X Factor winner

For all you X Factor (UK) fans (meaning no one but me and Sinead, and maybe Caitlin and Justin), Joe McElderry won!!! Yeah!!!! Too bad Stacey Solomon wasn't 2nd ... she has a great voice, but her stage presentability needs polishing. And Olly Murs? Actually I never thought he stood a chance ..... too much oohhs and aahs and "come on" .... he's a good entertainer but he needs to let go of those collateral noises he makes beside the song he sings. So Joe is going to sign a 5 million pound contract in the US. Like he's 18 yrs old and he's making almost US$7 million???? Sinead, go try out X Factor next year! Watch the announcement of the X Winner http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v7FIWMnlaUk and Joe's winning song http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7rwE8MH9kP0&feature=PlayList&p=iPSWjN5P6Vs watch Cheryl Cole his coach cry! and at the end all the finalists came back on stage ... Danyl, Jamie, Lucie, Lloyd ..... ok ok so I've been following X Factor for the past weeks .... well what else can you do when you're stuck in your room and need a break between studies? It's that feel-good factor that watching others make it big is a good booster that one day you can do it too! That's the Susan Boyle phenomenon.

Everyone was talking about Berlusconi's bash in the face .... mainly because most of our community is italian. Now that's a frightening lapse of security if someone could come up so close and bash the Italian PM in the face, breaking his nose, 2 teeth and cut his lips.

Meantime I'm having two important guests from Italy visiting. We had some time this afternoon sharing after 3 hours of meeting, and we discovered how much suffering we're all experiencing. It's such a difficult time when people are selfish and money-grabbing and ruthless ..... we can only pray. Anyway both ladies are very professional and we decided not to let setbacks block our work.

ok X Factor is over .... back to studies.
