I know for a fact that he's on an extreme end of the spectrum. Either he's going to "suck" very badly or he's going to do a fantastic job at singing.

I'm leaning more toward the "being disliked" end of the spectrum because he's going to sing opera, and I'm sure many people have a pre-determination of whether they like opera or not.

*after singing*


He was definitely not what I expected. He didn't seem as well put together as other opera singers and although he had quite the vibratto (sp?), he was amazing. He contradicted what I expected of him, as well as what the judges expected.

His persona didn't seem too outgoing or heartfelt, possibly because of his facial expressions and his bodily movements, but that was well brought about when he sang, because it sounded very passionate and from the heart.






THE PAINTING!!!!!

It might be out of the ordinary, but what I get from this picture is a person trying to make a statement about the fact that you can not avoid the unavoidable. Problems, conflicts and tragedy in life, just like guns, are everywhere. One can not avoid these things by simply walking away or pretending they're not there. Everywhere one goes there's going to be a problem, even in the "best" of places.




STAR TREK!!!!

"That guy was cute" was my first impression. I hated Star Trek when I was younger. All the characters were ugly and monotone and just plain boring! I don't think I ever sat through more than two minutes of that show when I was younger, mostly because there was a yucky looking guy with a hard-wrinkle face, and they had awkward yoda-like characters. I honestly think that the reason why I've never watched a Star Wars movie is because I always hated Star Trek and thought they'd be a lot alike. Perhaps I'm wrong, well I probably am wrong, but it was just an influence that I was never able to get rid of. They both seemed boring, they both start with STARS, it was "aaahh whatever" to me.
