Green Room - Week 10 - Day 4
Jan. 15th, 2010 09:21 amhttp://community.livejournal.com/therealljidol/289723.html is where the action is at.
Is your entry there?
Is it something that you are proud to be eliminated on? After all, every week is another chance to find new readers and the closer we get to the finale, the more of them tend to show up.
Much like contestants, some people just go "there's too many to read!!!" and don't show up until the numbers start going on, when they expect to see something amazing. Or at least a fascinating trainwreck. ;)
You have to assume that every time is going to be the first time someone reads you.
What are you telling them about who you are and why they should come back to read more?
***
What are you telling me (and each other) about where you are right now? At this moment? Where are you? *pokes you with a stick* Tell me! I've sent out ninjas and I want to make sure they are going to the right place!
Ninjas don't come cheap.

Date: 2010-01-15 02:43 pm (UTC)And I'm catching up on work, now that I have tapered off a bit on searching updates on the orphanages in Haiti ... we know everyone at the one my sister is adopting from are safe, unfortunately there are some which weren't as lucky :( Now it's scared waiting if they will get food, water, medical care, and if they won't be hit with epidemics :(

Date: 2010-01-15 03:13 pm (UTC)I ended up taking a bye this week, because I hadn't had a chance to post and now I prolly won't have reliable computer access. Sorry guys.
Hopefully I will have a chance to read some of the entries this week though. I'm interested in what directions people took. :)
Hope everyone is fantastic.

Date: 2010-01-15 05:07 pm (UTC)Rough day yesterday... starting with a lovely young client telling me that she had been diagnosed with lymphoma and was leaving school, and kind of going on from there. Today is shaping up to be much easier.
Sure is a lot of perspective going around, eh?

Date: 2010-01-15 05:42 pm (UTC)People should read it if they need a laugh, for sure, as it details my enviousness of my younger brothers' freedom to do whatever they want, and get away with it.
I had a fabulous time getting into one of their heads, at 3 years old, and imagining what it felt like to have all that freedom at his disposal :)

Date: 2010-01-15 06:43 pm (UTC)For open topic, I'm toying with something on poly, like a sort of Q and A from Idol a while back. I've yet to slip it in to any other entries, and rather than rely on a 'love' topic, maybe I'll get more philosophical on it with this. Hum. Maybe maybe.
