HEY! Welcome to my blog. This is my first time to write in a blog, so I still kinda suck. I wanted to occupy myself with something different this summer and I stumbled here. :)

now playing: Just Dance - Lady GaGa

Graduation. *sigh* I felt nauseated when I got to school. I didn't want to leave 6th grade just yet. I'll miss my section so much. It was over before I knew it. I was thinking about too many things that I can't even remember. I cried after the program, and I couldn't help not to because its the end of the school year. And the next time we'll go to school, we won't be having the same classes in the same classroom again. Ever. After that I looked for my friend who promised me he'd be there... and never showed up. It was disappointing because he was one of my best friends and I wanted him to see my get up that stage and get my diploma. :( In the end, I guess I am happy that I finished my elementary course and now moving on to High School.
The Concert. It's Secondhand Serenade performing live at the Ayala Malls. I went to Greenbelt and got there early enough to eat dinner first. It is free, but if you want to meet him you have to buy a stub or buy his CD to enter the closed area near the stage. It didn't bother me much to just watch from the 2nd floor so I won't have to pay for anything; but after the show, they announced an autograph signing and I thought "I gotta get in" and yeah, I got to meet him.
During the concert: Well, I didn't know all of his songs. I only know, like, what, 3 or 4 out of 10? I'm not a huge fan of his singing but I totally love his lyrics. I was shocked when he told us that the audience watching would be part of his new video, "Awake" but not sure if that's gonna be real.
After the concert: (the meet-and-greet, autograph-signing part)

John: Hey, how are you? Did you enjoy the show?
Me: Yeah, I'm fine.:) (I couldn't speak very well cause I was caught up in the moment like, OMG I'M MEETING JOHN VESELY :D)
Me: *hands my album to be signed*
John: *hands me my album*
Me: Hey, umm, can you sign this for me? *hands my poster to be signed*
John: Yeah, sure, I'll sign that for ya. You want me to sign it here?
Me: *flips the poster* no, umm.. here. :)
Guard: Ma'am, next time po bawal 'yan kasi po unfair sa iba
Me: *not listening at all*
John: Here you go. :D
Me: Thanks... *staring at him*... *screams* OMG I LOVE YOU SO MUCH!!!
John: *laughs* thanks. :)
Guard: *pulling me off the stage and telling me to hurry up*
Me: Bye.. :(

That's my first ever concert, and the first time I met someone famous worldwide (I've already met some bands from the Philippines and Chris Tiu).
My description: Waaaaaay hotter and cuter in person. He's also taller than I expected. and very nice. :)
We left there about 9:30pm, almost 10pm (we arrived 6pm, started 7pm).

I wish I could see him again.
If you don't know him yet, check his myspace and listen to his songs. :) Secondhand Serenade
