Welcome back!!

The new topic will be posted a little later today, as well as more of the special powers assignments and the Second Chance Sign up sheet just went up: http://community.livejournal.com/therealljidol/408328.html so make sure to tell people you know who went out early or who have been hanging out on the edges this season saying "Maybe next time". Next time is now!!! :)

Hopefully everyone had a nice break and is ready to jump back into both the game, and real life - which seems to be starting back up for everyone as well. I'm not sure what this "work" thing is, what do you mean we aren't going to be stopping work to have a mini-party every other day? ;)

Party good

You are right the end of the years seems to have a lot of office parties attached to it.

Good luck to those who are taking their second shot at the title.

Thanks, I'll need it. I entered on the second chance but...ok, just need to relax and enjoy it for what it is right?

Even if I go out on the first week!

Did you enjoy your office parties? (or have any?)

Looking forward to getting back into the swing of Idol, and to reading the re-introductions of the second chancers!

Is there a deadline for the re-introductions?

Not that I'm signing up, but that might be something people want to know!

I'm curious about the signup deadline too. Hoping it stays up 'til Fridayish.

I finished the fic of doom this morning at 12:30, so am super tired. Now onto edits.

I'm glad I have a flat top stove this morning because my milk and water and canned pumpkin mixture boiled over when I turned around to get my mug out of the dishwasher. The mix is for a pumpkin oatmeal that I saw made on Aarti Party. Fortunately there was plenty mix left for the oatmeal, but oh the orange mess!

I hope I am not violating any rules here by doing this, but my last Lj Idol entry before break which was about the Christmas brouhaha, stirred up a bit of controversy, and over break, I composed an entry in response to this controversy. It is a little long, but here it is if anyone is interested. http://anastoff.livejournal.com/24047.html

To sign up... or not.... I did so miserably this season I don't think I have it in me to even give it a whirl again. :\

From: [identity profile] theafaye.livejournal.com
I think you have to look at the recent tribe structure as not really being indicative of your abilities if this were a different season. Because everyone's been grouped according to votes, it's made it a much more even and hard fought contest, whereas if this were an earlier season, you'd still be in.

I guess it just comes down to why you do Idol and how much you enjoy it. I signed cheese up because, yes, I think it was voted out prematurely, but really, it's more because I enjoy writing those entries and it's good to have an excuse to do it within the contest and have a broader readership. So if you think you'll have fun writing, go for it and try not to stress about results, which is, of course, easier said than done.

I'm going to have to think on what to do for the re-introduction. It's interesting and exciting!

Here's to getting eliminated again! ;)

Now, however, I'm going to ignore wise advice by going to the grocery store even though I'm hungry. I've got a shopping list. Hopefully I can at least mostly keep to it?

I'm looking forward to what the beginning of Phase 2 might bring, but it might just have me tearing my hair out. We shall see. My semester starts today as well, which I don't feel quite ready for. I wanted a little more time to get used to 2011 before the hard stuff started!

I'd love to get back into Idol in the Second Chance game,(using my alternate ID, of course), but I'm not sure I could fully commit now, given my mother's situation and need for care. I never know what each week will bring. My life will roll this way till at least March or April. That being said, should there be opportunities to come in as a guest/ partner writer for a specific week here or there, I just might be able to do that! Ya never know.

Happy Monday and Back to Life, Back to Reality Day to all! AW

Ugh. Back to RL. My alarm clock even fought against Monday by not going off. I have no clue what happened, it was still set this morning and if it had went off, it wouldn't still be set. Luckily my internal alarm kicked in and I got up right on time (the alarm that failed is my "warning" alarm meaning it's a warning that I'm gonna be miserable very soon!)

It was a fabulous weekend with [livejournal.com profile] java_fiend as usual :)

So tired today. I screwed my sleep schedule up the whole weekend, and was wide awake until nearly 5am this morning. Slept until 8:30, just got home about 30 minutes ago, and need to get a lot of work done.

I feel what the others are saying about this being a much harder season. Looking forward to what Phase 2 brings and seeing what happens. *shrug*

Mornin' Folks!

I was dreading going to work today... but then last night I remembered that I have today off!!! I don't know how I could forget such a wonderful thing but I did. And now I feel like it's a nice surprise... kinda like finding a twenty dollar bill on the ground. :-)

So... I am just relaxing with some good coffee, good music, a furry feline and the sound of the rain today... 'tis a good day. Looking forward to getting the Idol train rollin' again!!!

I've got coffee and a rejuvenated pastry, so I think I'm ready to go! Going to do a bit of reading to catch up on what's been happening with the special powers and second chances and stuff--very exciting shenanigans, Gary! Last season I felt like I was in an endurance test--this go round is more like an ever-shifting obstacle course!

Wishing the best for those jumping in at the second chance.

I love parties but am kind of tired of them for a while. Let's talk again in a couple of weeks.

I like the prompt but am not sure if what jumps out at me is what I want to write on. Will moll over that.

It feels good to have routine back in my life again. Yay!

Not sure if I have the brain power to get back to this due to some family stuff happening but kicking the idea around. Am I am able to come back with this journal rather then the one I started idol out with this season, if I decide to pop back in?

Thanks

Volunteer Commenter Brigade!

From: [identity profile] joeymichaels.livejournal.com
Hello Potential New Recruits!

Well, comments are apparently down all over the place this season! If you're anything like me, you like the votes, but love the comments.

I would like to propose that we form a commenter brigade! Our goal will be to leave comments in people's entries.

Comments, of course, let people know that (whether you're voting for them or not) their entries are getting read. In my oexperience, even a short comment that addresses something specific in the entry can be very encouraging. Heck, even a "Hey, you used words!" style comment can be a positive thing.

So, what do you say Idolers! Let's get out there and leave some comments this week!

(We can start with the SCI peeps!)
