Green Room - Week 18 - Day 1

[clauderainsrm.livejournal.com]

How do you want Exhibit B to be remembered?

That is the power that is in your hands, right now.

It’s the power that has been in your hands the entire time. But not everyone stops to think about that on a regular basis.

Will it be looked on as welcoming? As divisive? Will the positivity win out or the negativity?

You are the best, and the worst ambassadors LJ Idol has. You go out into the world and either make it look good, or look bad by what you do and what you say.

In the end, more people should be walking away with that feeling you get when you have just walked off a rollercoaster and are just so overwhelmed with emotions… hopefully more people feel the rush of “I want to do that again!!” than are vomiting into the bushes.

One comforting thing is that, regardless of the atmosphere at the end, that I don’t have to worry about who is going to win. I’ve fortunate that the writers have all been of such quality that I knew that no one mattered who ended up in the winner’s circle, that it was going to be someone extremely talented.

The results are up from last night: http://therealljidol.livejournal.com/696245.html
As if the new topic: http://therealljidol.livejournal.com/696365.html

My hope is that Exhibit B will finish out with the same sort of energy that Exhibit A did… with a rush of “I can’t wait until we can do that again!”

Seriously. Am I not on the right newsletters?

It's been great! I jumped in with both feet but no training, experience, or qualifications, so acclimating and figuring stuff out has been a full time job, on top of the actual job. I really love it, though, so I can't complain.

Exactly! I guess they were all behind the scenes -- that or I've missed some more hopping GRs.

Maybe we need to make one. It can be the LJI Drama Dispatch, the straight-to-your-inbox Chronic Crisis Chronicle, delivering news of ongoing snits, behind the scenes wank fests, and other points of incendiary interest.

'Coming up next: the LJ Idol Dispatch Drama-bomb Squad; bringing you hard hitting news about who's hitting the hardest.'

There are also things that people DO see, but shrug off. But I recognize as being the same damn shit that led to other people going off the rails...

Ego and lack of self awareness is a killer.

and how you know is was a good coaster and not some little dinky pissant kiddie ride or snooze fest horse and buggy through Amish country that might be fun at first but gets old really quick.

*snerk* Your powers of expression, I never tire of them. ;)

What am I missing here?!?

Though with a lot of drama, unless it's really obvious I usually have this same question. Is it that I try to give people the benefit of the doubt, especially in solely written communication? Or is it that I dislike contention and am unconsiously blocking it out? "La-la-la-la-la-la..."

I was just last week wondering whether everything was okay with you-- we haven't seen you around since you missed that story deadline, and that's kind of scary.

Everything better now? A little better, at least?

Turkeys are creepy, and they bring their friends. Though the babies are cute when they're very little...

Run it off, I say! Or you'll be sorry later. :O
