New Look and New 30 Days Challenge

How do you like my new theme? Looks very2 pretty and sophisticated and elegant with a dash of fun, right? I’m loving this theme very much. If you don’t like it, then keep it to yourself. Do not burst my bubbles whatever rocks my boat, alrighty? Don’t ask, yes, I’m writing in blockquotes because I just love the default italic fonts 😀

So, what’s up? Hmm.. American Idol and The Voice are now in season again.

Honestly, I kinda like The Voice more.

The people who came for audition are much better singers than those of American Idol, and seriously, Adam Levine and Blake Shelton are hotter than J Lo 😛 I can foresee that I’ll be posting quite a number of entries in relation to these two shows in the near future.

On a different note, I’d like to start another 30 Days Challenge.

HAHAH!!

I know I didn’t manage to complete the challenge last year, but all the more reason to do another one for 2012, am I right? Besides, I’d like to start blogging regularly like I used to and i think this 30 Days Challenge is perfect to get  my “engine” started. Of course the challenges won’t be the same as last year’s. I went googling around here is what I found :-

Day 1 – A photo of yourself and a description of how your day was.
Day 2 – A photo of something you ate today.
Day 3 – Your idea of the perfect first date.
Day 4 – Your favorite photograph of your best friend.
Day 5 – A photo of yourself two years ago.
Day 6 – A photo of an animal you’d love to keep as a pet.
Day 7 – Your dream wedding.
Day 8 – A song to match your mood.
Day 9 – A photo of the item you last purchased.
Day 10 – A photo of our favorite place to eat.
Day 11 – What’s in your makeup bag?
Day 12 – A photograph of the town you live in.
Day 13 – Your favorite musician and why?
Day 14 – A TV show you’re currently addicted to.
Day 15 – Something you don’t leave the house without.
Day 16 – Your celebrity crush.
Day 17 – A photo of you and your family.
Day 18 – Something you crave a lot.
Day 19 – Another picture of yourself.
Day 20 – The meaning behind your blog name.
Day 21 – A photo of something that makes you happy.
Day 22 – A letter to someone who has hurt you recently.
Day 23 – 15 facts about you.
Day 24 – A photo of something that means a lot to you.
Day 25 – What’s in your purse?
Day 26 – A photo of somewhere you’ve been to.
Day 27 – A picture of you last year and now and how have you changed since then?
Day 28 – Your favorite movie.
Day 29 – Something you could never get tired of doing.
Day 30 – A photograph of yourself today + three good things that have happened in the past 30 days.

😀

Easy-peasy, right?

I’m going to start Day 1 Challenge immediately after I published this post. I’m tipu-ing a bit coz I had to do it now while I’m still all geared up for it.

Anybody want to join me?

Scotty & Lauren made it to the final 2! Yippee!!!

I think I’m quite good at spotting talent owh hehehe.. kes perasan ni.. but I was never wrong in predicting AI winners since Carrie Underwood.. For this season, I did mention in this entry that Lauren Alaina is going to be in the final and in my previous post, I mentioned that Scotty may win this whole thing this year! I got the top twos right, kan?

And I still think Scotty will be the next American Idol.

Why?

Let’s look at the trend for the past 3 seasons. The best singer will always be the runner-up. Crystal Bowersox was the best last year, and she was the runner-up. Adam Lambert was the best singer in season 8, he was the runner up. David Archuleta was the favourite in season 7, but David Cook won. See??? The guy next door always win… Lauren is so talented, has a great voice and she can sing anything, no doubt she’ll always hit THE note, but Scotty? He’s the boy next door! He’s the kind of guy that Moms all around the world would approve of being their daughter’s boyfriend 😀 Like Beyonce said, he’s just so charming!

So, I’m rooting for Scotty. If Lauren wins this year, then it would be my 1st wrong prediction since Carrie Underwood… and I’ll take that.

Go Scotty!!

American Idol : Top 9 Result Show

The internet was down the whole morning so Little Bird didn’t get the chance to relay it’s news for me sooner.

As we all know, Pia was sent home.

Shocking!

I have already put Pia as one of the Top 4 in the Pearlie White contest so there goes my chance of winning tickets to the finals! 😀 macam lah bah dapat kan?

I personally think, Pia was eliminated because everyone thought everyone else are going to vote for her. She gave the best performance last night so it’s no surprise if people thought she’s going to get a lot of votes.

OR….

maybe the truth is that she was already nabbed by some big recording company – why waste time competing in this little singing competition? who knows, kan?

I’m guessing, Scotty McCreery is going to win this whole thing this year. To early to tell, I know, but now that Pia is gone, he might have a chance…

American Idol : Top 11 Result Show

Thia Megia, Stefano Langone and Casey Abrams were in the bottom 3.

Thia & Stefano made it another week.

Casey sang his audition song and the judges decided to use the SAVE.

There will be a double-elimination next week.

Mimi : Shocked! I thought Casey was one of America’s favourite!

American Idol : Top 12 Result Show

My little bird stopped by to give us the news and here is what little bird has to say…

Haley Reinhart is in the bottom three – again. That’s 2 in a row..

Naima Adedapo is in the bottom three.

Karen Rodriguez is in the bottom three as well.

America decided that Haley & Naima should stay another week. Karen sang for The Save, but the judges decided not to use it.

Good Bye, Karen Rodriguez

1. Scotty McCreery. (1 of my favs. Not a fan of his low voice tho but it’s interesting to see how he would progress in this competition.)

2. Lauren Alaina. (No surprise here.. And I don’t even like her performance yesterday.. )

3. Pia Toscano. (*Like*)

4. Karen Rodriguez. (Yeay!!! *Like*)

5. Jacob Lusk. (*LIKE*)

6. Casey Abrams. (*LIKE* ^ Infinity)

7. Thia Megia.

8. Paul MacDonald. (I have to click Like on Paul because he is so unique… just like Scotty, it would be interesting to find out how they would progress in the competition. *Like*)

9. Haley Reinhart. (The last girl who made it to top 5 girls. I prefer Naima or Lauren Turner to Haley tho… hope Naima will make it to top 12 via wild card round since Lauren didn’t even make it to wild cards.. bummer!)

10. James Durbin. (I might like him if he continues to give great performance like the one he did last Tuesday.)

There you go… Thanks Little Bird…

American Idol : Top 24 – The Complete List

Looks like Jacee Badeaux didn’t make the cut after all. well, actually we don’t know the whole story yet. Probably he made it, but he withdrew, i don’t know for sure. The other 21 contestants from my previous entry did make it to Top 24 though.

3 other contestants who manage to place themselves on Top 24 are:-

1. Stefano Langone

I like this guy.. Clicking on invisible LIKE button. *Click*

2. Tatynisa Wilson
I’m having trouble uploading her photo. Based on her Beatles performance, I thought she won’t make it. Perhaps she blew the judges away on her final solo performance..

3. Thia Megia

Another talented young singer. would be interesting to watch.
