From one Honor Society show to another....

*Update*

...So when you hand your favorite band a drawing made by you, and they tell you they're gonna put it up ~somewhere "special "and someone like idk... Kat says "I know the perfect place"...


You get kinda curious as to where it was actually placed.




So I randomly sent a message to Kat on facebook and said that I hope it didn't come off awkward but I was just really curious. She told me that my drawing, my beautiful, 18 hour masterpiece is on their bus in the window. I told her that that was cool and whatevs, and trying to give her a little hint to kindly take a pic for me, saying that I wish I could get out to another show and see it ;)


...Instead she told me that they were having another show November 12th in NYC and that I should go.



Psh... fat chance.


But then a lil miracle happened...

I was telling Ally all about what me and Kat said back and forth and when I said something about Nov. 12th, Al said "Kel let's go". And after thinking she was joking for a good 10 mins or so, she told me she was serious and we started making plans.


So after getting all excited...
to buying the ticket...
to counting down the days, hours, minutes...
On November 12th we made the 5 hour trip to NYC to see Honor Society. =D


Wednesday night, November 11th, I eventually got to Caity's house where Ash was, and where Al didn't show up til the morning.


Left later than usual, which is how we usually do these things so no need to stress out.

Hit the road with "Frank" [Ally's GPS] leading the way... I introduced a new game called PUSH, I giggled during a little study brush up for Caity given by Ally ["very good"]... and then a "Who's Hotter?" fight between Al and Caity over Nick Jonas and David Archuleta, that almost resulted in Ally having to ~walk to the venue. LOL.


Stopped a couple of times, but then we began to see that NYC skyline, not to mention the HUGE bridge Caity had to go over.
["Nothing's gonna happen on The Hudson!"
"A FREAKIN PLANE LANDED IN THE HUDSON!!!"]

But we also got to see Yankees Stadium which was pretty awesome!


Anywho [I say that a lot... Just a warning], we finally found The Fillmore at Irving Plaza and the conveniently located parking lot just around the corner. We let the men with the intimidating "swine flu" masks take PAM [Caity's car], and walked down toward the theater. And as I noticed a couple of ~gentlemen taking pictures with some girls, I was told to look before being pushed into oncoming traffic by lovely bff Ashley.... [I've forgiven her, I promise lol.]


But by the time we'd gotten our camera's out Jason and Michael were being pulled in by Kat and some other peeps. So we kept walking and then went right by Andy & Alex who were coming the opposite way closely followed by.... Willis =D ["puppyyyyyyyyyyyy!"]


We rounded the corner, and the line really wasn't bad at this point- it was only like 12:30. We stayed there for a bit before getting antsy to walk around. So when someone behind us showed up, we asked them to kindly save out spot while we took a walk in the neighborhood.


Hit starbucks first for a potty run. Went into Forever 21, where I was in heaven for a bout 10 mins before we left. Went to another store called "The Basement" that had a pretty amazing view of the city.


We went to Walgreens twice to put in pics to be done, and then again to not only fight the wind, but pick the pictures that Ash and Caity needed for the m&g.


We headed back and traded 2 by 2 to walk around or whatevs, including finding some hand warmers =D


After waiting, in the rain and wind strong enough to break Ally's umbrella she just bought..... We waited with other fans, and were waiting for Caity's friend Kevin to show up.


He was pretty late, but eventually made it around I wanna say 2/3? idr.


Anyways Caity, Kevin & Ally decided to go to Starbucks while me and Ash were nice enough to hold our spots. They were gone for a long while, but came back for a bit before having to go out again to get something to eat.


So me and Ash bonded with the girls behind us [Kristin & Ashley] , and someone that Ash knew [Nicole], as well as some others around us. It was a pretty good time, and even better when Honor Society stepped out of a black van and decided to say what's up to the fans before going in. And though we honestly weren't that far, we didn't get anywhere near them b/c a crowd formed around them, and they were pulled inside.


Note to all Fans. If you crowd around them you make it worse. You do realize if you'd just stood there they may have been able to move around a little right? *rolls eyes*


Anywhooooooooo, Still frozen, we waited, and the three missing links finally showed up again, to tell the beautiful tale of a short adventure where Kevin broke a toilet.... "into three pieces"... and they ran.


I don't think I've ever laughed so hard.



Since I was pretty oblivious about my meet and greet details [that's right MY meet and greet... I had to go by myself =( ], so I decided to go with Caity to ask someone what was going on with that while she tried to get a ticket for Kevin. Of course, they didn't know and then one guy was quite rude, and very unhelpful.


On our way back we realized that someone was missing from the group but re-appeared with a crowd of his own snapping pics with every gal in line.... awkwaaaaaaaaaaaaaard. We let them have their moments though, and I stood back with Ash while he finished up then went with Caity and Al to try and get another ticket for him.


Before I knew it they were back and I had to go stand in my designated line to get my Meet & Greet stuff.


The doors opened not too long after and though I was in a different line, I met up with the rest of them going in =)


SO then I checked my coat, got my merch I needed for the regular m&g before we all just kinda hung out in the back.


The back started to get filled up, and me & Ash decided to try and get up closer.


Impossible you say? HA! Psh... please.


If it hasn't worked for you, it's bc you don't have my skills.

By the end of the night we were 2nd row of people on Andy's side.

The only minor set back we had the whole night where basically teenies making Ash claustrophobic enough to freak out a little so I pulled her up. =D


The show itself. Amazing.

Even Esmee rocked it. I just remember liking her "Diva" song, and then of course "Outta Here". She had a really great voice too, and I highly recommend her to anyone who hasn't been able to see her live.


After she ended, it took a while... but once I heard "Empire State Of Mind", I knew that the show had begun =D



They came out right after the song ended, and went right into "Over You". I'm not one of those people that memorize set lists [or look them up... hey I'm lazy alright?] so I dunno the exact order, but it was pretty much all the good stuff... Me and Caity's song "2 Rebels", my favorite "Here Comes Trouble", the close second "Nobody has to Know", the sweet "Don't Close The Book", and then it tied all together of course with "See U In The Dark.


The highlights had to be being awkwardly stared at by Michael during "Why Didn't I?" "Full Moon Crazy" and "Sing For You'... [um hi?]


Jason singing an awesome cover of Kings Of Leon's "Use Somebody" =D

... and then there was Esmee Denters coming back out for "My Own Way". She did a great job singing with Michael, and at the very end, she said pretty much what every girl wanted to hear "He's single Ladies" =D [good girl]


After "See U In The Dark", they played "Empire State Of Mind" again complete with some ~moves before going off stage and the fans scattered.


We found the other 3 pretty easily, and I didn't really get to say much before the ones with the "golden wristbands" had to go back near the bar to get in line for the Private Meet & Greet.


I re-did my make up, and since Ashley was kind enough to lend me her phone, I texted the girls to let them know what was up.


As I made my way upstairs I was contemplating my idea for my picture. I hadn't really gotten a normal picture with the boys yet, but I had told the other Twinkle Douches that I would draw their names on a piece of paper for them to hold and make sad faces bc they couldn't be there with me.


The idea seemed kind of silly to me considering they were gonna meet them like 20 mins after I did, so I asked them if it would be ok if I just got a normal picture with them.



They said yes, and I decided that's what I was gonna do, before someoneeeee made me feel guilty and at the last minute I got my papers out with their names.


I literally got it out as the girl in front of me was taking her picture, and had enough time for that and spray some perfume, before Andy looked my way.


We said what's up? and he said "good to see you" as we hugged. Then Michael hugged me and said "hey good to see you again". [And an awkward hug at that considering he's a little an the short side and I'm just under 6 feet tall.... =X]


Then Jason also gave a hug, before I got to Alex, who was saying something to someone before looking over and giving me a big nuzzly hug. [I can die happy now].


Then I got the paper's out and asked them to make the sad faces for my picture...
and then had to explain it again...

Before I got this picture taken:


Apparently Michael didn't get the memo, but the others did including Alex who decided to tell us how he really felt, lol.


Anyways, they gave the papers back and I started to head down before I realized that I didn't have my camera. So I turned back around, and Alex handed it to me saying "Here you go sweetie..." and I said I knew I was forgetting something... lol. And then I left after he said "Don't worry about it I GOTCHU". *rolls eyes*



Went downstairs and told the girls I did what they wanted me to, and they got all excited and we had a good laugh over the pic. Then I asked where Kevin was and apparently he had left. Rude.


We headed upstairs slowly, but surely towards the top floor again [got a nice ~cardiovascular workout that night].


We swapped around to our order in line for the m&g before taking pics with Esmee [except me b/c I did it the first time]...

And so with it being Jason, Michael, Alex and Andy at the table, the order became Caity, Ashley me and then Ally at the end.



I didn't get to hear too much of Caity's, but I just remember Ashley telling Jason that she wanted him to draw a heart for a tattoo that she's getting, and he asked "Are You Sure?" She said it she was and he drew it then shoved the back of Ash's pic towards Michael before even telling him what it was for saying "Here draw a heart"... lol


When I got up to Jason I handed him the pic from Pearl River of us holding the picture...

He looked at it and then told me that it was on their bus right now, and it was awesome before getting up and hugging me and I didn't even ask him. =D


I then moved on to Michael who basically said the same thing, but he didn't say too much before I told him they had a really good show and asked for another hug to fill in the awkwardness that settled in. So he got up and hugged me and gave me a sweet lil backrub [oh?] before sitting back down. At this point I just remember discussing with Ally how rude it was having this girl behind us put her CDs right in FRONT of Ally for the boys to sign, and then looking at Alex "prepare" to draw and somewhat wonky heart. lol.


Then when I'd gotten to Alex, he said hello or whatevs and signed my picture before looking back up and saying something about "So you're our talented artist" =D [eeep! I'm 12 again]


He also said it was very good before I thanked him and went right on to Andy.


All I remember is him going "Didn't we see you just a few minutes ago?" I was like "Psh no... What are you talkin' about? No way.............. yeah yeah you did", before he left and said "Well it's great to see you again, hope to see you again soon" and then I headed out.


We all went down the stairs telling all of what happened.


We were also prepared to stay near the back door, but the long line would've made it a LONG wait and at 11:00 we had to get home.


So we picked up and paid for Pam to be released out of the garage, before Frank took us all sorts of wonky ways to get out of the city.


I fell asleep somewhere just outside of the city and woke up in Jersey stopping at a Days Inn. I guessed that the determination to get home, didn't really make go over to well, considering we actually wouldn't have gotten home til like 4/5...


But the rooms were full, and we tried to find a non-existant Best Western [wtf Frank?] in PA, that led us to a Quality Inn that was perfect.


It was only $100 so $25 each, for the night. And it was fairly nice excpet for the sketchy desk clerk who felt the need to lead us not only to our room... But IN our room, and out the other way. Asking if the hallway reminded us of "The Shining" and then showed us how to lock the door in a way that no one could get in [which we used].


We really just reminisced about the show before falling alseep and then waking up at about 8.


We got up, checked out and left. Made a couple of stops in between more PUSH games and coming up with out aka name KaCa [our initials].


So that was basically the whole trip.


And since then each and everyone of us has the WORST Post-Concert Depression that I think I have ever had.


It got so bad we almost made a trip to Boston this past Sunday.


We didn't do it. But it was fine.



I'm thinking the next adventure would have to be New Years Eve. Just waiting on a few stuff to be finalized, but I've said before that that would be THE show to go to, and we are going to try our best to make it happen. =D


Til then... we'll just have to see...

This whole one blog a month kick I'm on continue's...

So I actually started writing this before, but I never finished... I saw someone else write their review too so it made me want to do mine b/c no offense... My day was ~much better.

Anyways....

I got up at the "crack ass of dawn" Sunday morning on October 4th at 4 am after going to bed at midnight b/c of work just for Honor Society. *whew* I was TIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIRED... lol.

So I got up & ready before 5, and Ash picked me up at like quarter after/5:30ish.

We went by Caity's before hitting the road.

I fell asleep so the sunrise came and went, before we made a stop.

I was with Ash & her mom for a while before I went with Caity. Made the journey go by a lot faster and we really were there in Pearl River before we knew it...

[We also got a really funny twitter update from Alex lookin to find breakfast but ending up crashing two wedding receptions. What a silly bitch... ... But I pictured him doing it in his Ninja Turtles Snuggie =P]

We pulled in, and got our pretty much useless wristbands that guaranteed us to get into the concert... And do the charity walk.

Then we got in a long ass line of teenies and had to wait til they let us in...

The boys came out to do a soundcheck and even started to rock out to the All-American Rejects' "Move Along" =D.

They had to go back in to get ready for the show, so we still waited and waited, and then got some merch in between all the waiting.

Finally they let us in, when HS was supposed to be starting.

We kind of went towards the back of the crowd b/c there was no need for us to be squished like we could have been.

Radio DJ's and some contest people came out and talked for a bit, but FINALLY.... The ~gentlemen walked out and right onto stage before being introduced.
That's when the fun began. They rocked out every single song they performed... From "Over You" to "Where Are You Now", to "Nobody Has To Know" to my favorite "Here Comes Trouble"... Before "See U In The Dark" tied the whole thing up. And I think I took WAY too many pictures of some great faces like these:
LOL.

Well... anyways, when the show ended... Betches ran like it was their job just to get in line for the meet and greet...

We were towards the end, and it not only took long just to get up there... But I think they must've changed again and taken a shower or something b/c they took foreverrrrrrrrr to come back out.

When they finally did... it still went by pretty slow... But you can tell it was because they were taking time with like each and every fan.

We made friends with a 15 year old, her mom and their friend...?

But it was fun. [I love HS fans they're a lot nicer than JB fans]

When we finally got closer we distinguished out order and how we were gonna approach the gents, and I think Caity was first.

I was far behind the big USA pears backdrop so I don't know much of what happened with her other than Michael told her once again that she had a rather sweet smell coming from her, and she had a wonky eye in her pic that she had to re-do later.

Like I said, I couldn't see anything, but Ashley was standing next to Alex waiting for Caity to finish up. And I remember we were "fighting" or something and I stuck out my tongue. So she stuck it back out at me and flipped her hair... while Alex watched.

lol.

Then she did her thing. And somebody near me thought I asked him something when I didn't so we both got confused and so I really didn't see much of what happened with her.

Then Ashley was gone, and Alex looked over me [pretty much felt 12 years old again and had some fierce sexy music go though my head when he smiled and said hello]. I then, gave him a hug, and Michael a hug before I stopped them and showed them the poster that I made them.

They were all amazed and told me they liked it before Michael said "We get to keep this right?!" I giggled at him actin like a lil kid askin if he could get a new video game... and said "Absolutely I made it for you!" So there were some thank yous before we ended up taking our pic with it. =D
Then Kat grabbed it as I believe it was Michael that said "We're gonna have to put that some place special", and Kat said "I know the perfect place"

Then she handed it over to Lisa from SOM, and Mandy [yes that Mandy who I just noticed was off to the side.]

I went to the other side near Andy and talked to Ashley for a sec before I felt a tap on my shoulder from Andy asking if my MOM could use my camera.

I told him that was her [*pointing to Ash*] mom and then had to call ash over so Ash's mom could get her AMAZING picture. I'm jealous! =P

Then I remember her telling Michael were from Syracuse before asking them if we could all get a picture with them doing that "hand thingy". lol.

So we all went near our ~gentleman of preference and as I tried to match up with Michael, I kindaaaaaa left Alex hanging. Woopsie.

But then we all smiled and took this AMAZING picture.
Nothing could beat this meet and greet pic, it was truely the best picture with a celeb. Just too amazing for words.
Anywho... Lol.

We did have to eventually get out of there to get back home. =(
And the whole way, we just talked about our pics took some more.... got seperated and lost. Due to no cell phones, the only way we finally communicated was to use a Preble rest stop's pay phone. hahahaha. So wierd to have to pick it up when it rings FYI.
But this was definitely a trip to remember. I just wish Al could have been there. =( But believe me this wouldn't be the last time we'd see Honor Society...

Oh no. Definitely not the last time.

Having no phone... Sucks. Period.

... But the good thing about it is that you kind of miss all the drama.




I haven't had my phone for a whole week! It's truely been torture. I really want it back.......


Enough of my complaining though.......



Since the last time I wrote was when? for Jonas?.... Kelly?...



Well whenever.... I guess that I just forgot to mention that I saw/met Drew Seeley...


(Me and the rest of the Twinkle Douches, got him a sweet "Somebody From Syracuse Loves Me" shirt... The we ~haven't really seen him wear yet...... Not that we're bitter or anything............... *sigh*)



(PS Though no one really gave a shit but Tiffany Giardina opened up for him. Drew: "I'm gonna go ahead and bring Tiffany back out to sing with me". Crowd *in unison*: "Awwwwwwwwuuuuuuugh!!!" LMFAO. Classic)



...And Drake Bell at the Fair.


(Who's still sexy and whose next CD is gonna be AMAAAAAAZING. LOL =P)



Anywaysssss... I am not only back in school, but I am a full fledged working girl now!! Still at the place Where Everyday Matters.



It's not the world's most exciting job, but I like it. Keeps me busy, brings me my income and people are SOOOOOOOO Incredibly Nice... Most of the time it kicks my ass though. And between work and school... I'm always over-tired.



Blah.



School... Let's just not talk about it. Lol. But in a few words: Boring... I wanna quit... Same ol' shit every semester. But thankfully this time around I have Ashley in at least one class every school week. Sa-weeeet!



Soooo....


In concert news...


My next adventure is probably going to be by far the most awkwarrrrrd.



Initially, there had been a big she said, she said going back and forth between bffs Ashley and Caity.



And the few results of that she said, she said was that there's always a 2 vs. 2 in our group (which let's face it, there is but.... ya knowwww)... To "Look at Me, Look at Me"... To the accusation that we only use Caity for rides.



.............................



This resulted in me trying to convince the parents for a ride to a concert in Pearl River, this sunday, the 4th to see <3honor>


Not only did they refuse, but we almost thought it wouldn't be worth it.



HS' Pearl River show is actually part of an event called "Little Bit Of Sole", Which is a charity WALK.



So I was convinced that they're probably only gonna play 2/3 songs and probably no meet and greet. That really wouldn't be worth the 4 and 1/2 hour drive... Curiousity settled in.



Ash ended up contacting Joe (lol) from the event, who said that not only was Honor Society committed to playing an hour and a half set, but there was indeed a meet and greet, but no details yet.



So you think we'd be all set, but it can never be us without there being a problem...



Caity all of a sudden decided to tell me... Well tell me through Ashley anyway... That she wasn't going to take us. This decision came about involving something about her parents or money to be saved for a far superior adventure...



The Jonas Brothers coming to Rochester and Albany as a part of their 12 Days of Christmas Tour...



(Don't get me wrong, I'm excited for that fer sure but the realquestion here is........... Is Honor Society gonna open up for them again? Lol. JKKKK =P)



And bc I only live through what people say from what they've been texted, but either way I was mad.



In the way that I could have made a big scene in Ruby Tues that I did really... But Ash calmed my ass down by telling her that her mum was gonna take us... Kelly's happy again. =D



Just when I thought the sitch had been over and decided, Caity decided that she was gonna go (Thank God!!!), but from the comfort of her own vehicle (Why does Avril Lavigne have to make everything so complicated?!?!)



Well anyway, that's my story with all that nonsense and idk what to do with it. I just hope it'll be fun b/c all I need is good friends and at the end of the day, 4 hot gentlemen to make a good sunday day off.



One way or another, it's gonna happen. Lol.



Anyways after Honor society, I go to another" Honor" band... Honor Bright. They're next Friday... and then I'm pretty sure JB's gonna be next. Just Rochester though... ya know where there jackasses cancelled almost 2 years ago.



But the show I would wanna go to more than anything else... New Years Eve show with Honor Society in Hershey Park with "My Girls"!



It's truely THE show I would wanna go to.



*Crossing fingers to hope it happens*



I guess I'm kinda done goin on and on.



Blah... Life.



Peace out.

It won't be long til the summer's gone, Get your PARTY on...

Alright so I haven't written in a while and there's too much that has been missed...

Likeeeeee....

The big Family Vacation in Virginia Beach......Or Meeting David Henrie:
... But that was a while ago.

Now I'm older, wiser and OFFICIALLY EMPLOYED!

I went for a JCPenney interview and came out hired.

I've only been to training but so far, it's all good. =D

But have I fully given up my concert life? PSH.
PUH-LEASE.

After I was hired, I already felt like a jackass b/c I had to tell my interviewer that I was going to be out of town forrrrrr...
THE JONAS BROTHERS.

That's right, the time had finally come and gone, and it was an amazing trip.

It all kind of started with me begging for money to you know help pay for gas and have a place to sleep as well as silly things, like, ya know... food.

Tuesday night, I had Ashley at my house, and we went over to Caity's to stay over before the big LONG trip.

We ended up going to bed at 1 and woke up at like 5am.Niiiiiiice.

So tired as we were, we got ready and headed out about 6:30ish.

It was a pretty long ride but we tried to make it go by as fast as we possibly could.

And even through the stops, we made the time go by somehow.

Finally made it to the hotel, the Red Roof Inn.

Possibly the nicest Red Roof Inn in America.
Pretty sure.

Anyways, it was REALLY nice.

And we really kind of chilled, called the parents... And killed time by finding last names in the phone book, before getting ready to go.

The arena was only down the block or two making the drive a good long, like 3 minutes and that included parking. We stepped out amoung the teenies and the "Future Mrs. Jonas'", but also the furtre hookers of america, lookin madd fierce as usual.

We didn't have to wait long before the doors open and the screams began. And holy shit! The Nationwide Arena... NICE AS HELL!

I had to go around the thing to look for Janice [my favorite gal from Bamboozle and more], bc she had the table where you could pre-order Honor Society's "Fashionably Late" CD. And by pre-ordering that CD, you got to meet them after their set. =D

Couldn't find her, but in the midst of all my stress, I decided to take a look at the stage.

SWEET.
BABY.
JESUS.

It was HUGE and I couldn't believer that THIS stage was for the same band I saw a mall food court for the first time.

After the others took a trip to the merch table, we finally got to go down to our seats.

Now the thing about our tickets is that someone, who should not have any of the blame put on her b/c it honestly was a mistake [gee i wonder who... =P] got tickets for herself and her friend without making sure her other friend was going, and resulted in the seats being kind of apart.
...Whoops.

So when we get in, me and Caity found our seats:
Not too bad.
But then we got to see Ash's:
... Yeah hers was better.
=P

So we stayed for a bit, but then had to go back to our seats.
We saw Joe Jonas for a sec behind a curtain, and then that enabled us to inch a little closer to about where Ash was.

We couldn't make it up by the time Honor Society walked out and RIGHT buy Ash's aisle seat. Apparently she didn't really noticed that til she head butted Alex.
We eventually got to go up to where Ash was and squeezed in as Honor Society rocked on!

They were AMAZING and I was SOOOOO ready to meet them!
Right when they finished, they came back onto our side and their sweaty selves strutted down the aisle and I got high fives from all of them.

Including, my man.... Alexander Noyes. The sexy sweaty hands that play those drums like a fierce drumming god... *drool*

Anywaysssssssssssss...

After they went back in... The fierce betch band from South Korea, The Wonder Girls, came out so.... More high fives.

Then a helpful security guard pointed us in the direction of where to purchase the Honor Society CD.

We found some betches in a line where Janice's partner in crime, Kat as lining people up. We figured it was for Honor Society, and we could have totes snuck into what we found out was the PUBLIC meet and greet, where a wristband was needed.

Kat did her job and kicked us out, but was friendly and pointed us in the direction of Janice.

And there she was.

She greeted us and told us that we could pre-order the CD there...

BUT...
Unfortunately the boys were leaving early so there would be no meet and greet that night. =*/

I still ordered it, but actually ash owed me moolah so she got it, but I was really devestated.

Sorry Jonas Brothers, but most of the reason I couldn't wait for this concert, was b/c of HS.

I tried to be happy, bc I didn't wanna anyone to feel bad.
And the only way to do that, was go back and get ready for the rest of the show.

The Wonder Girls were on as we went back singing and doing their official dance to their like one and only hit at the moment... "Nobody".

It's fierce: youtube it.

Anyways... they were done in no time, and we still had to wait 45 minutes for JB [No Jordin Sparks that night.... ...~shame =P].

So we waited and then yelled at what could maybe possibly have been the box they bring Joseph Jonas out in.... yeah we yelled at a box.

So then the band came out and I got to high five them all, caress Garbo [naturally], and then get Jack Lawless not to miss me.
=P

We also noted a guy that I'd seen earlier and we all agreed that he had a striked quite the resemblance to Justin Timberlake.

We were kinda like "Why The Hell would Justin Timberlake be at a Jonas Brothers concert?", but then just when we thought he was just some random guy... People started to take pictures with him.
WTF?!

So Caity told Ash to go check it out, and I was asked to go with her.

And we were just gonna walk by when all of a sudden Ashley leaves me, goes right up to him [note: It wasn't Justin Timberlake, we knew at this point it wasn't] and says "Has anyone ever told you that you looked like Justin Timberlake?"

And as he started to laugh and talk to her a little bit more I recognized him to be Stevie Brock!!!

He ~GREW up. =P

Then I was just about to ask him, when a FIERCE security guard tapped me on the shoulder and told us that me and Ash couldn't stand there.

So I didn't get to but I'm SURE it was him. And I couldn't stop watchin that fool all night. =P

Before we knew it.

The Jonas Brothers were ready for their big entrance.

Rising from the middle centerpiece of the "Holy Shit" size stage.

And they were pretty fierce throughout the entire thing.

Highlights:
-Nick J still pimpin' and improvin that long over-done, yet new and improved speech during "A Little Bit Longer"
-Sharin' a giggle with Kevin during "Sweet Caroline"
-Joe Jonas changing some lyrics to something that mentioned daggers.... wtf?
-Nick not disappointing me with his little head...dance...thing...idk what during "Sweet Caroline".
-Then Nick J laughin as we imitated this.
-Garbo bein' so silly.
-When Kevin said in his Mickey Mouse voice [I love being on the floor] as he read signs, "There's a sign over here that just says 'Poop!"'
-My expensive arena soda spilling over me and Ash, making it sticky and slippery.
-Kevin making the most ridiculous faces.
-Caity flippin off Kevin when the bitch wouldn't stop moving.
-Caity gettin pissed when the screen changed Nick J's commercial for his dia-BEE-tus.
-The ~foam.
-But honestly I loved" Lovebug". With the rain havin the words to the song in it and a bunch of hearts...
Not like you can really see the hearts, but here's the pic of it:
FIERCE.

But all good things must come to and end, and they were done before we knew it.

Honor Society had already left too b/c they didn't even come out for the bows =/

So we headed out, kind of sad that the night to end, and really we just kind of wanted to get back to the hotel.

On our way out, teenies scattered and as we did, we were handed a little postcard size flyer, with a band called "WOW".
No Joke.

It's this band of american kids who are big in Japan and if they wore their blinding neon clothing in their high schools... Good chance they would have getten their asses kicked.

But we looked to them, b/c Ashley used to hang out with their illegal hottie, Jake, and she went up to him to say hello and also have the slight chance that he would remember her.

And practically before she got to him, he said whaddup, and they made small talk as she motioned for me and Caity to join her.

She was gonna get her pic with him [and me too... wait what...psh.], til a fierce manager yelled at us to go to the back of an extremely long line.

But we were pretty wiped so we left him to his unexpectedly long line of fans, and went back to find Pam. [Caity's Car for those confused to who the fuck Pam is... aka Kayla]

We waited for a while to get out, but we were right down the street so it didn't take too long to get back to the hotel and up to our room.

... And then back down and to the parking lot for Caity's phone.

But then once we got back up, we called families, and then shared our pictures before really kind of winding down, and I dreamt about being trapped in various places that only I could get out of...
In a maze...
It was wierd and I kept running into my friends that I haven't seen in years.
...
Anywaysssssssssss....

The next morning. I was apparently awake when our alarm went off, but that happened in between that alarm going off and then me actually getting up, and hour or so later.... was sleep.

We all got up late, but really I had to be the last one being greeted by Caity saying that I was ~finally up....
Whoopsie.

So I got up and pretty much went passed the make up and the curling iron, to pack up and get goin.

So we pretty much took our bags out to the car and took our continental breakfast with us on the road.

I had "shotgun" this time apparently which was both a blessing and a curse.

Good b/c shotgun effing rules, and I can finally understand Caity when she talked...
Bad b/c well no make up and curling iron and the ability to fall asleep easily looks really good in the windows you through.


Luckily Al kept me awake with the texting, and it was just long enough for me call HS' SayNow a couple of times, and apparently be oblivious.

Caity informed me at one point that she had to pee....

So she pulled off an exit near Cleveland, and as I pondered why she had to pass every single place that she could have pee'd in, she landed on a mall and asked me if I wanted to see Honr Society.

"Uhhhh... duh." *no pun intended*

Then Ash asked me where were were...

"Uhhh South... Park Mall?"

And then b/c I'm extremely slow, about "2 hours" went by before they told me that Honor Society had tweeted that they were going to be performing an acoustic set at THAT very mall in about... 5 seconds ago!!!

So I flipped out [I have witnesses]... and I had to hurry the limited amount of makeup I could put on and we headed into the mall... The butterflies in my stomach going crazy, b/c I couldn't believe that they did this for me.

I really didn't want them to feel bad that I missed them b/c TRUST me it would NOT have been the last time to see them... NO. FUCKING. WAY. But I couldn't believe I was actually going to see Honor Society =D

We found where they were gonna be, and started heading down a long hallway to the center, and saw some familiar guys coming from the opposite direction.

Mike, Jason & Andrew from HS just kind of looked, and we waved but they didn't wave back.

"Fine don't wave... That's cool". [-Me]

As soon as I said that Michael, pointed at me, smiled and waved. =D
So silly.

Then they just still kinda waved and said hi as we went out seperate ways.

We were pretty close to the stage, but didn't really feel like being "all up in their grills" once they did come out and perform.

Not like we had to fight to see them either b/c due to the lack of fans who were waiting at the House Of Blues for the "Full Moon Crazy" show, or the arena... there was only about 50-60 ppl there.

We watched them go in and out of an Indians sports merch store, taking pics and whatnot...

Then they finally made their way on stage and performed 3 songs:
"Over You"
"2 Rebels"
and "See U In The Dark"... and yes.... I honor rolled. =D

After they were done, they decided to not just rudely leave like they very well could have done, but they decided to hit the pause button on their busy day to talk to fans for a good solid 45 mins to an hour.

First one we got a hold of, was Michael Bruno.

A way to start the convo off right with this gentlemen was by showing him and getting him to sign a poster that I had drawn [again] for Ashley with lyrics and background to the Honor Society/Jonas Brothers song "Don't Close The Book".
So he showed it to him....

... and he told us it was amazing, asking if I was the artist of our "group", and letting me take this pic with him.
[Ewwww, I look gross in all of these just fyi.]

Anyways... we moved on to either Andrew or Jason idr....
.... it was Andrew Lee.

So he pretty much said the same thing, the greeting and the praise for my drawing... and asked if we were gonna see them at HOB after...
buuuuuuuuuuut we had to tell him where we were from, and why we made the insanely long trip and why we needed to get back. He must have been somewhat angry and he had to actually hit Ashley. Disappointment... But it was her man so she knew she liked it.

Then at that point I finally found a marker and my ticket from the night before and had him sign it
Next was Jason Rosen, and before the praise, he decided to sing the entire song. God I hope them lyrics were right =P.
He said they were and signed and also asked about the HOB.This was getting upsetting... lol.

Stupid Kelly Clarkson... And ya know... that lack of money.

Then Jason was taken over by others, and we made our way over towards...

ALEX.
NOYES.
*heavenly music*

The teenies took their time, and Caity impatiently told me "Kel get your man", as he was two inches from us. Niiiiiiiiice.

Then they left and he looked over at me, and I basically died just a little.
Ash stepped in with my drawing which he loved, no joke. And asked me how long it took to do it all.
He also asked about HOB I believe and we told him we had to get back bc we were from Syracuse, NY.
That turned into a conversation about the hefty 8 hour drive, to fall tour hopefully with Syracuse on that list, to hopefully close, before we kind of ended the convo and had make a second round with the boys for Michael's autograph, and then Caity to get her autographs as we [or at least I got hugs]...

I told Michael that I missed getting an autograph the first time around, and I asked for one.

He said "Yeah... what if I was just like no?"
Me: "That would be REAL rude"
*Michael laughs*

Then when Caity got her hug, it turned into a sweet convo on good smelling perfume. Then he wanted another hug so he could take a guess at what she was wearing. Apparently boyfriend had a nose for this kind of stuff, lol.

We talked to him for a while, and when I got my hug he said "Don't worry, I'm not trying to smell you.... It's kind of creepy...." HAHAHAHAHAAHAH

He absolutely fit right in with the sarcasticness we all share. Michael Bruno's amazing.

Then around this time we kind of had to rush b/c they were getting "pulled away", which wasn't really pulling them away when they just kept talking and wouldn't leave for a while.... lol.

But I got all my hugs, Caity got all her autographs... [Did NOT want to to let that Alex Noyes go]... And we still were asked if we were gonna come to the HOB. Only andrew remembered we had to go home... SO SAD =/

I even remember Andy the 2nd time around saying her remembered us from Bamboozle and Jason laughing when we told him actually returned Sharpies, unlike Nick J.... "Really?!"

Anywaysssss we actually left with Honor Society with Jason at our side and the other thre in front of us with security all around.

Felt madd important. Lol.

We had to split for them to go down a seperate hall, and they said Goodbye =/

I REALLY didn't want to leave, but it was time... and we made the LOOOOOOOOOONG trip back home.

We dropped Ash off Ash at an exit, and then I went to Caity's for a bit to get ready and go for Kelly Clarkson and Gavin DeGraw.

For the record, besides the idiots startin shit and dancing like mother effin idiots in front of us....

It was an AMAZING show. And my highlight was definitely when she belted out an amazing cover of Patsy Cline's "Walkin' After Midnight". Incredible.
But I'm not gonna lie...

After that, it was no secret that I was so tired out.

I got home and basically crashed.

The next day was my first day of training, and it was long, but necessary.

And I've been going ever since.

As of right now I start training on the floor tomorrow hopefully.

This weekend is also Drew Seeley and Drake Bell.

My last weekend before I go back to hell...
I mean...
...
school.

Hopefully I'll be all set and everything will go good.

I finally got my job, and I can't be happier with the set of friends that I have now.
I don't know what I did to deserve them.

For now I g2g.

But a summer blog will sum everything up hopefully soon.
If not... then it'll be back to normal.
Lol.

Peace out. and whatevs

Ok so apparently I'm a bad blogger....

Can you please forgive me.

To make up for it I posted my last unfinished one that needed pics but it never happened...

Lol.

And the rest of that day... I got picked up and brought out to see Demi Lovato & David Archuleta in Wilkes- "Bar", PA.
Al went in early for her David Archuleta VIP Package, so she got to meet him, with a very disappointing picture, and 8th row seat.

After me and Ashley got in later, we actually found Ally and discovered that there were a couple seats across from her not filled yet.

We actually stood there through the whole thing! No one ever showed up. =D

Up first was KSM.
I only knew one song, "I Want You To Want Me"... Obviously.
But they weren't bad.

David Archuleta was next and I'd rather not say anything. B/c if I say anything of course someone will get mad or if I say something good it's held against me...
...

So anyways Demi was Amazinggggg...
Lol.

She sang a whole bunch of new songs, and the favorite was definitely "Catch Me".

Other than seeing Demi, it's been Kiiiiiiinda low-key.

Parents still work,
I'm stil jobless,
and not a lot of money to work with...

Took Ashley up north to see the Fam and Billy Ray Cyrus... that's right Billy Ray Cyrus...

Who was fierce as hell! Lol.

And funny.
Said "Sweet nibblets" a few times, and then got the crowd a-goin' when he said "Miley put that cigarette out and get out here".

Also saw Ryan Cabrera again.
We [meaning me, Ally & Ashley] waited all day down on Wescott... Going in and out of Boom Babies for clothes, and the store across the way for KAZOOZLES!! [Yes I found them!!!!]

Then we were sitting outside and saw Ryan & The Kin right before they all left to go and see "Bruno". Ryan was driving a red van across the way and he told Al later "I saw you earlier". =P

We went in and had no probs gettin front row!

Ryan again, had four opening acts so it was a long wait.

I had to step out a few times due to the fact that it was about 1000 degrees in the theater and I felt like I was gonna die.

So we went in & out and traded & saved spots. And a hottie used my phone. ["Here you go dear". =P]

The Kin were actually really good. And legit!

The even stepped off the stage and sang in a small circle surrounded by us and the other betches there, to sing a beautiful song called "Abraham".

And during that [don't ask me which one, but] one of them "looked me in the eyes".

Awkwarddddd... But I'll take it. =D

When Ryan came out, he automatically recognized Al [and why not? they go way back =P]...
And he did a really good job.
During and after the show actually , Ryan had a few drinks so by the end he was a little tipsy.

When I went up to him, he got determined to find a pen, which I felt bad about b/c his twitter stated before that he hurt his leg. Then i got my pic with him.
Had to hold him up a little too.

Thennnnn Ally gave him the same necklace I have and that he marvels at everytime I see him. And he was half excited...

He signed mine too and I remember having him sign mine... And he dropped it back on my chest. So he went to pick it back up and then jerked his hand a way and I got it for him. =P

Anyways, twas fun, and then Denney's after.
["I just ordered a drink and I just remembered that I have no money"- Me
"But you just took money out"-Ashley
"Oh yeahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh"- Me]

[ya had to be there]

The next day me and Ash hung out with Caity for a bit and then Ally later. We were actually supposed to see Honor Bright, but we decided not to and we went to the mall to see "My Sister's Keeper".

Sad sad movie... Suprisingly I didn't cry like I thought I was going to.... A few teary-eyed parts, but then nothing more.

Then the rest of the night we slept [unlike the night before, stayin up til like 4 for gits and shiggles... lol]

Then in the morn, it was "Eagle Eye" before Ash had to leave =/

The rest of this week was mostly packing and getting everything all set for the Annual... Or bi-annual... wow that looks wrong... idk what it is... but "Every-two -year" Family vacation. LMAO idk...

I got a break Wednesday with Caity & her friend... Who's name escapes me... to see HP & The 1/2 Blood Prince.

Madd good.
Not as much actuion.
"Merlin's Beard!"
*Enthusiastic* "HI!"
Tom Felton is still keepin it sexy and knows hoe to STRUT LIKE HE MEANS IT...
Daniel Radcliffe is also hilarious.

The past couple of days are still stressful b/c of the trip, but I also can't wait to leave.

Unlike this blog...

There hopefully won't be as long as a wait for the next one, and there'll be more time to actually put pictures.

So I'm just realizing it's almost time to go, so I'm gonna have to do the last minute stuff, and I'll write later.

It's been too long...

Really it has.

How've ya been?

Enough chit-chat let's talk about me =P.

So since last time...


MAY 30TH:

Me and the rest of the Twinkle Douches [Ally, Caity and Ashley if you're not familiar yet]... went to see Mitchel Musso and Drew Seeley.

Also got to to see Chris, Unique and her big baby belly =D

We also due to some confusion, got Caity and Ash in for free,... All b/c Al's brilliant mind was amoung us. Lol.

So we basically waited all day on top of a hill, while taking breaks to eat and walk around.

Then while Caity & Ash took a break, Drew Seeley came out with his guitarist. And guitar man asked what we were doing so far away. Drew told him not to tease it, but against security's wishes, a stampede went straight to the stage. And there me and Al stood.

Drew actually did amazing through soundcheck and his performance.
Mitchel Musso was great, only his voice sounded so recorded, that in fact it was and his lipsynchin ass madd fans go absolutely crazy.
And me and Al were pushed and it became too much so we left early.

We met Caity and Ash in line for the meet and greet which was already long as it is, but fans who just decided to cut the line made it even longer.

Then, we were informed that Mitchel and Drew would only be signing for about a half hour and our odds weren't looking good.

However I think Mitchel holded out as long as he could, and in the end, we were the LAST ones to meet him. =D
He was a really sweet guy and I just remember telling him that me and Al's birthday was next week.

Mitchel: Really? How old [are] you guys gonna be?"
Us: "20"
Mitchel: "Ohhhhh" [very Oh Hell Yeah tone]

Probably happy he actually has fans over 12 =P

[Wow. Forgot to take off the zoom... But I know you're STILL jealous of this pic =P]
Then we moved on to Drew, who was also a sweetheart.

He asked us where we were from, which I believe must have stuck with him b/c he's coming back here to the Fair in September!! =D
We had to re-locate Unique and Chris who were being madd stalker-ish watching us as they were on the ferris wheel. Lol.

But then we sat a minute and re-capped and chat chitted before heading towards the exit when we saw somebody very familiar...

Mitchel Musso and his band waiting to go on "The Slingshot".

I dunno if he was going on or just his band, but he actually ended up changing his mind after the power went out, and it began to rain!

It was crazy.

We actually followed Mitchel out and then after giving Unique her gift, we made the journey back home.
JUNE 5TH:

Just so happened to be my birthday, and I had decided to have a Birthday "Shindig" at my Aunt/Cousin's house.

Kinda took over.

Played many fierce games of Badminton...

I think maybe 5/6 all together and lost only one game. Eye of the mother effin' tiger... BAM!

It was a lot of fun though.

So badminton, pizza, and then my AMAZING birthday cake!!...

Lol.

But then the gifts were just crazy enough to work, making the night special.

many cards...
a FIERCE Honor Society bag that Ash made...
Handpainted drawing from Kayla....
money [always good]...
Burger King Gift card...
Mitchel Musso's brand new CD...
lucky charms lip gloss in honor of K2...
And a lot more.

And I have learned to over look Caity trying to kill me with Peanut Butter lip gloss, and Tracy's d-bag of a bf giving me chocolate covered almonds... Haha.

Ended the night with an intense game of Taboo before calling it a night and we were out.

So much fun though, I love my friends =D.

Then I guess despite the HUGE fight me and Al had [yes again] and our family having a garage sale... I can skip to...


JUNE 19TH [Well 18th really], 2009:

Thursday June 18th, me, Caity and Ash decided to leave at about 9pm to drive all the way to nyc [in just about 4 hours mind you... lol] so that we could meet the Jonas Brothers.

They were supposed to be on the Today Show and we were initially going to that, but we figured that meeting them would be more worth it... So we actually waited at the Trump World International Hotel all night...
We got there [apparently just after Chad Michael Murray passed by across the street... or at least we think?] and waited with a few fans, young and older as we waited for any news of them to show up.



We actually heard about 2am til they apparently went through the back at about 3am, this guy came out to tell us they were gonna get ready and be out to meet with fans in a couple hours before they had to go to Today!!

So everyone waited though the painful two hours...

and the 45 minutes after that....

And then caught a glimpse of Big Rob escorting 3 boys to the door.
As soon as they came out, Kevin went right to our side and the other boys started at the other end.

Kevin signed my CD and asked everyone if they like the CD [of course]... before I asked to get a pic with him.

I thought this would be my chance to FINALLY get a picture with these boys... But unfortunately, my stupid photo skills weren't up to snuff, and forgetting the cam was on zoom... I basically got a great show of his eyebrow...
Niiiiice. [Such an idiot.]

Then Joe came up... at least I think... Next and I asked him twice for a picture...

The first time, he said yes and then signed Ash's CD...

The second time he said yes again, but some stupid bitch jumped next to him and let her camera go.

So at that point there was NO WAY I could get up to him, which really sucked b/c if there was one Jonas Brother I could get my pic with, it would've been him.

Next was Nick.

I actually had drawn this special thing originally meant for my art collection, BUT I decided to give it to the boys. I wanted to hand it to Nick though bc it was for the song "Fly With Me". A song that mentioned characters from a favorite movie of his, Peter Pan & Wendy.
So he came up and when he saw it all rolled up, he said "Sign this for you?" and he bagan to write "N..." before I was like "No no it's FOR you".

His face literally went =O as he was like "Ohhhhh it's FOR me, well thank you very much."

That's when I asked for a picture with him and he said "Yeah sure".
And I did it. MY FIRST PICTURE WITH A JONAS BROTHER!!

After years of wanting to see them live, fnally getting to, and then again and again and again... being denied to take a picture with them when I was fortunate to finally meet them... I finally got a picture with Nick Jonas.

Mission accomplished.
And of course it would be Nick....

He was the first Jonas I hugged, and got a candid picture with...

And now my first fan pic. =D

Nick Jonas... Bless you. Lol.

Anywayyyys... After they left we all realized that kind of woke us up from our daze from waiting so long, and we decided to not only move up closer, but to wait til they came back so we can try again. [And try and get a pic with Joe =P]

I was all set for the plan, but unfortuantely it didn't happen.

Caity asked if I would be mad if we left. I kind of let out a "psh..." before going silent and then idk-ing it. I really wanted to try to get my pics with them... They both didn't understand how badly I wanted those pictures. And how long I've waited...

But I also didn't wanna be the one "Wehhhhhh I wanna stay! Hmph!" So we left.

And of course I was pissed. I didn't really talk and cried under my sunglasses.

And we didn't even leave right away.

But we decided to actually go through Central park to look for "The Pond". [You don't understand unless you know us, lol.]
Then we walked arund for a bit before finally re-locating the car and driving out of the city.

Always sad leaving NYC. *sigh*

But we did, and that was that =(.

The rest of this past weekend, not so fun.

Til Monday that is =P

JUNE 22ND 2009:

I got up and pretty, kind of early-ish, at least for me by about 11?

I don't really remember, but I just remember Al telling me I was gonna be picked up earlier than we thought and I rushed my ass all around trying to get ready as quick as possible before we were on the road.

Good times too with Jill and Brenda leadin' the way... lol.

Then, after we located the
...
