Oh, are we gonna make it?

yep, it's a huge problem. And that sounds like a good idea. Here at MSU, they just take your exam and you fail the class. if the prof is nice, he/she will only fail you that quiz/exam. But you still go on probation. Papers being plagerized is an automatic failure of the class. In one of my classes, the prof makes all ppl wearing baseball caps, turn them backwards, just in case.

You're welcome! Isn't such a beautiful love song? I can't stop listening to it. www.myspace.com/coloursarebrighter This one is for a children's charity. Snow Patrol sings " I Am an Astronaut" :nice: oh and all these SP goodies are being relayed through the SP forum! So thanks to them! Tlo, I know what you mean! I misssss them toooo. :cry:

So glad you had fun time! only 5 more months until FEB!:P

www.myspace.com/thecakesale there is a song called "Some Surprise" with Gary Lightbody and Lisa Hannigan (you will recognize her voice, because she does vocals with Damien Rice) It's the sweetest song. And the compilation is for Oxfam. :D

Bittersweet. But I thought that was taken a few days before, not minutes! ah well. It just shows how friendly and genuine he was.

He was! If I wasn't spazzing out, I could have been at such ease. I was like "here please use my hands so that you can sign ( my Cd booklet and ticket stub)" I had them opened palm. Tom's like "Sure! haha" I had to refrain from cracking a joke about " Hands Open". :P

me and Ally and her loverboy. :lol: Yes, but I had difficulties with the camera, so I'm editing and resizing them right now

We did!!! First off had to go alone because this was a rescheduled show from June and the friends that were expected to go had classes. Traffic sucked, so I got there at 5:30ish. Luckily not more than 25 ppl were in line already, and then they split up into guys and girls for security. About 10 mins before they let us in, an alternate entrance door opened and out walked the guys. Not many ppl noticed I mumbled " hey ohhh guys!" and pulled my camera out of my purse. Then as they kept walking I yelled " HEY WHERE ARE YOU GOING!???" and no one turned around but I think it was their manager who motioned back to me with his hands: to get something to eat. Wooo I was sooo in shock. the doors opened and I was 2nd from the rail. and had a great view through 2 tall guys shoulders. Augustana was the opener. I really enjoyed their set! The lead singer was extra scruffy and thin but his voice was really raw and played well off the harmonica and music. Snow Patrol was absolutely stunning. wow. I still can't get over how much fun I had dancing wildly and singing along. Counting down the days until FEB! Open your Eyes had to be my favorite song and Tiny Little Fractures closed it out. I missed Hands Open, maybe next time. So after the show let out I went straight to the back entrance, which is where my car was parked anyway. The tour busses were like 15 ft from my car. so I was either going to sit in my car until they came out or just stand outside. but there were a few already waiting so I joined in. Wehn they finally came out there was at least 50 ppl waiting. I think they were impressed! I had my ticket stub, Final Straw CD booklet, and camera ready! Gary, Tom and Jonny came out first and I scurried over. I think Tom and Jonny were drinking some Coronas! I was in awe. Such gentlemen! never had I met anyone famous, so that old saying of " keeping cool and calm" went out the window. I was babbbling and turning red. oh god what an embarassment. But I didnt' want to be rude and hold them up so I hope I wasnt like crazy or anything. Next was Paul, gosh he is so sweet. he has a delicat face and soft voice. Some girls who were following them on tour were asking him about some scarf they had made for him a while back. They said he didnt remember it but he did and even described it, AWW! And because of that she would bring him cookies to the Chicago show the next night. lol But then it was a waiting game for Nathan. But it was worth it! I finally met up with Ally and we talked and she was clearly in love with Nathan. haha It was great he had a drink and she asked well what is it? and it was just some vodka and lemonade. mmm he set the cup down while he was signing stuff and we like guarded it from anyone spilling it. The funniest thing ever was how they made us move away from the building becuase they had to move the bus, so there was no light in the middle of the parking lot, and he couldn't see very well. So I jumped into action and remembered that I had a huge flashlight in my car so I grabbed that and was the spotlight girl for a while. omg I am such a spazzz. We chatted about the upcoming Us tour. and Ally confessed her physical attraction tohim by declaring, " I just have to get this out, you are so much hotter in person!! " WHAT A RIOT! So then we approached Gary again for more pics and chatting. I said I hoped he liked Michigan and I wish that they would have played all night! LAME I KNOW! and then as I left Me:"Hey Gary, Good Night! aaaaaand.......sleep tight!" pics from before and after the show coming up. the others need editing still.

:stunned: LMAO!! I don't think I ever could have imagined that! I totally take your word for it. hahaha you are too creative. :laugh3:

good to see you got home safely! :) Bye!

:laugh3::laugh3::laugh3::D:D:D:D Hey Ally, glad you are happy happy happy with the pics. I def wanted to give you the honor of posting them. Cause it's like your dream come true!

Love for the silly guys. This will be my first WAS show. please hype it up for me. I love hype for things I love. :)

It was beyond belief. Yeesh I am TIRED. but high as the highest kite. I can;t wait to see them again. and again. I got to meet Ally ( such a sweetie) when I finally realized it was her, we were both flustered and babbling from meeting the band. Pics and full story laterr. Sneaky peek:

Very cool. And wow you've been here ages.
