****(cue music. ryan seacrest speaking)

entering our judging room is 19-year old bebeng palis. the biology student from los baños who won our hearts over with her highly qualified nmat score and GWA did quite well in hollywood week and now, she twists her fingers in anticipation as she sits herself down in front of the jduges.

BEBENG: Hi judges.
PAULA: Hi there Bebeng
RANDY: Yo dawg
CARA: Wow, you look nice today
B: Thank you, Cara!
SIMON: Now, shall we get on with it?
B: Oh, ok then. shoot me.
S: I'm gonna be really honest with you. We really liked you this season.
C: But you do emanate this vibe that says "ooh, stay away from me"
B: Uhuh, uhuh...
R: So, dawg...

(meaningful pause)

R: YOU GOT IN! WHOOOOO WELCOME TO SEASON 8!

*******

(ryan seacrest speaking)

from about eight thousand auditions from eight different cities, 226 talented people were able to pass the dreaded hollywood week. before you are the first contestants and you will be the ones to decide which ones of them will be able to get into the Philippine General Hospital.

This. Is Med School Idol.

(after the first six contestants...)

now, PGH, please welcome our seventh contestant, the wonderful bebeng palis.

"Hi, I'm bebeng. I'm 19 years old and I'm from Los Baños. I applied for this hospital because it is my dream to become a doctor and I believe that your school is the best in the country. If you guys pick me to get in, i will work my hardest to become one of the prides and glories of this hospital."

(after all the performances)

now it is time to vote. PGH faculty, the decision is yours. which of these hopefuls will you want to get in?

(during the eliminations show, ryan seacrest speaking again)

now, bebeng, you sang "keep breathing". all the judges liked your performance. however, did the entire faculty like you as well?

Bebeng.

The faculty voted..

and you did not get in.

****end show

ganun siguro ang nararamdaman ng mga taong naeeliminate sa american idol. yung parang lahat ng pangarap mo gumuguho sa unahan mo. tapos hindi mo na alam yung dapat mong gawin kahit matagal mo nang inisip yung back-up plan mo in case na hindi mag-work out yung first choice mo.

malungkot. malungkot talaga. ngayon hindi ko na alam kung anung dapat kong gawin. do i wait a year to try again? or do i pick a school now?

right now, i really have no idea.
