moaI have neither the means (no TV) nor the inclination to follow Swedish Idol, but a comment made on a forum I visit made me go youtube-ing for videos of the final three contestants. I didn't like any one of them very much. What I am wondering is WHY THE HELL THIS GUY is not one of them?!
Singing You're the Voice, Imagine, The Scientist, Grace Kelly, Baby one more time, Roxanne, Livin' on the Edge, I don't feel like dancing, a bad quality Live and Let Die, and California dreamin.
SERIOUSLY, SWEDISH PEOPLE. WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU. D: D: I especially like... okay, let me put it this way, Grace Kelly, The Scientist and Imagine were good, the others, I kind of almost loved. <3 Okay, so I especially liked his take on Baby one more time, he gave it a seriousness I didn't think it had.

The fan fiction thing? I kind of blew that, believe it or not. I had to use an article about real person fic written about a popular Swedish artist (another Idol contestant, heh) as a starting point, so I kind of went into bandslash (YEAH I KNOW WTF) and LotRiPS, and via a little side trip into Dan/Emma to Harry Potter and TV show fic. But I made the mistake of thinking I didn't have to really prepare this thing, as I know the subject inside and out, which meant I was kind of rambly and unfocused. >.< Teacher said that what I said was good, but it took me too long to actually say it, so I... passed. But that was it. Which kind of sucks, since I've got an A on everything else.
But that's irony for you! Scraping a pass the one time you actually know what you're talking about, and getting A's when you're just pulling things out of your ass.
