DWTS

Well, the finals of dwts are tonight... actually I guess they've started already :) Anyway, I'm really mad that Joanna and Derek were voted off last week, because Derek would have choreographed an awesome freestyle! Plus Joanna (and Derek) is just awesome. The ONLY reason they're gone is because Kelly and Donny got pity votes... I was going to do a "Why To Love Joanna" post this week, but I guess now I'll just do them with the finalists.
So now the finals will be pretty boring... Mya's freestyle will be amazing, IF Dmitry doesn't mess up the choreography. Donny's will be entertaining, but the technique won't be great. Kelly's will be boring. But Donny and Kelly (and Dmitry) could still surprise me and be awesome.
I can't wait to see all the stars that got voted off at the results show :) Does anyone know if ALL the stars are coming back, or just some of them? Because if it's all, that's a LOT of stars, and some of them can't dance all that well (and that's putting it mildly...)
That's all for now... This is completely random, but I have a Christmas carol that we're singing in choir running through my head non-stop right now. It's a really annoying song, too. Oh, and I'm shadowing at City College tomorrow (It's a high school, if you didn't know that). And one last thing... Is anyone reading this doing NaNoWriMo? Leave a comment if you are... OK, bye!

Gymnastics Worth Watching 1 - Men's Rhythmics?

When you think of rhythmic gymnastics, you don't usually think of men... but these Japanese men are amazing. The dance, the elements, the synchronization, everything.






Can it even be considered rhythmics, though? There's no apparatus, and there seem to be a few elements taken from acrobatics, as well as some difficult tumbling.
Whatever it is, it's still amazing!

A Few Reasons To Love Aaron Carter

Well, Aaron Cater got voted off dwts, just as I predicted (along with the rest of the world). Here are a few of my fave dances...

Week 2, quickstep (must watch)


Week 6, waltz


Week 8, foxtrot (not so sure about what Karina's wearing, though!)

Just Because...

40 years of Sesame Street...





















Sasha's out...

Sasha Cohen withdrew from Skate America (because of the same injury as before), and Emily Hughes will take her place. This means that nationals (the qualifying event for the Olympics) will be her first competition since worlds in 2006.
Just wondering - does this mean that Emily will be automatically qualified for nationals?

DWTS final 5

Out of my original final 5, Natalie and Mark got voted off, but everyone else is still here... I'm MAD that they're gone. Especially Mark, because that was NOT FAIR!


So, having not watched this weeks dances, but having read a review, here is my prediction for where the final 5 will place.

5. Aaron and Karina
4. Kelly and Louis
3. Donny and Kym
2. Mya and Dmitry
1. Joanna and Derek


Places 3, 2, and 1 are temporary predictions, but I wanted to get something out there.

Oh, and congrats to Mya for getting the first perfect 30 of the season!
