therealljidol | Green Room - Week 14

Good morning.

Now that

shay_writes has dropped out, we stand at 62 contestants.

Let's sit back and consider that for a moment. 62. That's 12 people standing between you and the Top 50. If we *just* lose 5 for the next couple of weeks (the 5 that we have been losing, assuming that there are no more drops or bye-outs), that means we will be there by the end of the month.

But also, consider that it also means that there are 8 people before you will have outlasted *100* other contestants. 100. It boggles MY mind, hopefully it does the same for you.

So if we really do have that short of distance to those points, I should remind everyone again, when we hit the Top 50 mark, all of the byes will go away. No more byes to use.

Also, I've mentioned this in passing in the Green Room over the past week or so a couple times... and so the people who happened to catch it seemed to be working with inside info, but really it was just a case of they saw (and understood) what I said. What did I say? That after 50 we will be having an Intersection. What does that mean? Well I'd imagine the same thing it meant last season.*G*

***

Still waiting to hear on who the 3 people with the power to call someone out have picked. Remember, you guys have until 11am EST on Friday to get me that info. (so we can prepare the polls in time).

***

Hope everyone has a wonderful day.

I won't be able to see her. It's our ten month anniversary too! :-( She canceled plans for tonight. I was going to take a bye because I'm busy from 7am-10:30pm every day this week, but she head what this week's Idol topic was and she said "No, you're not taking a bye this week. I need to read that entry." She's been really stressed, and she loves it when I write about her in my LJ. She said she'd rather have that this week since she's going to see me four days this week anyways.

First place two weeks ago. Second last week. Jessi is going to take this entry VERY seriously. One day to work on it. No pressure or anything, right?

Ha! No pressure at all. Just make it perfect and loving and wonderful. As long as it comes from your heart, it will be perfect for her. We girls aren't that demanding. Right?

Perfect and loving and wonderful means fantastic for Jessi and I and "That's nice. NEXT!!" for anyone on Idol reading it. I'll need to make it relevant to the readers of Idol. Otherwise, I should just post it in my own LJ and not waste everyone else's time.

I don't think it will be a waste of time. If it's from the heart and written well, that's enough.

Just like the 57 others? I've got to do more than just write well, methinks. Reading is not a charitable act- it's something that the reader does with the expectation that they'll get something out of it. EVERYONE here will likely engage the emotions of the reader, so that's not going to be enough.

good luck.

I'll probably end up taking your advice. Everyone that I've mentioned it to has said the same things.
