David Cook Frenzy

It has been two days since they crown the new American Idol and it is no other than Mr.WORDNERD or DAVID COOK!Well i gotta say this again,you deserve it hands down and seriously i can't wait for his album to come out!

I'm currently addicted to his latest single which is the winning song,"Time of my Life" and I'm seriously addictive to it as i keep listening to it over and over again!I'm currently having this "David Cook mania" in my brain now and i don't know when it is gonna stop....Maybe never because I'm a die hard fan man!WooHOOOo!

While i was browsing David Cook on Youtube,guess what?I found a video of David Cook and David Archuleta doing a commercial with Guitar Hero,and u must say it is freaking hilarious to see both David with a guitar without his pants...OMG!Enjoy the winning song and the commercial!

The NEW AMERICAN IDOL.....VIDEO

HERE IS THE WINNING MOMENT AND THIS IS WHERE DAVID COOK SANG THE WINNING SONG,"TIME OF MY LIFE"

We Have a new American Idol

OMG!Guess what.....Result is out and I've been awake since 8a.m to watch the American Idol finale and by 10am like that,they announce the result!Over 90 over million volt was casted.Earlier in the show,Ryan Seacrest told that one of the David receive 56% of the vote and the other David 44% of the vote and then i figured out it must be David Archuleta who is gonna win and GUESS what i was wrong.....DAVID COOK WAS THE CLEAR WINNER and his winning song was "Time of my life" and it was super duper nice man!
DAVID COOK ROCKSFinal words....CONGRATULATION TO BOTH DAVID AND BIG SHOUT OUT TO MR.DAVID COOK FOR BEING THE MAN!I CAN'T WAIT FOR HIS ALBUM AND I GOT TO SAID ONE LAST TIME...DAVID COOK YOU'RE THE MAN AND YOU DESERVE IT.HANDS DOWN

What a Spectacular Night

Indeed what a spectacular night for the two David's to sing at the finale.I've just watch it and I must say it is one of the best episode ever!The theme was "boxing" as both contestant came out in boxing robe and through out they show they showed boxing scene in between making the whole Finale like a boxing match.
Round 1-Clive Davis Choice
And this what Mr.Clive has choose for David Cook-"I still haven't found what I'm looking for".As usual Randy and Paula Love it but Simon was not a big fan of it.Personally i think that it was nice indeed.
Next up,it was David Archuleta's turn and Mr.Clive has chosen,"don't let the sun go down on me" and all 3 judges LOVE it!
Final words,Round one goes to David Archuleta
Round 2-Writter's choice
This is where 10 songs were short listed by the unknown song writers from America and both contestants were given the choice to choose 1 out of 10 short listed song.I've personally heard all 20 entries and i must said,It is BLOODY good!
David Cook choose "dream big" and it was kinda a fast tempo pop song and he managed to make it a rock version and it was nice.After the performance,it was OK.Randy was not a big fan,Paula like it and Simon doesn't felt it was a winning song(that winning song x-factor).I personally love it!Hands Down!
Next it was,David Archuleta's choice and he choose "in this moment" and it was kinda a ballad which has high note in it!The original was nice and when David sang it,it was splendid!All 3 judges love it and Simon again gives round 2 to David Archuleta.
Round 3,Final round-Contestant Choice
David Cook's choice was "the world i know" and it was a slow song and after the performance he actually connected with the song and he cried.Paula gave him a standing ovation,Randy like it and Simon wished he picked other song like "Billie jean" or "Baba o Riley" i think.
David Archuleta's choice was "imagine" and as usual he did a nice job.All 3 judges love it.
Simon final words, "it was a knockout round" which won by David Archuleta.

Well guess what,as i was listening to hitz 20 this morning on Hitz.Fm guess what DJ Ean said,"Simple Plan will be coming down to perform in KL somewhere around this year".My 1st reaction,Stoned and then i was overjoyed and then I said to myself this time i have to go as i missed on their first gig here in KL.Well it's time to save up some cash,join more contest and do whatever i can to go that SIMPLE PLAN concert!
Next,as i was browsing my friends blog,guess what?According to her PARAMORE IS also coming down to KL.It has not been confirm but I'm crossing my finger.
And Finally my favourite,AMERICAN IDOL finale is this Wednesday at 6 p.m(via telecast) and the next day is the result show which Star World is showing live at 8a.m and thank goodness i got no class on that day..FoooYOH!

Untitle

Well another tiring day as i need to head to college in the morning for another seminar on"Gadding",talking about food handling and hygiene.Seminar started with as usual attendance and next to my shock a guy in charge told us that he will be taking our picture for the certificate and the license that we will be needing it for our future employment which is valid for 3 years starting from today!And what happen after 3 years......

We were told that seminar is from 9a.m till 1 p.m and when we walked in we receive another shocking news saying that our seminar is till 3.45 and as usual we were "shocked" la!

Overall i must say that lady speaker was funny,horny as most of her jokes are involving making love,making babies and requirement for having sex which has to do examples of a situation.

Well,that's all for the day as i got nothing interesting to blog about.Another hectic weekend as tomorrow i will need to leave to 1 Utama to go with my besties Melanie,Tammy and Pui Yee to go and hunt for Jo and Gi's last minute present and seriously i got no idea what to buy!Well luckily i won't be the only one thinking and cracking my head.....

As for now...Back to Idol Fever and i must stress this out as American Idol Finale is this Wednesday 5.00Pm at Star World.Sadly Star World won't be showing it live..BOO HOO....but Via telecast.Who Cares,just as long i get to see David Cook perform!Universe i Send this message out to you,please make sure America go for talent instead of popularity by making David Cook the winner instead of David Archuleta the Winner!

I've expected and i was RIGHT

OMG...People......American Idol Finale is next week already and guess what,I've the results from one of American Idol kaki,Yik Hoong as he is one of the American Idol fan like me!

Well straight to the point(Spoiler),Both DAVID's(Cook and Archuleta) are in the finale and that makes Syesha Mercado who is leaving the competition!I've expected it from the start that these both David's are gonna be in the finale which unless Jason is still in and which it will never happen(No offense to Jason's).

This mean that Both David Cook and David Archuleta in the finale,singing in on a new stage which is the Nokia Theater not Kodak Theater anymore!What will be they singing.....All i know is they will be singing 3 songs.... 1 of it will be the winning song,1 of judges choice and 1 song if their choice gua.I'm hoping that David Cook will choose "Always be my Baby" by Mariah Carey and David Archuleta chooses "Imagine" by John Lennon.I can't wait for the finale and the crowning of the new American Idol 2008 which it is the "Battle of The Davids".

The Finalist,David Archuleta

And,David Cook

Goodbye Syesha and All the best!

I am Who I Am

I am who I am....Lately or rather today,i felt a bit weird about myself!I do not know why but i just felt that I am not the same person as I was before! Have i Changed?Have i Matured enough?Or I'm just being a VainPOt!I'm Just not feeling it...it is as though I'm Me but I'm just not feeling it!I'm not the type of person who show one kind of face or bang the tantrum or being EMO or rather ignored anybody when I'm feeling under the BLUE!Well it is just who i am,it is up to you to accept the fact that I am the same person......Blogging has become one of the tool to express my feeling and letting me write all i want!

What i feel now.........I feel like Drinking or Boost-ing with my friends....Get a Wine or A shot of Tequila or anything that can make me feel like the old me!What else????
ICE-Creams.....Cakes......Cigarettes......NEVER......WEEd(it is illegal)

Well I just hope tomorrow will be a better day to look forward into or else...........
