So, I have to tell youWhen I got there, I saw Justin just walking around to sound check. It was great. I nearly jumped out of the moving car. We didn't get there extremely early, but early enough. But, I got inside and started flipping out. I went up to Adam, one of the crew members, and gave him one of my little prezzies. I told him it was for him. He pointed me in the direction of Garrett, yes, the Garrett Leland of A Dream Too Late. I didn't recognise him at first cos he chopped off his hair. He has a fin now instead. Anyhow, when I handed him one of the gifts, he goes, "what's this for?" i told him it was for him and that everyone brings something for the band, but never for the crew members and they are just as important, so i wanted to give them each something. "that's just about the nicest thing i've ever heard. do you want to take it into the other dudes?" i started flipping out, cos he was going to take me into sound check. i just nodded. he told me it would be ok. he showed me to the sound board. it was good fun, cos then i saw Hawk up on the stage just jamming trying to get it together before the show. the sound guys came down, and I handed them their gifts. i told them why i brought it and they gave me this massive hug. jon and dan just looked over and were confused for a minute. Garrett took me back out to the line. when they finally released us inside, i was about to flip. then i saw jon, and no one else really recognised him. i went up to him and told him that i understood he didn't really like being recognised and that's cool and all, but i wanted to give him something. so i gave him the gift and the wristband i made. it was hilarious. i tripped up and gave him justin's on accident. he said, "i'm glad that you at least know how to spell justin's name." i was really embarrassed, but i eventually found his and he gave me a hug. "here, i want you to meet my friends." i felt so honoured. he was special for a minute. then, the preshow started. after i think twenty minutes, i was flipping out and jason singled me out. "that girl's excited". i pointed him to the quiznos in my hand and he just looked confused. i went up to the stage all bouncy. that was hilarious. i told him what i had. he was like, "are you serious? you really brought this for me?" he was pretty speechless. "wow." and i went back to my seat to grab dan's stuff. "it feels like crhistmas." he gave me the mic to tell everyone why i brought him a vitamin water. he bent down and whispered in my ear, "i'll open your gift later. thank you." the show was ahmasing. i got pushed out of the front row for a minute. then i went and stood on my seat the entire show. dan was wearing my wristband the entire night. it was great. after the show, i got in line. i felt like peeing my pants, i was so nervous. i knew i was going to tell them my story, but i didn't know how they would react or how to tell them. i finally got up there and was wigging out. hi jason."hey! the quiznos was good."hey, the last time i was here, i was screaming in your face, 'you just don't understand...you just don't understand.' and i have to tell you why you don't understand."ok, go for it."about two years ago, i was having a really bad year. nto as bad as this year, but it was bad enough that i wanted to commit suicide.he gave me this look. "but why?"well, anyway, it just sucked. i had it all planned out and everything. and then soemthing told me to check my email. i found a link to your video take me. i dropped everything and rededicated my life to God."awww. that's so awesome!"i got a high five from both Justin and Jas. it was really cool. i then got down to jon and dan. -jon "hey, i have your wristband in my pocket still..."dan "you mean this wristband?" he was beaming and gave me a high five. "i haven't taken it off. this thing is cool."we all laughed. it was fun. i told them the story. they both got this look on their faces when i was telling them the suicide part, but after i told them everything, dan was like, "which vid?" i told him the opening line and he knew it right away. i got high fives all around. it was rad. and i got a hug. i gave Justin his gift and he looked confused at first and was very grateful. then i went over to capital lights. i told them i was no good with names, but i had gifts. jonny knew who i was right away. "i know you. you're the girl from myspace." they were all really excited when i gave them their gifts. "we got a fan! that's cool." they asked me to stick around after everyone left so that we could chat. it was rad.i went over to the rkr line and matt was such a dork. "there's nothing in this, right? you aren't trying to kill us?" i just laughed really hard. and then he was like, "i'm going to eat this right in front of you. if anything happens to us, we'll come after you." i was still chuckling. he ate it and was like, "this is really good. ok, i believe you." it was fun.and then i went back to the capital lights area and we chatted it up. told them how i heard about them. and brett was like, "you want some free stuff?" it was rad. all in all, we were having a good time. i laughed real hard and had a few cries and wanted to just stay a bit longer but i told them that i had to go. they told me that i could and should stay longer so i could talk with them...but i couldn't. i had a long ride back home.it was the best night of my life =]]]
