Paula Abdul: Life Judge

“Your eggs shine, Christopher,” she said. “I could tell that you gave your all to the eggs, and that’s what I like about you—because you give your all and you shine, just like your eggs shine. Way to go, Christopher! Way to go!”

Nobody had ever told me that I shined before. I felt awesome.

“My pleasure,” she replied. “You have any donuts?”
