| I'd do it differently if I had to do it over again. I would have worked a lot harder on my dancing skills. I knew I could sing, but I didn't think that dancing would be such a big part of it. It was a really positive experience, though, because now I know what I really want to do with my life. After being on "Making the Band", I made it into another group, called "Unlimited". We're recording now, and things are going really well. |

| Looking back on everything, I don't think Iwas even close to making the eight. My choreography scores were really high, but vocally, I know I wasn't strong enough. Even though I didn't make it, my plan is still to be a huge star. Since "Making the Band" Icompiled a demo CD. I'm shopping myself as a solo artist. |

| If I had a chance to do it over again, I would definitely practice more, and I would have been more careful at track practice! I had a great time, though, I met a lot of people, and I got a little glimpse of what the music industry is like. Since then I got an internship at Disney World, so hopefully I can continue to pursue music in O-Town itself. |

| When they picked the eight, and I wasn't one of them, I was very supportive to the guys who made it, but it was killing me inside. The guys that I bonded most were all up on the stage. I wanted to be there too. Overall, it was an incredible experience. It was the most positive experience I could have had even though it didn't work out the way I wanted it to. It made me fifty times stronger than I am because I always turn rejection into motivation. |
