Has anyone watched the show called “Are You Smarter Than a 5th Grader” on Astro’s Starworld? Don’t you think the kids are just so smart? Plus they’re so adorable especially Kyle, the one with glasses. He’s my favourite. I just wanna pinch his cheeks! Hehehe…Another favourite of mine is Alana but she can be very cocky sometimes.

Watching the show makes me wonder whether Americans are that dumb. I’m not saying all Americans are dumb (well, maybe just the ones who voted for President Bush in the last election) but the answers that they gave on the show are just so stupid sometimes. One guy even had to think for a couple of secs when asked what is 5 X 2. I mean come on!

Do you guys watch American Idol 7? Who’s your favourite Idol? I’m rooting for David Cook. He is such a talented and versatile performer. When he sang Mariah Carey’s Always be My Baby and Andrew Lloyd Webber’s Music of the Night, I had tears in my eyes and goosebumps all over my body! But I know for sure he won’t win because Americans are voting for David Archuleta right now. He is a good singer no doubt but he’s not a performer or at least not as versatile as Cook. He sings ballads really well but that’s about it. To me it doesn’t matter who wins AI because I know Cook will land himself a record deal, just like Daughtry did. I mean have you heard of Taylor Hicks since he won AI? Or even Blake Lewis? Yeah they made an album but Hicks got cut off from his record label because of poor album sales.

So I’m definitely rooting for David Cook.

Hubby and I are also hooked on Channel 703 esp. the Restaurant Makeover show and Miami Ink and LA Ink on Channel 707. The tattoo designs are really good. If Muslims could have tattoos I would definitely have one. I think la. Errrmm…it’s not that painful right? Hehehe…
