edsa day and american idol

although i technically live in edsa (well, at least our village has an edsa gate), i was nowhere near the shrine last feb 25. instead, me and chris headed to our friend francis’ house in batangas. diana, agnes and gio were also there. we were supposed to go wakeboarding first, but because it was out of the way, we didn’t want to get dark and we didn’t have enough money, we decided not to. i still plan to go one of these days, though. anyway, we had so much fun. we didn’t swim or anything. we just ate a lot, drank (at least they did), relaxed and had a videoke showdown all throughout the day.

i was so inspired by american idol that i practically hogged the mike. don’t you ever wonder what you would sing if you auditioned for american idol? i’d probably sing a whitney houston song like “saving all my love for you” or “run to you”. i’d love to hear what simon will say about my rendition…or maybe not. at least i think paula will say something like “you’re a very beautiful girl…” before flushing my pop star dreams down the toilet! haha i wish!

my favorite among the girls is carrie underwood. she’s so good! and i really think that america has had enough of the typical black singer (no offense, but the last 2 idols were black and i think 3 in a row is a bit too much). i have many favorites among the boys. constantine is sooo hot! that other rocker dude is admittedly a better singer, but like simon said, constantine has a certain charisma. i like anthony federov’s voice, too. it’s really effortless and soothing. surprisingly, i also like that scott savol guy, the one who looks like a serial killer. of course there’s anwar and mario vasquez. mario’s really good, but i think that he’s just like latoya last year. he’s arguably one of the favorites and he can really sing, but it still depends on america’s votes.

anyway, me and chris plan to go to the states this summer for our friends’ anya and paolo’s wedding. i hope that there’s still american idol by that time ‘cause im gonna vote for sure! you see, i have this bet with chris. he just picked mario vasquez and that lindsey girl (she’s pretty daw kasi) and the rest of the contestants are mine. im pretty sure that i won’t have a hard time winning this bet. :)
