside down it looks like a roman A" and I was like beh he's interested! And then I was like "The tree's name is Shane Wiebe" and then I was like "Stupid Shane...get Manoah kicked off..." and then he laughed at me again. And then he started saying about something about the Elvish Alphabet and something about Arabic Alphabet and I said that thing that I always say and he's all like what does Arabic have to do with that and then I'm like Arabic is that thing that I always say and he's like okay whatever forget it you're dumb! And then I said about Calum and he said about Daniel and he said about how he sees him sometimes when he's at school and he says that he has his group of movie star followers always trailing him around and I said it's the same with Calum and then I said I hate Calum and then Jona's like "Bloody movie stars" and I was totally just like I know. And then he got scared of my hair scrunchy because it's black and fluffy and then he was backing away from it and he fell off the rock so I laughed at him. When we first got to our first rock I made a joke about Newfoundland, you know, being the rock and all. And he was like what.

We couldn't look each other in the eye, it was so funny, every time we did we'd start laughing. He said he calls his Chinese friends ****** and the East Indians ******* and I was like you can't do that that's so mean! And then I taught him about that thing that I always say and that other thing that I always say. And then later I said that it was easier to say than it was to say the other one, and I asked him to say it and he's like "Some sort of racial discrimination!" But then he got it right without me telling him that, so.

He said he'll call me tomorrow, I hope he does. Oh crap, I missed RFR. Oh well, I'll watch it tomorrow, it's probably one that I've seen before anyway. Oh yeah, that was something else that he did. When we were on the first rock he was like pretend crying about missing tennis and I was like "Oh yeah? Well I'M missing my favourite soap opera so shut up!" and then he laughed at me and he was like "Oh yeah? What's that about?" so then I went babbling all about it.

And then I told him about my website and he's like "You have a WEBSITE? Why do you have a WEBSITE?" and I said it was awesome and I couldn't live without it. And I asked him if he liked Hilary Duff and I said that I had like 30 posters of her in my room and he's like "You have POSTERS in your room?" and I was like "Yeah, I got some John Mayer, Clay Aiken, Kelly Clarkson even though she sucks, and I have this thing that says MICHAEL JACKSON IS THE BEST." and he said he believes Michael didn't do anything just like me, and then we were talking about Martha Stewart and about how I didn't think she should be in jail just for telling a lie and he's like "Well, lying's not a good thing" and then so I explained the situation and stuff to him, and then we were talking about CSI and Will and Grace and the Simpsons and Corner Gas and Simple Life and stuff. He says he's heard the name Lionel Richie before, but he doesn't really know who he is, and then we were talking about Celine Dion and Josh Groban and Glass Tiger and David Bowie and Richard Marx and Canadian Idol and Will Young being gay and he said he's not but I know he is because he told everyone and Jona said it's just publicity so I said shut up, like I always do, but he didn't care, like he never does.

And then I said about how Stephanie called me in the middle of Canadian Idol and he was all sarcastically like "Oh my god she DID? The NERVE of that girl!" and then I was totally all like "I KNOW!!" but he was just being dumb as ususal, so, and then I was all like "And she wanted me to phone her back but then KALEB SIMMONDS was coming on, like Kaleb Simmonds, man!" and then he was laughing at me again and I was like what's your problem you freak! Oh yeah and then when we were talking about Shining Force I said about how Patrick won't let me play SF2 because he thinks I'll break it so he hid it, and Jona said he probably doesn't even know where it is, and then I told him about how I can't play it so I download all the music and listen to it all the time and then he laughed at me again. I just finished listening to one, actually. The reason my mom's thing was callled Yuck-a-doo was because it stank downtown and she couldn't think of anything else to describe the smell so she was just suddenly like "YUCK-A-DOO! GROSSNESS!" and then we all went hysterical. And Jona thinks that a dink is a cross between a dork and someone who stinks. I thought fink, but whatever, it's someone that my bro Tim's best friend Nate said to him one time in Vancouver and my mom got mad.

I asked him if next time did he want to sit on a rock again and he said it's a little too public so he said he knows a place that's more private: the lake. That should be fun, except we can't sit on a rock and laugh at people! There will of course be rocks at the lake, and maybe people, but like he said, it's more privater. Or something. He said that loserish isn't a word.

And then he thought it was hillarious that I thought it was hillarious that people ripped my songs apart on IDF that I post. He said that the mere thought of me thinking it's hillarious is funny. He said that it was just the way I put it, or something like that.

Okay, I'm done now. Lots of people are here. Hi.

Um this is retarded my computer is being so slow! Sorry, I'm trying to be normal when all I'm really thinking is EEEEK!!!! I'm going out with Jonatan. In like 15 minutes. My mom's just getting ready because she's driving me up to "Broadmead Shopping Centre" to meet him there. I am SO freaked. The only thing I'm sure of is: My hair looks nice. I think. Ugh, this is so dumb! I'm not wearing makeup, so that's good, I have nothing to smear, no nail polish, so nothing to chip off, no lipstick, so nothing to get all over my face and look like a retard, so I'm good but I'm still a loooooooooooooosagirl!

He was actually there when I phoned him, and I had no idea what to say so I was totally just babbling about how Vancouver was a small China-Town or something and about how everyone just babbles ni Chinese so you have no idea what they're saying and he said maybe I should learn Chinese or something retarded like that! Beh!

I'm wearing like a billion tons of purfume, but that's just another one of my trademarks, so there's nothing I can do about that. I think I'm good. On the way there I'll think of what to say. Um it would totally help if I knew where my mom was, she's my ride! The phone's ringing. Sorry, not answering, got plans.

I have to go now!! I'll tell everything when I get back. I. Am so. FREAKED! As you might have heard already.

This is so messed. I have a stomache ache again, and this time it's from drinking milk. Seriously, I had like, maybe two small glasses, and I can't take it. I seriously cannot even drink milk without having some freak problem. So now it's like 9:46am and I'm getting Fefe Dobson's new song "Don't go (boys and girls)", which is cool, but I'm totally not sure what it's about, and if it's what I think it's about, then it is so not cool.

I've been in Vancouver since Friday. Well actually, this is how it went:

Friday:

I got up, got dressed and stuff, then my mom and dad went to the bank, so I phoned Jonatan, but his grandpa said they went to the eye doctor and then to Hillside Mall or something. Is that all he ever does, like, go to the mall? Like seriously, you come over here from England, you can do all this stuff, but no, you go to the mall. Right. So anyway, he said he'd get him to call me back, but I knew I was going to Vancouver, so it wouldn't be any good, but I didn't tell him that, I just wanted to see if Jona would actually call, because he didn't last time. So then I went on the Ferry to Tsawwassen to my grandparents house, then at about 9:30pm we went to the airport to pick my brother Patrick up from Quebec, and then we met my sister Teresa and her boyfriend there (Trevor Nelson), so then while my mom and Nana were at the luggage part thinking he would come there, maybe out of the shoot or something (joking), me and Teresa and Gandy went around the arrival part and then he came out and I got to him first and he gave me a big hug, which is so weird, because I haven't hugged Patrick for like, years. Well actually, I did when he left for Quebec like 5 weeks ago, but that was just like some one armed thing like I did with Calum on the last day of school. Well, with Calum it was a bit more, but I won't go into that. Rawr. Sorry. Anyway, Patrick was totally all like tired because he had to spend 12 hours at the airport in Quebec, and then like 5 hours on the plane, so. So then we got back to the house and just sat around and then I went to bed because I was tired because we were at the airport for like 3 hours because his luggage took so long to come.

Saturday:

In the morning (well it was like 12:30pm but whatever) my brother came into me and my sister's room and like threw himself on the bed and then woke us up (well I was sort of already awake, but whatever) so then we all laid there and talked for a little bit, and then I went upstairs and had breakfast, and then we went to the stores and stuff, and I got yet another fake hair thing, I have like 6 (hey, it's my trademark!) and this one was like a reddish-orange one with braids coming out at the bottom and hair at the top, it was sort of the same colour as my hair was when I first dyed it, it sort of matches, but ya'll should see my other ones, I have like a black bun one with curls coming down at the front and like little sparkly stars attatched to them (the one that I was wearing when I saw Jona at the mall the second time), one with just braids with beads and stuff on them, a red fluffy one, which I think is my favourite, and a blondish-brown one that's just like a curly bun thing. So then anyway, after convincing my mom to come with us, Trevor came over to my grandparents house to pick us up, and we went into Vancouver for the Fireworks down at Kits beach, which we used to go to all the time when I lived there. I've been back to the beach and pool and stuff there once in grade 6, but I haven't been to the fireworks since the end of grade 4, so that was cool, except afterwards it felt like I should go into the parking lot and get into the brown/white multi (we had both) with Mum and Patrick and Teresa (And maybe Timothy) and then just drive back to our house on East 28th Avenue, which of course isn't there anymore, because they knocked it down to build some ugly purple Ching house, but whatever. So then it was kind of sad, but still, we got the see the Polynesian dancers at Showboat (Jerrica Santos from Group 3 CI is one, but she wasn't there because she lives in Surrey, but she might go there sometimes because she likes to perform and that's the best place, but I don't know!), which we used to go to all the time too, it's all in the same place, Kits is a really really big place, it's got like a beach, a pool, a park, showboat, grass, concession stands, like everything, it's awesome. So then after that we walked over to the Vancouver Observatory, which my mom says is cheap and that the one here is better, but whatever, she doesn't like Vancouver anyway, she always pretends that she never lived there. And then we went past the Vancouver Maritime Musuem, which she says is cool. And then after we walked back to the car, and then drove back to T & T's place (Teresa and Trevor) and then I slept downstairs in Dustin's room or something, which smelled like the playhouse at my Vancouver house, which is like all musty which is SUCH a good smell, seriously, I love it, it's also like the smell of my sister's old room in the Vancouver house, but the playhouse smell is bettter, so that was good. It also smelled like the suitcase my brother used to go to Quebec, which he said smelled disgusting, but I disagreed.

Sunday: So we got up, had breakfast and stuff like that, and then went up to Ladner Market, in Ladner. And then after that we went back to my grandparents house, and then had dinner, and then we went back on like the 9pm ferry, so then there were no messages on the machine, so I was like totally all POed because I thought Jona didn't call, but then I ran upstairs and asked my dad if anyone called and he's like "Yes. Your 18 year old boyfriend phoned". And I was like um he's 16 but whatever! So then I'm going to call him this morning sometime, I'm just talking to my sister Melissa right now, and looking at my website's front page, and listening to one of my burned Thierry CD's.

I think I'm gonna go now, because my stomache hurts, and stuff. Oh BTW, my mom did the recap on Thursday the other night because I was watching the first two unseen-and-never-will-be-seen-again episodes of Radio Free Roscoe in a different room, and then I watched the tape after the show, and I was SO POed because I voted for Josh all night and now it seems like such a waste, but it's really not. They were all crying except for stupid pathetic loser ELENA, who was smiling, I hate her, she's such a bitch. It was so sad though, I got Josh's video from the other night and I watch it like every 5 seconds, it rocks. I've offered my mom a full time results show recap job, and she said that if she's allowed to just take notes on paper during the show, then type up the results afterwards, she'll do it, so the results will be, from now on probably, up at about 8:40 or so, if that's okay with ya'll, which it should be, because it's only about 10 minutes later. I love her recaps, they're so funny! I know you don't get to know what I think, but you guys should know who I want to go home by the performance show recaps, which will still be done by me, and just in case ya'll aren't clear on who I hate, I'll post it at the end of the recap, mmm-kay?

Group number...Old Time Rock and Roll...We Will Rock You...I love Rock'n' Roll...and they are all way way WAY better than last night. Theresa looks more rockier even. Wow...2.2 million votes last night...no wonder I couldn't get through. Half of them are still wearing last night's clothes. Well not the girls. And Jason lost Brandy's hair net, or whatever that was he had on last night.

After the break, we are running a Lionel Ritchie ad. Booo! Oh now John Dore time. Now he has a wig and looks like a total hippie freak. Playing guitar. Ok.

Then he does a "photo shoot" with the idols. Um...ok.


Elena....looks ok...she is in the bottom three.

Kaleb...safe...looks like he knew it.

Kalan...looks tired...he's safe!

Jason...looks a bit worried...but he is safe too!

Josh...not happy...good reason, bottom three.

Shane, Jacob, and Theresa ...after the break. My guess? Thesresa bottom three, and first back to the couch. And Josh goes home.

Shane...laughing...Jacob..worried...Theresa..smiling.

Shane in the bottom three. Uh oh.

Zach is dissin' glory notes. Yay!
Sass wants Elena back on the couch.
Farley loves Jacob.
Jake ..I think wants Elena safe.

Blah. Elena safe. Josh still looks sad, Shane is trying to jolly him along. Guess Josh likes that mansion life! Stupid ads again.


Oh my. Josh goes home. He looks so um...like he is about to go all Manoah on Ben. I wonder how much they hate singing the song that nobody liked when they have to leave? Shane is crying. Jacob too, I think. In fact, they all look really upset, except Kaleb. Big hugs at the end. Awww. Such a sad song to go buh-bye on!

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.

Recap:
Jason Greeley - 1-866-9-IDOL-01 - "Proud Mary"
Shane Wiebe - 1-866-9-IDOL-02 - "I believe in a thing called love"
Josh Seller - 1-866-9-IDOL-03 - "Iris"
Theresa Sokyrka - 1-866-9-IDOL-04 - "Piece of my heart"
Kalan Porter - 1-866-9-IDOL-05 - "Paint it black"
Jacob Hoggard - 1-866-9-IDOL-06 - "Everything"
Elena Juatco - 1-866-9-IDOL-07 - "I just want to make love to you"
Kaleb Simmonds - 1-866-9-IDOL-08 - "You ain't nothing but a hound dog"

I'm voting for Josh, BYE!! I'll be back tomorrow for the results!

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.

Now all the girls. Elena looks retarded. Manoah looks awesome, so does Theresa. Oooh, Elena likes Shane! Manoah and Jacob and Kalan. Rawr, Kalan.

Jason and Kalan and Kaleb. Now Jason and Shane and Theresa and Jacob and Josh. Now Jacob and Manoah and Kalan. Now all of them. Fireworks flying from all directions! It's done.

Judges intro. Sass looks the same as last night. So does Jake. Beh look at Farley's shirt! Recap of last night. Flash of all contestants. Jacob. Theresa. Lol Jason. KALEB! He didn't improve his look, Ben, it sucks. Elena. Go Sass, she insulted her! Josh. Manny! Rawr, Kalan! Beh, Shane. Cheap! Now another flash of all of them. Results...after the break.

Commercials. Someone called Jacob gay on MSN today, and they ARE gay themselves, so I got mad and told them that just because they were sick of being the only gay person around didn't mean that they could call other people gay who weren't.

Back. MIKEY BUSTOS!! Is in the audience. Lol Jon is coming out. He's dressed like a tennis player. The idols went to a tennis tournament. They sing the anthem. Calm down, Manoah. Now they're all throwing balls. Now they all get a special VIP view of the game from the presidents box. Now Jon is playing against the #1 players or something. Jon stole a ball so now a player is coming after them all so they run away. Results now.

Jason Greeley...I like his shirt...he's safe YES!! Kaleb...looks freakish and...is in the bottom 3 oh crap what do I do. Jacob...looks incredibly hot and...is safe!! His hair looks awesome. Kalan...his clothes don't match but whatever he still looks hot and...is safe YES!!! Josh Seller...his hair is re-curled he looks so much better...is safe YES!!! Josh, calm down, jeez. Shane...who also looks incredibly hot...his shirt is really nice...he's in the bottom 3. Elena...who still looks retarded but must be safe...and is. Manny and Theresa are left. And we find out who's safe...after the break.

A Bratz movie? How stupid those things are retarded! I can't believe Kaleb is in the bottom 3, he better be safe. I don't want either Theresa or Manny to be down there. Me and my mom both think it's gonna be Manoah. My laugh is so freakish because I'm sick. Whatever. My throat hurts again, I think because I'm nervous but I'm trying to forget Kaleb's down there even though I know it's true so I can't.

Back. Overview of both of them...Theresa looks so nice...her and Manny are holding hands. Now they're laughing really hard, and I don't know what at. I think at what the judges said last night. Lol, Manoah. The last person in the bottom 3 is...Manoah, I knew it. Now we see what the judges think. Jake says not enough votes is the reason why they are there. Farley says that Canada made a mistake. I don't know what Sass said. Zack says a whole lot of nothing, as usual.

The first person back is...KALEB!!! Yes! Now Manny and Shane are the bottom 2. The 2nd person to be eliminated is....going to have to wait till after the break.

Please be Shane, please be Shane, please be Shane! I like him and all, but Manny was better last night. They both got in in group 4.

Back. The person eliminated is...Manoah. So much for the Mannies. Oh crap, she's crying. A look back at Manny's journey. It's showing a clip of her crying in the top 100 while she's crying right now. Manoah says never give up no matter what critics say, because sometimes they're wrong and she think she still has to prove that. Now she's singing us out with "Sweet Dreams". Now they're all hugging Manoah. Oh good, I didn't run out of tape. Now Shane can't be in the finale, because every idol season, the two final contestants always got through in the same group for the top 32. Which means that Josh was with Brandy, and she's gone, so he's out of the finale, and the same with Shane and Manny. Next time is Rock and Roll, I'll be back next week.

Top 9 show - British Invasion:

Jacob Hoggard - "Space Oddity". When he first came out you couldn't even see him, he was sitting in a chair backwards, and then he turned it around and stood up, and he was holding this cape overhimself, and then he threw it off and I was like "Oh my god" I just totally had my hand over my mouth because he was wearing this freakish shiny blue space suit thing and it slit down the front and he was wearing like all this bling bling and he had like dark blue eye shadow on and all this black mascara!! He looked like such a freak! He was doing it like David Bowie or something, but David Bowie looks like such a freak! I think he sang good, I couldn't really hear it because someone phoned saying my brother had got a $500 scholarship with them or something but he's in Quebec, so.

Theresa Sokryka - "There's a kind of hush". I have something to say about her that I've never said before: I've actually liked her this whole time but I've lied and said I didn't. Don't ask me why. But she was awesome, the judges hated it. Zack started yelling at her for choosing a crappy song and she's not used to them saying bad stuff about her so I yelled at him.

Jason Greeley - "Saturday night's allright for fighting". I LOVE JASON GREELEY!! He does great at Elton John songs and he's so funny with his bouncing he's like George Huff only better! Zack said he wants him to quit it with his bar performing and he wants to see who the real Jason is, and me and Jake and Farley were all like "This IS who he is"!!!

Kaleb Simmonds - "If I saw you in heaven" or "Tears of heaven". I can't remebmer the exact title but I know it's by Eric Clapton. I LOVE THIS SONG!!! And I love Kaleb!! Except he had on this freak ching hat and then he took off his hat in the middle of the performance and he has no hair anymore!! Well he does but it's like almost all gone he got rid of it all it's freakish he looks so bad! But he was SO amazing it was SO sweet!!

Elena Juatco - "The first cut is the deepest" by Cat Stevens. Both Cat's and Sheryl Crow's versions were WAY better. Elena was cheap. Sass said it was awful and Zack said it was bad. For once Zack says good stuff.

Joshua Seller - "Where the streets have no name" by U2. This was his audition song. His hair is like all straight now and it like totally sticks up at the back it's freakish he looks so bad!! But he was cool and he didn't mess up the words this time like he did in his audition, so that was good. The judges liked him a little bit.

Manoah Hartmann - "Sweet Dreams". I forget who it's by, but I'm sure ya'll know and I LOVE THAT SONG!! Manoah did SO great, like Ben said she was totally the SPITTING image of Gwen Stefani with her hat that covered her eyes and her pink-blond hair and her pinstriped suit. The judges hated her and Zack said that it's her time to go home, but I hate him for saying that because it's NOT going to happen, she came WAY too close to it last week and I won't let it happen again! I didn't start the Mannie's for nothing.

Kalan Porter - "House of the rising sun". This was HIS audition song too! But he was WAY better this time. And he does so great with his long/loud notes that he always does! And he's starting to be like Clay Aiken with his staring hotly at the camera at the end, in the I want you kind of way which I will NOT explain right now because I don't think he'd appreciate it because I DON'T think that a guy like him thinks that way. He's in a string quartet, for freak's sake.

Shane Wiebe - "Something about the way you look tonight" by Elton John. Pretty cheap! Seriously, Shane is not cool anymore unless he steps up! He was cool last week, but if anybody picked a bad song for tonight, it was him. Gary Beals OWNS this song, man, and I'm talking about GARY BEALS.

I'm sorry it wasn't up right after the show but my computer was down and plus I'm really really sick so it's hard for me to get up off the floor let alone sit at the computer and type out some whole thing, but I knew I had to get it up, I can't let ya'll down.

I'm voting for Kalan right now and sometimes it's busy and sometimes it's not, but it's so hard because I have it leaned against my shoulder and my arms hurt from typing and pressing redial so I have to go now!!
