Australian Idol

Well this is just a quick bit of me bragging really. So about 4 weeks ago I entered a raffle to win Australian Idol tickets... and well I will save you all the suspense and let you know that I won them and just got back from it with two of my lovely friends Meagan and Rachel. It was really really fun! the studio was tiny though... I mean they make them look so big on tv, there were really only about 200 of us? Maybe less? I am a bad guess at numbers... Any who it was filmed live, so that was pretty cool. They could count us in from commercials and such wanting people to cheer. It was actually very fun! their judges are much nicer than ours.... well by that I mean they really don't have a Simon, but that is ok because he is over rated anyway. That's all I really have for you... we weren't allowed to take pictures inside the studio, but Rachel has one on her camera of the three of us.. I will add it on here as soon as I can get it from her!

When I win something it is usually a free popcorn or something. Needless to say - Awesome! I want to see the show just for the audience so I can try to pick you guys out! I am much more ecstatic in person than this posts makes it out to seem, by the way.

I forgot a few things in my other message-
-Professor Layton DOS (Oh yeah!)
-My last year of school starts in less than a week
-Four of my classes are taught by teachers I have already had, two of which were my sophomore teachers (and I love them!)

Now, time to youtube Aussie Idol!! Even though the show you were on won't be up yet...oh well, still going to do it =)

Er, huh, I don't know what to say to this.

Gina and I are 'facebook friends' though. Yay! Yay?

Whitney I love your enthusiasm about all my adventures and randomness =) Even if you got to see the show I doubt we were in a very obvious spot. We were as far left as you could possibly get. And I am very happy for you about having good teachers!!! YAY!!!! Oh also Prof Layton, excellentness!!! Del.............................

I will find you in the crowd somehow.

So this question has been nagging at me - how did 'they' (I don't know who they are) decide which side of the road to drive on (England left, America right)?

I know I know, only me, right?

Could just be one big coincidence...

I am bored, can you tell?

Well this is what I think about the driving on the opposite side of the road thing. England did it first, obviously.... they choose the left, why I do not know, I mean you had to pick one right? Well We wanted to be as separate as humanly possible so we choose the other side, developed weird ways to measure things, yadda yadda just to be as different as possible. These are my thoughts. Why the left I do not know. Obviously you are not bored, just very curious about roads.... you must be looking out your bedroom window asking life questions, haha.

That's like Dean, my brother. "I like this because other people don't."
"So you don't really like it? You just try to like it because it's unpopular?"
"Basically."
"Cool Dean, cool..."
