Back to work today.  It was a little rough getting up this morning.  Once at work it was another boring day,  helping Michael clean his rooms.  I got out early again, 3pm and then walked around a little because I had to go back at 4:45 to meet up with Stephanie because we had to get going to The X-Factor.  It was about a 45 minute walk to Fox Studios from work.  We found Sarah wondering on the way and we got lost a little too but we eventually found the studio and had to then wait in line another hour and a half until we got into the building.  The people were oddly nice.  I feel like if we were to do to American Idol the workers would not be as nice as these people were, offering people to get out of line to get water, use the bathroom, get a snack.  It was a little strange to us but really nice.  Once finally in our seats (last row but still could see everything) there was a comedian who was pretty funny entertaining us and then the host came out and started promo's where we had to do a lot of screaming (for people we had no idea who they were).  Once the show started it was a lot of fun.  2 Australian artists sang and then the 2 contestants in the bottom sang as well.  They were pretty good.  It was a lot like American Idol, yet a lot more laid back.  After the show we had an hour walk home so half way home we stopped at a Mexican Restaurant and I got a burrito (which was AMAZING). By the time we arrived home it was almost 11pm so it was time for bed.  A busy day of walking but a lot of fun!
