The Sting
"Yeah, I've never got stung in my life." Today I couldn't of said this common quote of mine because...A WASP STUNG ME TODAY! It was this morning, I was in the garden, putting my scooter away with joy in my face, feeling jubilant as ever, when, in my Adidas sandals, my left foot and toes launched downward, pressing on the sandal,
when I felt the shock beneath my foot. It was like a shot, fortunately it wasn't "so" excruciating. The black and yellow striped devil, awkwardly sitting between 4 or 5 spikes; it was nestled quite tightly in the sandal. There was no time to think though, rapidly I shrieked a piercing sound, and began to hop on one foot, and have tears leak down. My mom was bewildered. She paused, and wondered what possibly could be happening. Then, I projected my voice and said, "Oh my gosh, I think I just got stung by a bee!! Ouch, it hurts!" I mumbled on, and my mom brought me inside and got me some ice, and told me it was a "wasp" that stung me. She went on the computer and looked up how to cure stings. I was grateful because I wasn't allergic to wasps. I knew most of my pain was coming from the "surprise" of getting stung. Actually, to be honest, I was glad that I finally had the experience of being stung. Weird..I know. After 20 minutes it didn't even hurt. BTW, I'm still not afraid of wasps, and I never will be, but I will try not to step on one ever again, it is painful and annoying!!! I'm not the person that runs away from the wasps/bees!!!(stupid...don't do that!) Alright, you've heard enough. "Bee" conscious!!! Ha ha...unfunny I know! Bye, and enjoy SUMMER!

Summer awaits!
I can smell the chlorine, not necessarily the greatest smell in the world, but it makes me ecstatic to finally know that summer is beginning. I abruptly tie my hair up into a high pony tail, slip on my Adidas sandals, and splash my face with the cleansing water. I except my physical appearance and I am amused with my funny facial expressions that reflect to the mirror. This is a good feeling. School is finally coming to an end, but I will still dread the half days, and the last 2 weeks. My hair is turning to more of my red shade instead of the brown. I'm getting more sleep, and waking up earlier. I do have the time to eat breakfast, unlike most of my friends, and I start each day with a wide grin(OK, not always, I have the cranky early morning (6:00 wakeups), but still. Things are getting better. In LAR we watched "Mean Girls" how unrealistic. Hopefully my grades are B+ or above on my final report card, but I'm not 100% sure that will be the case. He he. Now I'm mainly focusing on my lovely summer and sleep away camp. Oh, I just want it to begin. Bye school...summer awaits! On weekends the pool is open at my gym, and when we have the fortunate time to go, we go. I love the water slide...so fun! Skipping ahead, On a Friday, I walked home from school. But there were stupid boys in my way. They are so ornery. They had hoses and were like spraying people who walked by or even cars who drove bye. This was me, "Are you serious." I saw them planning to get me, so then I turned myself around in a different direction. As much as I wanted to be sprayed, (It was 90 degrees!) I even more so didn't want to get caught in the situation or be embarrassed. I just avoided the nerds! Then when I finally got home, I instantly stretched myself out on my icy couch and got a glass of water! June 24...you can wait that long Rachel...June 24th! I tell myself this. I want it to end, I want to go to camp, I wanna go in the water, I even want to get the feel of putting on sunscreen! I want our garden to grow even more. My mom is so good at gardening. When I walk home, waiting for me are green beans, blueberries(that still need to ripen but sometimes I eat them sour), strawberries, chives, chard, lettuce, radishes, peppers, and some herbs! Fresh..I like! After reading this much already, your are probably thinking, "pretty chaotic," if you are, then you are correct. Teachers are handing out so many quizzes all of a sudden this week, then sometimes we barely do anything in class? I don't get it! Nonplussed! But whatever the school year is winding down, and I'm trying hard not to complain. People are asking for camp addresses...exciting! Anyways, I bet your tired of hearing about my wait for summer already. Or not! Enjoy your summer. Hopefully your idea of fun is not math camp! See you...? Summer awaits!

LEE DEWYZE IS THE WINNER!
Everybody watching American Idol knew this day would come, between Lee and Crystal. This is one of the few times where both contestants are guaranteed to have a great career, regardless of whether they are the winner or not. Personally, I didn't think it even mattered who won, because they are both going to pursue their dreams and musical abilities. That being said, Crystal defiantly put her all into her performance on Tuesday night. In fact, she sounded a million times better than Lee, but Lee obviously won the popularity and sympathy vote. To continue on, Lee had performed extremely well many times, which had got him to this point, but Tuesday night, he pretty much sucked, and Crystal deserved it more than him. A lot of people were routing for Lee, and when I watched the episode, I was saying to myself, "It's over for Lee, Crystal's going to win." Crystal was shocked, Lee was shocked, and America was shocked. Lee did want it the most though. Crystal almost quit the competition, and wasn't even sure she was going to try out. Crystal did amazingly on Tuesday, and it was her best. Lee was more nervous than usual, I could tell. Lee and Crystal will both have good singing careers. Moving on, Simon Cowell... I don't know what the show will be like without him? We need the criticism. When Paula Abdul came out, it was awkward. When she was shown in the tapes she was well-spoken. Some of the videos about Simon Cowell were funny, others were stupid and so not funny that I had to hold my ears. Also there was only a 2% difference between the amount of votes Lee and Crystal received. Lee did win though. The "paint sales man." Lee did get nice compliments from Simon Cowell. Simon may have been trying to help Lee out, and was nice considering how "lame" Lee sounded. As a matter of fact, Simon may have said some of the nicest things to Lee Dewyze because he said it was his last time he was going to ever judge Lee. America did decide that...LEE DEWYZE WINS!!!!! Crystal was the runner up. So no more American Idol Buzz Reviews from Player 9 anymore until next season! See you soon bloggers! LEE WINS AMERICAN IDOL SEASON 9! Bye!

Who's the Winner of American Idol '10? FINAL 2
This Wednesday, May 19, the results were just all too predictable. The 2 people that actually have a desire, and confidence that they can win are Lee and Crystal not Casey. Casey was just bewildered to even be in the Top 3. He never really had high expectations for himself and didn't think he was capable of making it this far; the top 3! He knew that it would be him to go home, and not Lee or Crystal. Plus if you saw the videos of when the top 3 came home, I think all the people there to welcome Casey were all girls. That's what I saw, take a look, tell me if you can spot a man. That already limits who is voting for him. But you have to give a lot of the blame to Cara and Randy, for picking such a lame, same range, boring, dull love song for Casey to sing. Don't they get that, that music is not for Casey. It didn't have any pizazz. Crystal and Lee's did have fun upbeat tempos. I agreed with what Simon said on that Tuesday. But any how, you knew there was no chance of Casey being at a higher stage than Lee or Crystal. To continue, Casey never did really become confident on the stage. That is a key element to sucess and Casey just didn't get it. He knew it was him as well. On results night there wasn't even a dramatic effect when Ryan announced that Casey was no competing to be a winner. SO VOTE!!!!!! Its CRYSTAL OR LEE. WHO WILL BE YOUR NEXT AMERICAN IDOL FOR SEASON 9. an GOODBYE SIMON COWELL? STAY TUNED I HAVE A LOT TO WRITE FOR WEDNESDAY NIGHT's WINNER AND MORE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

TOP 3 AMERICAN IDOL
Wow bloggers. It's been a long time since the start of American Idol, and now we're down to 3 contestants or "artists" I should say. Sorry that I haven't been on my blog that recently, but I will still keep you updated on all the American Idol Buzz! This is the real deal now. So 2 weeks ago, Aaron Kelly was sent home. He wasn't my first choice of who I wanted to be sent home(Michael), but he was there a pretty long time, and deserved to go home. There was no way he was going to win anyways. But now I was desperate. I wanted Michael to go home so badly, and not be in the Top 3. Seriously I would have screamed for a week straight, if he had made it into the Top 3, which he didn't make it to this week for the results. He was a very amiable guy, good singer, just super boring song choices and not interesting or current, and he wasn't that great. Personally I disliked him in many ways, but he had a strong appeal apparently. Top 4, good for him. Real good for him. This week, on that Wednesday night, I was literally shaking with fear and my nerves shouted. I knew it was really either going to be Casey(who deserved to have a chance in the Top 3 because of his originality) or Michael who was going to be sent home. It was very obvious that Lee and Crystal were going to make it through. No doubt they'll be in the Top 2, if not there will be complete shock. But a sigh of relief hit me, when Casey was the first one sent to safety. Then it was clear that Michael was going to be sent home. Ryan Seacrest tried to make it dramatic as if there was going to be a real shocker, but the job was just way too hard. Michael Lynche standing with Lee and Crystal. Furthermore, finally it's the TOP 3!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Crystal????? Lee????? or Casey????? 3 unique vocalists compete in the singing competition. Soon the winner of American Idol will be revealed. Please vote on my blog right now!!!!! See you next week bloggers!
