I know you guys will appreciate the tragedy..... After the Australia Day concert, Guy went to a brand new club in town (that opened that same night). I know someone who got to dance with him. I could have gone to the club. I could have been that girl who danced with him. Every time I walk past it, I think about what could have been.....*sigh*

oh no!...i feel so sorry for you...my tradgedy isn't nearly as harsh as that one...but...
you know how every night on the Hot 30, they're doing a competition to win a singing lesson with Guy etc.? I wrote a song last night and called up and i got through, i think Max picked up and he asked me to sing the song...i sang it through (stuffed up like once) and after i'd finished i said "ummm...is it okay for a person who can't sing to enter a singing competition?" max said "yeah, but do you want to do this?...If you think you can sing on the radio, i'll let you through, but if you don't think you can do it, tell me now."
I paused before i said, "if you find three other people who you think are more confident than me, then don't bother ringing me back...but i'm a huge Guy fan and i might b able to get over it."
well...the comp came and went and i didn't get a call back...come to think of it...my song wasn't too good and i can't sing anyway...still...

Sorry to be dumb, but what is the prize? You get to sing the song you write with Guy?

Nah...the comp and prize are...
Comp - you have to write your own song with lyrics and tune to a topic that the Hot 30 hosts give you (so far they've been realli stupid...like...constipation and pashing etc.)
What you do - You write a song and ring up 1800151100 when the hosts tell you sometime in the show (7-10 every week night). Three peopl will be chosen to sing on the radio for a chance to win...
The Prize - Every night the best of the tree chosen to sing their song on the radio will recieve $300 worth of cds and copies of Just as I am and (i think) ABMH. After the two weeks (or the end of this week) the best of the winners from each night will win a singing lesson with Guy and record a duet (all i need is you) in the Hot 30 recording studios.
See why you have to be able to sing? You'd give Guy a bad name if you couldn't.

This may be embararrasing, but here's the song i wrote last nite (just remember i had like half an hour to write it) and i also dun know what sorta tune i put it to...some crap thing that i made up while singing it...
Swearing
I am the very model of a modern dirt-mouth having fun, And writing this song here has been the hardest thing I’ve ever done; I’m fourteen and my mum don’t like me swearing in our family’s home; Your killing me for taking back my only source of swearing (groan)
You say to wash your mouth with soap and not to say no dirty words In practising to write this song, I didn’t swear at my dog’s turds. I hope I do not muck this up, cause you know what will happen then. You’ll hear the words I cannot say, I’m sure you’ll count at least to 10.
I’m thanking you for giving me my daily swear requirement; But don’t do this to me again, I don’t think I’d survive torment. Do tell me if I’ve done this wrong, and please explain while doing it Just how the hell you write a song bout swearing without using sh…
It wos going to go to the tune of "modern major general" but then i read the terms and conditions and realised that i couldn't do that...
