Start each day on a positive note and try to remain focus in-spite of all the negative things that may be happening around you. Remember not everyone you encounter is going to leave you with a pleasant experience. Sometimes in life we have to take the bitter with the sweet. Just remain focused on what it is that you seek to achieve and do not let anyone steal your joy.

The X Factor
Last week people went on and on about Rachael being eliminated from the X Factor. Although it was America‘s fault for not voting enough to keep her on the show, people sought to blame Nicole. I still cannot understand why people had a problem with the person receiving the least votes going home. Would they feel the same way if they were actually in the competition? The thing is young Rachael is a star in the making. She is going to be a success story with or without the X Factor. Here she is on the red carpet at the CNN Heroes Award in LA. The X F actor is now behind her and she is moving on to bigger things. Those of you who are still blaming Nicole for Rachael not being in the competition; my advice to you, take a page from Rachael’s book and move on already!

The X Factor
Last night was a very dramatic night on the X Factor. It was a night of a lot of tension, joy and disappointment. That said people need to understand that this is a competition and there can only be one winner and for that to happen some people are going to have to go home. After Wednesday night’s performances America voted; Melanie Amaro, Josh Krajcik and Chris Rene were sent through leaving Marcus Canty and Rachael Crow in the bottom two. The two sang their hearts out for survival making it hard for the judges to choose as they both did so well. Needless to say this resulted in a deadlock, leaving the final decision with America and how they voted. As it turned out Rachael Crow received the least votes and the poor girl was completely devastated. She broke down in tears and fell to the floor. Nicole too appeared upset and in tears.
Marcus Canty miraculously survived three weeks of being in the bottom two and will go on to the semi-finals. Fans of Rachael are blaming Nicole for Rachael being sent home. These fans need to be realistic; they had the opportunity to vote to keep her in the competition, they obviously did not make use of the chance and by not voting they are the ones responsible for her going home and not Nicole! But then I guess it is easier to put the blame on someone else!

The X Factor
Last night saw each contestant on the X Factor performing two songs, one of which they had only twenty-four hours to prepare for. There was nothing really spectacular about last night’s performances. The contestants more or less held their own. My top picks of the night are Melanie Amaro followed by Josh Krajcik. Rachael Crow is still very much in the competition. The two contestants who I believe will be in the bottom two are Chris Rene and Marcus Canty. Marcus Canty is a great singer but he has so far been unable to get the votes of America. He has been in the bottom two twice and there is the possibility that if he finds himself once more in the bottom two, he is going to go home tonight.

Monday Night Raw
Randy Orton continues to allow Wade Barrett to play mind games with him and once again the distraction from Wade Barrett caused him to lose his match with The Miz in a count out last night on Monday Night Raw. John Laurinaitis, according to Punk, is one of the most boring general managers and I have to agree with him. Where excitement is concerned John Laurinaitis is clueless. Last night John Cena once again displayed that caring part of his personality in his attempt to help Zack Rider to get a chance at a title match. It was somewhat hilarious that at the end of the match with Mark Henry it took Rider a while to realize that he had won the match. Now on the subject of Kevin Nash; I can understand giving him a match, but against Santino Marella? Why wasn’t a more evenly matched opponent found for that match? After the singing of the contract C M Punk gave The Miz and Alberto Del Rio a preview of what to expect at their TLC Paper View Match. Will Punk be able to hold on to the title? We will find out the answer to that question at TLC!
The X Factor
Things are really heating up on the X Factor and the fight to stay on is getting more intense. Melanie Amaro as was expected safely made it through. So did Josh Krajcik and Rachael Crow. Chris Rene surprisingly made it through. The fact that he made it through I believe negatively impacted on Drew’s chances of staying in the competition because someone had to leave and with the choice being between Marcus Canty and Drew; it came as no surprise that Marcus was given the edge over Drew. Simeon tried to play mind games with Nicole and Paula, saying he took full responsibility and that it was his fault Drew found herself in the position she was in. No one fell for it and both voted for Drew to go home. I believe the person who received the shock of the night was Astro who received the least votes and was sent home. I hope last night will serve as a valuable lesson to Astro; it is better to be in the bottom two than to not be in the competition at all!
The X Factor
Last night was Michael Jackson Night on the X Factor where contestants were asked to perform a song done by the late superstar. Josh Krajcik although not quite in his comfort zone gave a good performance of ‘Dirty Diana”. Marcus Canty song I felt was not the best song for him given the fact that last week he was in the bottom two. I think he might have done better with a more popular song. I did not quite feel Rachael Crow “Can You Feel It” Last night’s performance was definitely not one of her best. Chris Rene’s vocals were not that good, he is not the greatest singer, will America keep him around? Tonight will tell. Drew gave a very good performance of “Billie Jean”. It was really good. Astro took the song ‘Black and White’ and really made it is own. One cannot deny the fact that he is really very talented. However the performance of the night came from Melanie Amaro. Her performance was the best of the night. America has voted and the question now is, which two contestants are going home tonight?
Monday Night Raw

Last night The Miz once again displayed an act of cowardice when he made a sneak attack on John Morrison before the start of their match, injuring his leg. Was it a situation that The Miz did not feel he was capable of beating Morrison man to man, one on one why he had to attack him from behind? Despite fighting at a disadvantage Morrison put up a good fight; however the injury had been done and he lost to the Miz. Dolph Ziggler with a little help from Wade Barrett defeated Randy Orton. The match of the night however was that between Alberto Del Rio and CM Punk. It was an exciting matching with near falls after near falls as both men gave it all they got trying to win the match. It was a well fought match and in the end Punk came out victorious, retaining the WWE Title.
Thought For Today
So I recommend having fun, because there is nothing better for people in this world than to eat drink and enjoy life. That way they will experience some happiness along with all the hard work God gives them under the sun.
Survivor Series was yet another entertaining paper view. CM Punk fought Alberto Del Rio tooth and nails to win the WWE Championship. I guess now we will stop hearing Alberto saying it is his destiny to hold the title. Alberto’s ring announcer is the male version of Vicky Guerrero, the only thing missing is the screams! Mark Henry took the cowardly way out to retain his World Heavy Championship Title. It was a mean blow; but people like Mark Henry usually end up getting exactly what they deserve and he experienced his share of Karma. The much anticipated exciting match with the Rock teaming up with John Cena against R Truth and The Miz was anything but exciting. From the word go the Rock made it all about him, he wanted to shine, he wanted everyone to focus on him so the whole purpose of the match waned into insignificance; it was all about the Rock. Needless to say it was a disappointing match, it lacked the excitement everyone including myself had anticipated. At the end of the match in his true egoistic fashion he gave Cena the “Rock Bottom” I hope in the future Cena will choose more carefully when looking for a tag team partner. Some people’s egos are just too big to make them good team players.
