-Archie's favorite singer!

I finally managed to get an iTunes gift card. I bought all of Archie's studio versions that I didn't already have, Ashlee's new album, Carly Smithson's last studio version, and the song in my title, "Pocketful of Sunshine".

Last week, Jason Castro was voted off AI. I liked him, thought he was cool, thought he has gorgeous blue eyes, and I think he'll have a great career in music. I just didn't think he was AI material.

This week, Syesha Mercado, the last girl, was voted off. She needed to be voted off a long time ago. Spartan will be seeing her on Leno tonight. Tell me what you think of her, and also what you thought of Jason. He's really cool-looking (he has dreadlocks). And he has beautiful eyes.

So now, American Idol has become the Battle of the Davids: David Archuleta vs. David Cook, the first all-male finale since season 2. Go Archie! Yay!

Not much has gone on, except for prom. It was last weekend. It was amazing.

I graduate next weekend! Yay!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

That's all.

Hasta.

-Archie's other performance on AI this week, which he dedicated to his mom.....awww!

Today I did some shopping........shopping for my new Wal-Mart uniform, and 2 pairs of shoes, and Anneliese's graduation card.

And I've spent some time on the Arch Angel boards.....woot woot. I am absolutely crazy about him....... He's such a sweetheart, amazing, an angel, an inspiration, and more. I could go on for hours about why I love him, but I already did that in the last entry. .

Tonight I watched the Zoey 101 series finale movie, "Chasing Zoey". It was exciting and tied up all the loose ends.

I think I'm going to go to bed....good night.

Hasta.

-I'm listening to this song as we speak......David Archuleta has the voice of an angel! He's absolutely perfect in every way. I will tell you about why he's so perfect later.

Today I'm going shopping for a graduation card for my friend Anneliese, and a necklace. Her senior recital/graduation party is tommorrow, and I told her I'd go. She plays violin and piano, and also sings (altho she's not going to for her recital).

The necklace I'm going to send to David is one similar to one I wear: a ring on a chain, and the ring has one word on it. Mine says "dream", but the one I'm getting for David will say "inspire", since he's an inspiration to all of us.

I guess I'll tell you why he's so perfect:

I was reading a news article about him on his message boards on americanidol.com, and his neighbor told the paper about a time that David came over to her house and raked her leaves because she was pregnant and due soon. He wouldn't even accept a popsicle for the work he did. That just shows how big his heart is. It makes me want to cry.

He also said in an interview that his biggest pet peeve is litterers! I hate them too. So I make sure not to litter, especially when there's a trash can 5 feet away.

He has helped me learn to smile again through some of the darker points of this year. I won't go into detail about that, but let me tell you, it was not very bright and sunny. David's music and voice has made me smile again.

I'm a little lost in thought right now.....I should listen to another song.

Hasta.

-that song has been stuck in my head for two days straight, and now I have two versions of it on my iPod: a live version by the original artist, Neil Diamond, and the studio version recorded by American Idol contestant David Archuleta, who's also my future husband.

Spartan might be interested to know that all of the top 12 AI contestants have studio recordings of the songs they sing on the show avaliable for purchase in the iTunes store. So he can listen to songs by Kristy Lee Cook, Carly Smithson and the most recent cast-off, Brooke White, who I'm guessing will be on Leno tonight.

I have studio versions of some of Carly's songs: her top 10 performance ("Total Eclipse of the Heart), her top 9 performance ("Here You Come Again"), her song for Idol Gives Back ("The Show Must Go On"), and her top 7 performance ("Without You"). I have yet to get her last performance ("Superstar"). And also a couple of songs by David Archuleta (the one in my title, "Sweet Caroline", which he performed this week, and also "Angels", which he sang and played piano for IGB), and will be owning one more soon!

I have to go to an appointment now.

Hasta.

I finally got Carrie's new CD yesterday...I'm going to tell what I like about each song on the album:

1. "Flat On The Floor" I like this because it's upbeat and fun.

2. "All-American Girl" This is upbeat and fun, and I like the story it tells.

3. "So Small" kinda sad and good, but I love it.

4. "Just a Dream" this is a really sad song, but I still like it.

5. "Get Out Of This Town" I liked the beat, and the rock-edgy feel to it.

6. "Crazy Dreams" really catchy and will probably get stuck in my head.

7. "I Know You Won't" I like this because it's pretty and the message is true.

8. "Last Name" one of my friends on the AI site mentioned she couldn't wait for the video. I can't either, since this is a song you can rock out to.

9. "You Won't Find This" I like the beat of this, and the words go along well with it.

10. "I Told You So" this is kind of a sad song, but I liked it.

11 "The More Boys I Meet" this is really catchy and fun.

12. "Twisted" Kind of has an edgy feel to it, but I liked it.

13. "Wheel of the World" It's really pretty and nice.

I have a job interview today at Wal-Mart.....wish me luck!

Hasta.
