My mum used to do that to my little brother too.

haha

I am totally in love with Ricki Lee at the moment. She was a contestant on Aus Idol about 5 years ago but got voted out in 7th place which was a scandal cos she had been tipped to win. Now she co-hosts Idol and has some songs out. I'm not into her style of music so much but I still love her. This was her audition. I've just watched it about 10 times in a row.

I cried when she got voted off. I freaking LOVE her, I find her adorable I got her first single the day it came out and I've got her first album somewhere too.

AND, I saw her at the top 10 tour thing they did. She is awesome live

I want to see her live but I checked her website and there are no upcoming dates.

I couldn't believe it when she got voted off. I kinda lost interest in the series after that.

I remember Marcia telling her that her singing was pure joy and that's exactly what I think about her.

Unfortunately I can't find any of her other Idol performances on Youtube cos I'd love to see them again.

Have you watched any of the current season Sarina?

It's excellent!

I remember how shocking it was when she was voted off. I seriously thought she was going to win, and can't even remember who did win that season now. I didn't really get into the show again after that season, not because I was outraged by her elimination, but I just lost interest.

Casey Donovan won her season and Anthony Callea came second. I come and go from Idol. I've probably watched 4 seasons of it.

Gah, Casey. She had a good voice, but she was a TERRIBLE role model. Dicko gave Ricki Lee crap about her weight (she was 17) and didn't say anything to Casey (who turned 17 during the competition, if I'm not mistaken). She also smoked and refused to lose weight, when she was obviously VERY unhealthy. I think Courtney said he'd try and lose weight when they questioned him.

I only watched 1 episode this season, for my friends cousin

Was your friend's cousin Kim?

I remember Casey Donovan wore this traditional Indian dress to the finale, and everyone in my family made a joke about her looking like an Indian elephant...

Cruel. Harsh. Lol

She had that odd earring/nosering thingy too.

She sounds lovely...=P

I'm gone for a week. Hope someone is still here when I get back.

We will all die.

I died inside when she told me she would be leaving...

My year 12 exams will be over by then

Don't care overly for my year 11 exams.

Hahahhaaaaa, that's gold =P

I like your family.

We'll miss you Kath. =(

And Sarina, you must be one of the only people on this planet who appreciates my family's jokes.

Haha, probably =P

Why are you doing Year 12 exams?

Yay! You're back!

Yay!!

I'm trying to get Pearl Jam tickets for Sunday. Tis stressful.

Am going to see You am I tonight at the Annandale. I realise that means nothing to you guys but trust me: It's going to be HHHHHUUUGGGGEEEE. They even do a song about me:

Why are you doing Year 12 exams?

At my school, it's suggested that you take 1 year 12 subject to lighten the load for when you're actually in year 12. My grades were good enough they allowed me to do two (psychology and drama). I did year 11 drama in year 10, but I skipped year 11 psych.

We went to see Pearl Jam last night in 40+ degree blistering heat.

They were brilliant! I was pretty close to the stage which was good but boy, was it hot.

Poor Eddie Vedder was sufering with a cold so I give him props for pulling off a brilliant performance in that heat.

My one complaint was that they didn't play Alive. For me, it's their signature song; one that all the fans know and love. I think it's rude and selfish of them not to play it. They also didn't play Black which was a bit of a bummer. I was even more pissed off about it cos I checked the set list from their Melbourne show and they played them both there. They also got Animal but we got Even Flow and they didn't.

Maybe next time. :)

Stinks about them not playing those songs. I love the song Black, so I can understand your disappointemnt.

Glad you still liked it overall.

That's a bummer. Why wouldn't they play Alive? I'm not that big a fan of the band, but I know nearly every word to that song.

Alive should be a given. As my husband said (jokingly) "they're not on stage for their own amusement. We payed money. If they wanna play whatever songs they want then they should pay us."

Melbourne didn't get Even Flow? Damn, that's my favorite =P.

My friend Maddy went to Pearl Jam the other night though. She said it was AMAZING too

... I wanted to go, but I'd bought Green Day tickets a few days before I found out about Pearl Jam =\
