you break my heart, rolle! that's what the banners and siggy advertisements were for :bigcry: :P

 

and i guess debs is the oracle, according to the new radio interview :lol:. looks like i was a moron :P

 

I knooow, i just kept postponing doing it..thinking i'd have enough time to do it later..apparently that method didn't work out that well :uhoh:

 

i'm such a fangirl, but MAJOR SQUEE.

 

i made my facebook status "SQUEE" and one of my friends asked why i was squeeing and i was like ":uhoh:" and made up an excuse :lol:. i don't know if i want my real-life friends knowing just how fangirly i am :P

 

so. excited. :bomb:

 

has lore seen yet?!

 

:lol: I saw Chelsea. I was going to comment and then when I saw you had evaded the question I decided not to. Hehe.

 

Hahaha, i saw that too! and i was like "huh, i thought she'd be excited because of the post cards...ah well.."

 

:lol:

Hey, maybe if they were delivered yesterday and Chris has these interviews every other minute for the next few days, he might mention the project in one of them!

 

*dismisses the thought before getting hopes up*

^ i was thinking that when listening to the interview today: CHRIS HAD SEEN THE POSTCARDS BEFORE THIS WAS RECORDED! but i wonder if debs told him not to say anything on air to make the surprise better :thinking:

 

haha, and the facebook squee is for the postcards :P. i'm just not advertising that fact :lol:

 

i really hope that this is announced before next tuesday :P. wednesday and thursday i'm out all day and can't check my computer. tuesday would be ideal :wideeyed:

:o....:lol:!!!

 

ahhhhhhhh so happy right now knowing that Coldplay has a postcard I sent them! I hope they make a small video or take pictures showing some of the cards...then maybe I'd know if mine made it across the ocean :P But I'm so excited anyway to hear the news that I'm just going to assume it reached the boys :)

 

Genius idea!! GENIUS! Sounds like they're feeling the love from all us out there. Cheers to Debs!!! :D:D:D

it's weird to think that they've seen all our drawings and read all of our notes in our own handwriting...:freak:. i can't really believe they've read my letter and have seen semy's logo hundreds of times over by now. it's just all so cool :wacky:

 

[/fangirl]

This calls for a party :laugh3:

I wonder who's postcard might get displayed in some way or discussed??? :wacko:

now....

 

GIRLS COME BACK HERE I'M SO LATE AND I WANT TO CELEBRATE :lol:

hiii lore :wacko:

 

ready to party? :dance:

 

I wonder who's postcard might get displayed in some way or discussed??? :wacko:

 

ohhh god, kara :bomb:.

 

i bet if they were going to show them, they'd show a sample, and i figure they'd show the most awesome ones, meaning ones like pris's and thalia's :D

 

ok, i said i wouldn't say this in the thread because i thought it might get peoples' hopes up UNREALISTICALLY high, but keep in mind that this was JUST A DREAM. but two nights ago i actually had a dream about the project. i was watching the grammys (well, an awards show--i assume it was the grammys) and coldplay was performing, i think lovers in japan. and instead of having a video or something on the bigscreen in back of them, they were showing a slideshow of our postcards while they played on live TV :wacky:

 

*THAT WAS JUST A DREAM, PEOPLE. IN NO WAY DO I EXPECT THE SURPRISE TO BE ANYTHING THAT HUGE.*

  • Author

that would be so awesome!!

 

I'm so so happy!!! I remember the night when all of this started.. and loook at us now!! the guys received the postcards and they know there are lots of people that appreciates their work

 

 

I love you all!! I'm really proud of us!

 

:bomb:

That would be absolutely positively FREAKING AWESOME. I know it's only a dream but anything's possible right? :P

i can't believe we pulled all this off, with huge amounts of help from debs :bigcry:. that first night, i figured we were all onto something because everyone was so into it and the poll numbers were huge, but i almost never fully expected it to reach this point. it's not that i expected it to fail, but i just didn't expect it to be this huge, either, nowhere near it. i'm really curious as to how many cards were sent in.

 

i also find it hilarious that i was so involved :lol:. if i recall correctly, all i did was offer to draft a letter to get the ideas flowing, and everyone was like "that's great, just send that" :laugh4:. i think i got so involved because people kept saying i was more or less right on with the things i was writing, so i just kept going, and i'm also a huge geek and like to organize things and write instructions :P. also, i had a LOT of uni work to do at the time, and i always tend to get most into coldplaying when i have uni work to do :P.

 

anyway, it's just weird to have the whole thing almost OVER. i can't believe we pulled it off! all that's left now is the surprise :bomb:

Haha, those first few nights were crazy, I think I almost pulled a couple of all-nighters... Especially that first night! :P

 

I still remember when we were trying to decide if we should leave a giant package on the Bakery doorstep, and wondering if the Bakery had a mail slot :lol:

Coldplaying members are awesome, we can work together even if we live like a million miles away :lol:

 

 

:bigcry: I'm so happy

Its strange to think about for me too. I remember reading something about this when it was jussst getting started... I always find these kinds of things too late, so I remember being so excited to find that I hadn't missed out on this. And I can't think of a better project to be a part of. This band just means so much to me :nice: And everybody here made the world seem so small and wonderful. This is exactly what the world should be like all the time :P

I agree!! It feels like it's been so long since the conception of this idea.. It's been such a journey :lol: it's really amazing to think about

*changes mood in celebration*

 

I'm happy too Lore! I also remember how every night it would always end up being you, me and Chelsea on the board anxiously worrying about weird little details and talking about The Beatles :lol:

 

Oh man, this plus the Chris interviews/sessions makes this the best Coldplay-day in a while! (even though I've only heard one interview and one acoustic session so far, I know the rest will be awesome too!)

hahaha yeahhh I remember it, specially during my exam weeks, I spent way too much time talking with you girls about this :lol: I'm so happy it worked! I can't believe it.. coldplay have great people around them, Debs helped us SO much!!

 

and it's funny, since all of this started in a random thread as a random idea which I never though it could become real!!

 

 

still can't believe it...

 

:dance:

Three cheers for everyone who made this happen- and a special fourth cheer for Debs! :P
