Thinking about 'American Idol' reminds me of some scary movie having Simon being shot. All the hype I had heard about some local town guy making it into the finals at 'American Idol' visiting Mt. Prospect sounded to be honest, kind of dumb. All the stores rushing to make banners and having to drive around Northwest Highway didn't seem like it was necessary. I don't get a parade when I do something good. Walking into school this past friday, it seemed like another long weekend ahead of me. Little did I know later on that day we (Vanguard High School) would be visited by the famous Lee Dewyze. Gathering around and waiting impatiently for him to arrive would soon pay off. From a distance sirens went off, as two police motorcycles approached the Forest View parking lot with a limo following. Sure enough, after minutes of being parked, here came a local town guy who had seem to make his dreams a reality. Vanguard Students rushed to amazement to Lee with hugs and handshakes. I then realized this guy deserved whatever he had planned for him that day. Hard work and patience does pay off. A local 'Joe' like you and I, had made it big time.
