   Hey all!

   Well, to those who sent me addys, I got your cards off. I had really hoped to do more than that to let you all know how much I appreciate your support, but again, EPIC fail. Sighh....

   But I did make them myself and I truly hope you enjoy them as much as I enjoyed making them!  :)

   As for a song choice for the audition, I am focusing on what acapella song to do for the general audition first and foremost, because that is the true make or break moment for anyone auditioning. And so many songs just don't go over well without music. I am thinking about trying a scaled down version of "My Immortal" if I can keep the haunting quality with no background music to help me out.

   And as funny as I think the idea of doing "Maybe This Time" is, it's not an option for the first go around in front of the big judges. So that song choice decision will come after I nail down the first one.

   And yes, I will go a bit more dressed up this time. I will probably still wear jeans, but dark spanky new ones with my black or brown boots, and a nice top. I still want to be comfortable in what I wear, but not get all of the flack from last year (even though it couldn't be helped).

   And dear gods, my hair. I am going with something straight foreward, sleeked down, put behind my ears I think. Something simple in case I need to deal with it before going in front of any cameras.

   So there you have it. I hope you all have a WONDERFUL holiday week this week!  Hugs, Kari  :}

Happy Holidays and Blessed Be Kari!

I'm sure you will pick an excellent choice and I have already told all my friends and family to watch out for the show and send you all the positive good vibes we can! ;)

Just a thought, but for the hair, how about a quick trip to a good stylist & ask for a type of cut, maybe a bit shorter, that will keep a bit of style without curl or fuss, something that maybe frames your face & maybe a bet shorter with the bangs so the audience can see those pretty eyes?? Anybody else got any thoughts on that? Jeans & boots, yeah, pick a really pretty top. Don't think I could wait around it boots, though, I'd have to go with some kind of flat or loafer to be comfy. That first song's gotta be the hard part, 2nd timers should get a pass on that!

Kari, sorry, I've a bad feeling I may have accidentally deleted your e-mail..... I hit the wrong key by mistake & emptied the whole thing & now I can't find the e-mail you sent me!! I hate to be a pain, but could you please re-send it? (Hope you can!) Pretty sure yours was in that bunch - I meant to save & deleted in error.

Kari-I just got your Christmas card-lovely! Yours is the third homemade card I've received so far and homemade cards make a better statement than store bought cards. Thank you! Now about your audtion: acappella is the true test for a great singer like yourself and I think you got what it takes. A scaled down version of "My Immortal" sounds like a good choice. I know that you'll nail the audition-now, if they don't pull that nonsense at the airport like they did before-you should go further in the competition. I'll be watching for you and rooting for you.

Kari, thankyou so much for the beautiful Christmas card! I love the idea of a scaled down acapella "My Immortal" for your audition. The song is so haunting. Have a Merry, Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
