Everyone knows that I was planning on attending the San Antonio audition for American Idol last weekend, but it ended up that I couldn’t afford the trip so I attended a tryout in Jackson, MS to compete for an all expense paid trip to the auditions in Birmingham!!!

“The Clarion-Ledger WDBD-Channel 40 auditioned local hopefuls on Aug. 19 for the Fox network’s American Idol competition at the Grandview Theatre in Madison, MS 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.”

I didn’t make it unfortunately… I did very well, but they were looking for people from the Jackson area, so even though I really believed they would call me back for the 2nd tryout, they didn’t :( They let me audition but were very clear that if they could find the 20 finalists among people that actually resided in the area, I wouldn’t get a call back. And, I didn’t get a call back :( It was a nice break though - I got to go shopping, got my haircut, went out to eat, and spent a lot of time with two very best friends, so it was WELL worth the trip.

I stayed at my best friend, Veronica’s, house and we went to the tryouts at 9:30 yesterday… it was SOOOOO hot and we stood outside for 3.5 hours in the sun waiting to get in. Finally, I auditioned… Oh well… maybe next year, right?! lol Anyway, we had a BLAST… me and Veronica see each other as often as we can which is usually about 2-3 times per year, but I haven’t seen Renitra in about 8 years or so… all 3 of us grew up together so the little mini-reunion was wonderful!

Here are the pictures… LOL y’all knew that was coming!!!
