Elimination

I was eliminated from [livejournal.com profile] therealljidol this week after a very intense voting period. I was tied for the bottom with two other people up until about five minutes before the polls closed when both of them gained one more vote than me. I was up against a tribe filled with all great entries. Everyone really stepped up their game this week and it showed.

[livejournal.com profile] therealljidol caused me to stretch myself and placed me out of my comfort zone with writing time and time again. I am very thankful that I had the opportunity to stretch my wings. I wrote my first ever fictional short story, which I'm actually thinking of expanding upon. If you came up to me a few months ago and said, "Bonnie, you are going ot write a story and you will be proud of it," I would have thought you were dreaming. Thank you all for reading and giving me the platform in which to write where I felt safe to do so.

I have met some really wonderful people while being part of [livejournal.com profile] therealljidol and have hopefully created some lasting friendships. :)

I will be sticking around to Home Game and who knows, maybe I will be given a 2nd chance later on in the season.

I'm glad to know you will stick around to home game and to maybe get a second chance. He did "second chance idol" last season (which is how I got in, as I didn't sign up at the beginning)

Thanks so much for putting up this sweet thank you note!

You can do more. That's always a good realization, isn't it?

Also: Do you keep the "~*::Meow::*~" in a text box that you always keep open so you can copy-and-paste it in?

Nope. I type it out every time.

I'm glad you will be sticking around! I hope you're given a second chance too. It's amazing what Idol can push you do. For your first fictional entry ever, I was very impressed. It's been a pleasure getting to know you and read you this season!

Sorry to see you go. I'm glad you felt you got so much out of idol though. That is the important thing. It's a great place to make friends and the writing prompts push all of us I think. I'm glad to hear you'll be sticking around to do the home game.

I'm so glad you're home gaming. Home gamers are automatically awesome. Fingers crossed for a second chance for you.

Heeee! Thank you :)
