sometimes when i sit and think. and really think about how lucky i get at times. i cannot even begin to think of where to start explaining how im feeling about it. after last night meeting the veronicas. ive realized how fortunate ive been to be able to meet so many of my idols. yes i have a bunch, but theyve inspired me in so many different ways.
david archuleta;
i dont think you realize how much he has helped me over the past year. i know it seems so cliche to say this. but everytime i was feeling sad and angry about what happened. i knew that at any moment i could look a picture, listen to his songs, watch a video of him just being david and i would smile. he would make me happy constantly. watching him start off on american idol from the auditions to him now touring with demi lovato. i cannot even believe to begin to explain how it feels to of met him. its unbelievable. looking at the picture of us with him. its incredible.
hedley;
oh boys. you are the main reason i got hooked on concerts. well sort of. you had a big part of it anyways. i remember being like 13 years old and watching jake step out on canadian idol. and i would sit on the phone for the full two hours you were allowed and vote continously for him. he was my idol. i remember how much of a big deal he was to me. and then getting into hedley. and then watching it emerge to Hedley, saying goodbye to the old guys and saying hello to the new guys. and now 43 hedley concerts later, and looking back on everything ive been able to do with them and the friends i made. its unreal. i owe so much to them.
jesse mccartney;
meeting jesse. was something ill never forget. one of my many idols growing up. since the good ole dream street days. the reason i still i have that bit of fan girl in me. i owe it all to jesse. sitting on my bedroom floor for hours cutting out every big or tiny picture of him and plastoring it on my wall in a huge wall collage. or hanging the shirt i wore when i hugged him for 2 years. i have it safely in a box now. i cant throw that out. so meeting jesse was so amazing. now hes kind of turned into a douche. and i cried over it too. it really hurt watching him walk by 10 girls asking for pictures, when a few years ago he sat and signed autographs for hours. hes faded from idol status, but ill never forget it.
the veronicas;
oh hey girls that have been an inspiration for me to sing. 12 years old. rocking in my room to them since they first became famous. my friend and i were both one of the veronicas. we'd sing along for hours. and put on shows. i never stopped loving them. its insane for me to think that i met them. a band all the way from australia. the girls i have wanted to meet for so long and it happened. if i could trade places with anyone in the music buisiness for looks wise, talent wise and wardrobe. it would be lisa and jess.
simple plan;
the reason i started the crazy idea to wait hours in line in the cold to meet someone. i dont know how the simple phase all started. i think it was a group of guys at school. i just remember i was hooked. a big package for you became my favourite movie. your songs became my favourite songs. you were my first real 'rockstars' that i met. i remember waiting 4 hours in the cold to meet you. i was more excited then you could imagine. it was a huge deal for me. i mean 13 years old, meeting your favourite band. now watching them its insane how different they were. there still amazing tho.
faber drive;
faber faber faber. oh boy. the first band i ever saw in general admission at a concert. you actually scared me i remember. and meeting you i was so nervous. and then seeing you again and again and again. 3 times. and then i was remembered by you. now the count of how many times ive seen you. is insane. i cannot begin to describe the expierences ive had with them. it would take me too long. but i still look up to all of you in so many ways. that includes you redbull, hinsley, calvin, zubin. but im looking forward to meeting jp. i already know andrew. hahah. but seriously. faber drive. love them.
these are just the IDOLS ive met. next on my list of things to do is write about who ive met. that could take me a long time though. i cannot believe ive met all these people. im probably forgetting someone. but i mean sometimes its just too hard to believe.
the rest of my idols i still need to meet;
taylor swift
hilary duff
mary kate and ashley
miley cyrus
taylor momsen
blink 182
those are just the idols. that mean something more to me then just oh i love their band.
