I checked on my grades today too. I did really well, got an A in Sociology and ended up with a B in Anatomy and Physiology. I must have done pretty well on the final, or been really close to a B to end up with one. That was really cool to see. I have to send in my financial aid forms and then I start moving to the apt soon, my brother put the date my lease starts in his phone because he's going to be helping. It should be good, and if living myself is like it was this week I should be fine. My parents get home late on Sat night but I've been keeping myself busy and stuff. Maybe my mom would take me to the Idols tour since I did so well? She might go and my brother might go with me, that'd be pretty interesting...I am going to watch all the shows I taped for my mom, with her when my parents return, American Idol especially, maybe Ugly Betty and Grey's Anatomy too, but I'll enjoy watching this week's episodes of American Idol again. Loved the hometown visits and the performances were good too.

I finished my letter to David C and am going to send it out tomorrow. Hoping he gets it in time and actually reads it. I know he's going to be so busy, even after the show is over (ok so he made it), and with the tour...but I'm hoping he does read his fan mail and that my letter is somewhat interesting to him.
My brother came home this afternoon to hang out and also join me and my grandparents for lunch tomorrow, so that was nice to see him tonight. And I asked if he'd want to see the Idols Live tour, he might, so I'm going to check everything out. Maybe I would actually get to see the Idols in Philly and AC. We watched the results show together too, although he doesn't like David C...but it's cool. I loved the homecoming videos they showed (yeah, all of them), especially David's and loved his brother being invited up on stage tonight, this was a good results show as well. And it's been a good season, I've watched from the beginning and this is the first time I've done that. I definitely still remember the auditions, I remember a lot from the Hollywood week and beginning of the Top 24 to Top 20, etc. And this should be a good ending, wonder what they're going to do for the actual finale show next Wed.

keep voting!

But he looked so hot during that second performance. Loved the red flower in the guitar strings-this was one of the flowers sent from the word nerds on the american idol boards I believe. He just looked so good, I loved the hair, and the guitar...I have to go to the tour this summer and I have to get to meet him. I'd love to talk to him even for a couple of minutes, even just so he knows who I am and so I can tell him how much I like his music and stuff. I'm so sending that letter I'm working on. I wonder if letters can be sent but have to be postmarked by the 15th? He's going to be so busy anyway, what do they do after the show is over and before the tour? I have to keep reminding myself he's just a regular guy, and he's so sweet (wishing his mom happy belated mother's day, and saying hi)...
Now I'm so excited to see what American Idol shows of the hometown visits...oh, and does David have an iPhone? Loved that footage of him on Fox 4 in KC getting the text message from Simon. Can't wait to see more footage of him tomorrow. And see him on the show. I think this is bigger than when I liked Taylor on the show, I've voted for David a couple times and it's not even the finale yet. I so want him to win this thing now too. Only one more week, then I guess we all wait for the tour...

I just listened to David Cook's radio interviews, still have one more I haven't heard, and they were great. I loved all the pictures, videos, mp3s everyone posted on David Cook Day (May 9), and the days after that...I so want to go to the Kansas City show now...He seems so happy to be in the Top 3 and even to have made it this far, and so thankful to all of his fans. I'm going to write to him. Not sure when he'd get it and if he'd even read it, but I'll try. Someone on the american idol boards wrote to him back around the Top 24 time and just got a response back. He must be getting so much mail now! But at least I'll let him know a little about me and about one of his fans.
I work a lot next week, also planning to see my brother sometime this week, so I'll be pretty busy. I'll get to see all the tv shows too, Bachelor (yeah, haven't seen it recently but it's the final show), American Idol, Grey's Anatomy, Ugly Betty (usually watch with my mom), Desperate Housewives tonight...Oh, and I'm going to be sending out checks tomorrow for some David Cook bracelets and another for that fund they set up for his brother, I think the one that is going towards another flight out to Hollywood, or something like that. This is definitely the first time I'm sending money for an Idol contestant or their family, but it's a cool thing to do.

He must be having such a great time, he looked really good in the short parts of the videos I saw. Did some interviews, still has that parade, and the Royals game...I got some t-shirts to make for the tour too, so that should be fun. It's David Cook day! And now back to americanidol.com or my friends list for more updates. The parade starts at 3:30 CST, and I forget what's after that...oh, and two of the songs for next week were announced, looking like it will be a good week! Can't wait for Tues.

Tomorrow is David C's homecoming/hometown visit, as well as the other two in the Top 3, but I really want to go to his though I can't. I did check mapquest, it's about 18 hours from here. So if I wasn't working I could have driven through the night if I wanted to, but I'll see him on tour I guess. And this year I really want to meet him, it'd be cool to meet some of the others too, but I'll see if I can get to a venue early to meet him...I'm still thinking of writing to him, just have to figure out what to write, I wonder if he reads all the letters he gets?
I'm thinking about getting t-shirt(s) tomorrow after work to make for the Idols Live show. And I have an idea of what I want to put on it already too. Should be fun. I'd love to make a trip to KC or Tulsa or somewhere if that worked out, to see the Idols show too, maybe meet other fans...
David's hometown visit/homecoming
- May. 8th, 2008 at 5:01 PM
So want to be there tomorrow. Next time there's something like this I'll have to plan it. If I wasn't working I could possibly leave EARLY in the morning to get there by like 9...

How much fun would that be to stay in a hotel with other David C fans for his home town show? I'd love to go to that one! Have to check my school schedule, kind of sucks I'll start my graduate program in July when the tour is going on, but maybe I can go anyway, and it will work out. I just really want to go to see David this summer! Only like maybe 6 of the 10 going on tour anymore, but for the people I like it will be worth it. Season 5 was a lot of fun.

I guess I'll see him on the tour, or if he goes out and tours on his own after the show. I said this about Taylor when it was about this point in his season, and still haven't met him (I did see him live, GREAT show), but with David I hope to actually meet him. I loved that Beatles Love montage they showed of the idols this week, and I would have loved to be there too, but it was cool to see. And I'm thinking I wouldn't mind David C winning the whole thing, he does seem to really enjoy being there, and he wants to win...
I did think about him coming back to perform on upcoming seasons of American Idol. That's going to be so cool if they do it, having him perform for all these contestants who could be just like him right now...and I can't wait for next week to see what he does! I wonder what he's going to pick, what the judges choice will be, same with the producers...any ideas? Any thoughts on what he should do? I have no idea. But let's hope he (and the others) have a great time at home, enjoy it, come back and rock next week and then we have the finale! It went by so fast.
And I'm seriously considering writing to David C...I don't think I sent anything to any other idol during the American Idol season, so it might be a good time to do that. I did send something to Taylor but that was after the season was over. What should I write?

I'm completely done with sociology, and I just have a final left for anatomy and physiology. I'm going to see if I can find the people studying tomorrow, and I'll go over the stuff again tomorrow, and then I'm taking the final Thurs night. Really looking forward to being done with everything.
Second time I've actually voted for David C. Most of the time it was busy (on my cell phone), but just recently I got through every time for a minute or so. We'll see, he should stay around, and I REALLY want to go to his hometown visit...but I guess I'll have to go see him on tour, and visit his hometown eventually, and possibly see him perform after Idol...

And I keep checking my friends list for spoilers on American Idol tonight but they only have one for one contestant. Apparently David C is going to sing some song that is more rock, one he could do with the guitar and one without. Looking forward to his songs tonight and seeing what he and the others sing. Should be a good night. I like a lot of those songs from that Rock and Roll Hall Of Fame list, so we'll see. And I wonder who's going home...Is it going to be the three guys or will they have Syesha in there with two guys? Will it be a David C/David A finale? Probably if they both get through this week. We will see, I should vote...
Edit: Should I check the song spoilers list??

American Idol tomorrow, and it's a good theme. Really looking forward to it. And they sing two songs each. I like the Top 4, looking forward to seeing what they chose.

I've been studying hard for the past week or so, I can't wait to have my tests/final over with. Looking forward to my sociology class being completely done with tomorrow after the test. I was so looking forward to this day since the beginning of the semester when I first sat in this class, and here it is. Just need to get at least a B in the class and I should be good. And I'm doing really well with the anatomy and physiology, I should do well on our last test, and even the final. I just have to review my notes and stuff for that.
Someone's covering for me tonight, so I don't work until Fri, which does help with my studying. Maybe I'll do more final studying later this afternoon since I have the afternoon free.
I so want to go to David C's hometown visit this Fri (assuming he's in the Top 3), but I'm working, and I have my anatomy/physiology final Thurs night (I think?) so I couldn't get there anyway, but it'd be cool. Have to wait for the tour I guess. And if any of you want to meet up then or before then sometime, that'd be fun. I'd be up for meeting more fans. So that's about it, I'm also updating my iTunes since it got deleted when I tried something about a week ago, so I'm loading CDs on and importing them.

end of the semester

And speaking of him, if/when he makes it to the Top 3, I'd so love to go to his hometown visit. Except I'm working that Fri and wouldn't know who to go with, but it'd be a fun trip to take. Maybe Tulsa for the last AI show? Anyway...I'd really like to get to Blue Springs, they're actually already planning his visit and preparing for it. Anyone want to go with me? Are the Idol contestants still around in their hometowns that Sat? I could go then...
So that's about it, still working and trying to get my shift on Mon covered so I can study...not only do I have the A&P final but I have a sociology test, though there won't be as much studying with that and I already have an A average in the course. But it's just something added on top of what I have to do for A&P. I'm really looking forward to this being over, I'm trying to focus on the schoolwork and not even get on the computer much so we'll see how I do with that...I'll be around though.

There's probably more to update, but I'm going to leave soon. Not really looking forward to the conference call I have to do tonight, since it's apparently an HOUR, but we'll see. American Idol tonight! And I might even vote to see if the contestants recorded their own "thank you for voting" messages.
help?
- Apr. 27th, 2008 at 10:28 PM
Edit: Ok, just installed a new version of iTunes, it opened, but now I have no songs on there. I guess I'll have to get all my mp3s back into that program and burn my CDs back on there again...

I miss all the posts like every day on both
And a couple of days ago, I got a comment on a post from a while ago, supposedly from Jason Yeager. I'm starting to think it was really him, since he mentioned his CD he's working on, the diner...so I sent him a myspace message asking if it really was him, and that I'd definitely love to see him at the diner and see him in Branson...

And I was thinking during my drive to work about this season of American Idol, and started thinking of the other seasons and if I've liked a contestant as much as I like David C this year...there was Clay in Season 2, Taylor in Season 5 (though it wasn't until the Top 5 or so), Blake last season, but I've never watched a season from the beginning to the end, and so I haven't really been following a contestant for this long. And before David, it was Jason Y this season. And I haven't heard too much about him, except that he's singing sometime this summer at some show. And this picture in my icon I got from photobucket, not sure who's it was but I credited it with the icons, if you know who's it is let me know.
I wonder how long I'll follow David C's career too, because usually I follow the person for maybe a few months after Idol and then the next season starts or I find something else and follow that and get into it. Hopefully he tours around and I get to see him though, I'm not sure if I'm going to the Idol tour although now I would really like to. Or go to see if I can meet them before/after. That touring around has to be so much fun for all of them...
I think I've really liked him since his audition, though during the Top 24 and 20 weeks I was focused on Jason Y and still thinking about him when he left, but then I got into David C. And he's changed so much since the audition, he seems to have changed his personality as well as his appearance, and I like the new look and everything although I do kind of miss his old style. Oh and it's so cool he's also left handed and that he plays guitar left handed, since not many people do...I think I'd like to try that sometime...
