10 girls left,
My favorites were:
6. Kelly Pickler 3. Brenna Gethers - Sang “Last Dance” .. murdered it
4. Heather Cox - Sang “Hero” .. love the song and she wasn’t that bad, just not that great
7. Kinnik Sky - Sang “Here for the party” .. I just don’t like her voice and dramatics.. it’s like she’s over-enunciating
Guys turn.. 2 will be voted out on Thursday..
My Favorites:
1. Ace Young 2. Bobby Bennett - Sang “Copa Cabana” 7. Gedeon McKinney -
At least I was right about one.. I did like him, just a bad song choice
Sang “Shout” 8. Jose “Sway” Penala -
Super lucky, I thought he performed like a cheesy televangelist
Sang “Reasons”
Also lucky, the one high note saved him I think, and it was a good note
The 12 girls went first in a two-hour show.. 2 will be voted out on Thursday
My Favorites:
1. Ayla Brown She got lucky, bitchy girls like her always have loyal minions I guess
4. Heather Cox - Sang “When you tell me that you love me”
She wasn’t bad, just a poor song choice, but she got lucky too
7. Kinnik Sky - Sang “Get here”
Her powerful notes saved her, but I still think she’s overly dramatic
I really don’t know why I like this show. It’s just interesting to see the auditions, but my favorite part is Hollywood week. Here are the top 24 (12 girls & 12 guys), I’ve put a mark next to those I liked. They’re in no particular order because I haven’t heard some of them sing much. You can see their pictures on the Official American Idol website

Ok so it’s not really important history, just wanted to post a little something about the last 2 months before I got into some newer stuff..
December 8th: Ken and I broke up, my parents drove up from Virginia and helped me move out. After that it was just crazy, with holiday preparations and trying to figure out where I was going to go and what I was going to do..
January 7th: My mom and I drove to Texas where I am currently staying with my sister-in-law, Missy, my nephew, Daemon (6) and niece, Isabel (4). My brother headed off to boot camp 2 weeks later. I am still looking for a job! So if you have any suggestions on where I should apply, most stores have wanted me to apply online, so I’ve applied to Hollywood Video, Office Max, Home Depot, The Dollar Store…Payless Shoes, Hancock Fabrics, Sally Beauty Supply.. etc.. I also have a Monster.com resume up. .. I’m looking for Full-Time..
Once I got my computer set up here in Texas, I started back up making sigs.. I’ve made 17 sigs and 1 Website banner so far.. you can see them all HERE
Ken and I are doing better, we talk everyday. The kids are dealing with their dad being away. Missy and I are getting along well.. so things are pretty peachy except for the job.
