I’m Rick James
There is another side to me, one that rarely anybody knows about….it’s the monkey see monkey do complex…sometimes this gets me into a lot of trouble.
Most of you wouldn’t know it…but since the beginning of last semester I fell into a pit of religiously watching Fox’s American Idol, not because of the media, not because of Simon, but because of my room mates. I would be sitting in our bedroom constantly online or at the SAC, but then on Wednesdays and Tuesdays and Mondays at about eight or nine pm my suit mate would come squealing into the room, drop whatever she was doing and turn on the TV. The funny thing is…my other two room mates would do it too. They got a kick out of all the “william hungs”, predict who would go through to the next round, call into the show to vote..etc. What’s even better is the fact that if it was on at eight, then the Amazing Race would be on at nine. That’s two whole hours of having a reason not to do homework! I got hooked. Darn this schooling for getting in the way.
In the end there were only two: Bo Bice(rock) and Carrie Underwood(Country)

The ending was predicted though, I had a feeling Carrie would win. They followed her right from the getgo. The first time she auditioned they even showed a clip of her at her home in Oaklahoma(a cow farm)

I almost have System of a Down’s new album Mezmerize memorized. All the songs are good but I like the lyrics to “Lost in Hollywood” the most right now, can’t put my finger on it, I just do. I need to go to their concert. I need to get back stage passes, and when I find out that they aren’t married I will marry them, or become a roadie. The youngest one is only ten years older than me…that’s not bad…right? hehe
