Here's What's UP

This might be it. I've just gotten word that they are now releasing the results of the exam we've taken 2 weeks ago. I had preferred a different application before I knew I was eligible to take the exam. But something inside of me wanted to pursue different options. Sad to say that the position I had originally planned to apply for didn't seem to bother giving me a heads up. Whether I'm up for an interview or they just didn't like me. What a way for slow rejection.

As for the good news. I have, finally, received good news of something I've kind of been wanting to pursue.
This is really great. Even though I know that they might opt for what they think are better suited people for the job, at least I gotten past their standards *just a bit though* It was a good thing the people I waited for the results with went home when they called my name, otherwise they'd known that I passed. It's not that I don't want anyone to know. My lack of self-esteem, has made me bet on NOT passing.
Hopefully, they wouldn't find out. Otherwise I'd be paying them a hundred bucks.
I'm just concerned about that one part of the exam, the dreaded Test 4 (which was btw all about words I don't know what the hell they mean).
She said that it was made as a separate basis for an individual's capability/skill when it comes to grammar and all that stuff. I'm not that good, nor perfect with composition or grammar. But I know how to make a sentence work. What to use and NOT use in a conversation. It's a good thing I'm a blogger. This has totally groomed my talent for words, making stories and stuff. Hopefully I can use this as an edge or something.

God does have greater plans for me. ^_^

For other news. I'm becoming a bit obsessed with Adam Lambert
(for those who doesn't know who he is, Adam's is the runner-up for American Idol Season 8. With Kris Allen being the Season 8's Idol.) Obsessed, for me means signing up for his official website. And pretty much that's it. I'm not exactly a stalker-type-obsessed-psycho. I just read all the articles and watch videos of him online. Even if it means I'd have to constantly refresh updates on my Twitter to check the latest about Glambert. ^_^

Anyone using Plurk? It's kind of in a way like Twitter, but a bit annoying. Specially when it comes to getting updates-per-second on your timeline. THAT YOU DON'T EVEN CARE ABOUT. I've decided to delete my Plurk account and faithfully use Twitter. I mostly follow, Ashton Kutcher (who has about 2 million followers already), Ryan Seacrest (for American Idol/Adam Lambert updates), Perez Hilton (for fun and idiotic insults on celebs), and some of my friends (just 2 of them to be exact).

And now, I must go off to bed. Since I haven't slept yet and my insides hurt from battling in the restroom. Goodnight.

Never really liked Gokey that much

So what's up with AI and me ranting about it?
Well, for one, this is the first time I've ever followed through American Idol. I almost kind of did AI's season 7, but I found them kind of boring. But this, you've got a flamboyant superstar and an oh-so-down-to-earth talented kid. I've really heard nor saw all of his performances, maybe because he had a guitar or played the piano which for me passes for a John Mayer type of style. But as I've been contemplating and seeing video reels, he's a good guy. Both of them huggin' it out. Kind of cute too.
As for Adam, I've followed through all of his performances even from the day he auditioned. I knew he was something. Like what I felt when I saw David Cook's audition.
And what about Danny Gokey? Honestly, I thought he was a good singer but then personality-wise not THAT good. I don't know, maybe it's because of the interviews and the fact that he's lame and boring too. I know about how his late wife had encouraged him to join the show, but seems like that has been what he's always talking about. As it drags on, so has my vote for him.

Love Adam and Kris. Love Adam more :)

American Idol Season 8

Is American Idol Homophobic?

The show may as well be damn rigged. Where winners would always be the 2nd performer.
If you remember, Clay Aiken might have been forced to conceal his true sexuality since being "out" hasn't been the latest "in" at that time.
Now we have a proud and meek talented star and yet has been deprived of what he truly deserves just because an underdog who pretty much another guy who knows how to sing along with his piano and guitar.
I'm not saying he doesn't have talent. The guy's GOT talent. But if you can just do the whole recap about him singing "No Boundaries", the coronation song, it almost ate him up. He can't even keep up with the song's climax.
So this season 8's American Idol is yet another light rock singer on the block.

Now, what if Adam Lambert DID win AI?
Tempting question, and damn right I'd say "Hell, YEAH"
The guy's an entertainer. You'd never know exactly what you'd get. A performer who genuinely pours his heart out with every song.
Since Adam has experience with theater, the stage and the like, obviously he can do a lot of things other than sing. Proclaim the obvious why don't you.
If Adam's going to make a record, he can make tons probably with each track coming from different genres. Since he seems capable of singing almost anything.
I'm looking forward to what AI is going to do with their first runner up.

Why do I prefer Adam over Kris?

Well, for one Kris is too damn boring. So what if he can sing while playing his guitar or piano, who hasn't done that before anyway.
Adam just goes all out with whatever he's got in mind. Pure energy and entertainment. He's got more range and style. He knows to make his choice of songs work.

Sad part about all this is that, this will be the season where AI is going to be bombarded with rants of crowning a Christian over an openly gay star.

Then again Adam is still and will always be straight-up larger than Idol.

My horoscope says I should "try to be the first person to speak up if something unfair or unjust happens today."
Exactly what I'm doing now. ^_^
