I'm not sure she was really top 4 material, but she was certainly one of my favorites. She also happened to be in very fun numbers.
I just think it's rather odd that a nation that prides itself on its virility should feel compelled to strap on forty pounds of protective gear just in order to play rugby.

Sara was in a lot of fun numbers. I still have a lot of love for that old school hip hop number she did with Danny. I don't care that the judges didn't like it. The t-shirts with the puffy paint? Fat gold ropes? Kangol hats? Push It? I believe they even did the worm in that routine. Shane Sparks turned it out with that one.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
Yay, Jeanine!
I managed to not get spoiled by dint of not going on the internet at all for two days until I was finally able to watch late last night. Totally pleased with both the result and how it went down. Thank goodness, America!
I was equally befuddled by some of the "favorites" choices. I definitely think there were some weaker pieces this year overall, so the finale was a bit subdued. But I really enjoy seeing the dancers redo the choreography, especially with dancers like Jeanine who have blossomed so much during the process. They're a different dancer from when they started, and they bring a different energy to an established piece.
I know that the dancers want a chance to show what they do, themselves. But I wish there was room in the program for choreographed solos too. I think we would learn a lot about a dancer by how she responds to an individual choreographed piece of material.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I think I'm actually going to enjoy the rest of the season of Big Brother.

Huh. I realized tonight, despite having followed all the episodes, I completely spaced on watching the finale of the Next Food Network Star. Guess I really was invested?

I actually caught her show today and it was...not bad. I'd watch it again, and I can see making things or getting ideas from it.
