i knew it all along that Kris Allen was going to win anyways.

and yes, we are all celebrating to the justice that is finally being done to our newly crowned American Idol, Kris Allen. =)

a rather smart move, judges.

or, is it?

for heaven's sake, even if you were to leave Adam Lambert singing on a street, eventually record companies will hire him. meaning, even if you put him in second place, you know that he will survive. plus, putting him in second place is the worst. i notice there has been an American Idol curse after Kelly Clarkson. it seems that the runner-up will always be much more popular and sucessful than the winner. won't you agree?

now, let's question the long run. comparison. we have Adam Lambert, the too perfect, overrated and hot(at least according to me), high ranged screecher, as some people would love to call him. on the other hand, we have down-to-earth, hopeless romantic charmer, whose vocal range is strong but to a certain limit. definitely, nothing compared to Adam's but is granted a better creativity drive. Adam Lambert, can reach notes that we never even knew existed in the past season of American Idol. he's versatile, you name it, from rock to country to pop. whole package. and i can bet, he just lifted the expectation where no one can reach, for all the male contestant in the upcoming American Idol.

Kris Allen. American Idol's very own Jason Mraz. strong vocals. charming. boy next door. capable of changing any song to adapt to his own style. but, you did realize the similarities in all his versions, don't you? the chords and the ensemble.

well, i think Adam Lambert is worth it for the long run. that's what i think. still, i wish that i could watch Alison competing head-to-head with Adam. hhmm. that's a freaking tough one.

lovely, Sha-sha flew off to China for her 1 1/2 month attachment course for visual merchandising. we're all going to miss her. the sight of her hugging her mum and dad, crying, really got me bad.

and, i don't ever want to talk about overseas or flying off. it is an awful, inhuman topic for me.

i'm back with more love.

PS: for those who attended Catalogue:V's gig at Cineleisure last 2 days; only if you're already a fan, do add Alfredo Seow on Facebook and he will update you from there. thank you. support local music, that's if you have the slightest idea that Singapore local music is not only Indie, goddamnit.

wreacking my brains out for story's ending and not publishing it here. if only there was a word for, fear of plagiarism offenders. grrh. apologies for your dissapointments.
