anyone who’s been reading my blog knows that i’m totally obsessed with ECLIPSE (the Twilight Saga in general). yeah whatevur.. i know what you’re thinking.. i can hear your sarcastic laughs now… but i can’t help it! so, anyways.. i just saw it today with my friends, (i wanted to watch the midnight screening when i heard about it, but i already reserved tickets for the first screening time in the morning.. oh well) and i’m glad it didn’t disappoint me.

as i’ve stated before, Eclipse is my favorite book from the saga. it’s the peak of the Edward-Bella-Jacob triangle and pretty much the climax of everything. in this installment, we get to know more the history of the Quileute Tribe; and Jasper’s “new-born vampire army” days were revealed, as well as Rosalie’s past. there’s a bigger possibility that guys will enjoy this movie while watching it with their girl friends since it has more suspense and action in it..

for those of you who still haven’t seen the movie, i definitely recommend it!!! trust me, it won’t totally frustrate the haters. hihi..

Another American Idol has just been proclaimed!!!
Was it the paint salesman? or was it the single mom?

We’ve seen how Lee DeWyze (Mt. Prospect, IL) evolved from shy guy to a potential winner. And we’ve witnessed how Crystal Bowersox (Toledo, OH) remained consistently good throughout the season. They both auditioned from Chicago on the same day, both have come a long way in this competition, both of them are after one title and only less than 2% of the votes separated them… so, who won?

Dressed as high school kids, the Top 12 opened the show with “School’s Out” along with Orianthi, who looked so cute in her pigtails by the way, and Alice Cooper himself.

Other legendary acts who did cameos were The Bee Gees (who sang with Siobhan Magnus and Aaron Kelly), Michael McDonald (who sang with Michael “Big Mike” Lynch), Daryl Hall & John Oates (who sang with the top 6 guys), Chicago (who sang with Lee DeWyze) and Joe Cocker (who sang with Crystal and Lee).

There were also performances by season 8 winner Kris Allen, Christina Aguilera (with the top 6 girls), season 4 winner Carrie Underwood, and Janet Jackson (with the top 12); but my favorites of the night? Crystal Bowersox with Alanis Morissette (“Ironic” and “You Oughta Know”) and Casey James with Bret Michaels (“Every Rose Has Its Thorns”). Can you say perfect combinations?
