My eyes look wierd huh? Must be the Red Bull....or the whip-its we did with Demi Moore that night.
Last August I waited 13 hrs to be initiated into the elite group known as AIR--American Idol Rejects :) BUT I feel fortunate that out of the thousands in line, I was next to Kristine Osorio. We had a lot in common and it made the time go by faster. She's really good! I remember getting the texts every time she got through to the next round--so exciting! Then we went out to dinner before she went back to Amarillo. I haven't heard from her lately, so I'm not sure if she's still in the competition (fingers crossed!) but I know she got to Hollywood :)
Here's her clip from last night:
Damn I can see the weight difference from August til now...15 lbs difference :) I had just started WW the month before.
Here's a little clip of the night we went out to celebrate. We went to a club/thai restaurant and waited a while to get a table but the pad thai was really good.
Her good friend Samantha was a blast too. And Jasmine was another gal we met in line. Also a great singer. I am re-thinking my audition and the choices I made--if I decide to try out next season this summer (which would be my last chance at age 28) I would definitely pick a better song and wardrobe..I don't know why I picked the song I did--especially without my guitar! Maybe I'll get better and give it one last shot :)
But man how exciting to be right in front of Jennifer Lopez (pronounced "Hennefare Lopayz..taco flavored keesses!") and Steven Tyler! I wish her luck and hope she lets me ride her coat tails! ha :)

I remember your post from back in August! HOW FUN AND exciting. I think if you haven't heard from her, it's because she is in. I know that my brother had met an AI participant when she was still in the show and I think she had won one year? I can't remember anymore, but they asked her if she had won and she said she couldn't tell them, but she was in the top 5! :D I will watch for her. I don't even know when AI is on anymore. I haven't been keeping up.
I don't know if she made it or not, her posts on fb have been kinda depressing. cool blog, samantha.
I would encourage you to go next year, but I don't think it would be very fun to be away from your family that much. I'm sure that's agonizing for you to think about.
If that happened it would be really hard, but honestly I don't think I would ever make it that far..I just want to make it a little for my own ego..like the first round..i got high hopes! lol. been working on a couple new songs but they aren't good enough to youtube yet. I wanna move into the house already so I can use my amp and mic and not worry about what time it is etc. thanks Susan. :)
