Warped!!!

Look! I'm actually blogging!
and I think I'm actually going to finish this one!
:D!

Today started off with me, sleeping in. Not the best choice on my behalf.. We left late and we got there late.. probably about 11:30-50. When we got to where warped was, there was basically NO parking left at all. And I mean at all. We ended up getting a space all the way in the flats.. and you guys will have no idea what that means probably because you don't live in Cleveland, but it's semi-long walk... So we get there and by the time we make it to the gate we're already sweating and were basically soaked.. I know that sounds disgusting.. and well, it was pretty disgusting...

So first we go looking for the master schedule, which we eventually found and then we copied it and ended up just wondering for a while, finding all the stages that sort of thing. On our way though, we got stopped by this really annoying band guy dude. lol. He was horrible and he kept stamping us with this stamp of the band name... For one. He insulted Relient K. Two, he was obnoxious and telling us that we weren't gonna come back when we really were <-- that was before he was being a jerk. Three. HE INSULTED RELIENT K!!!! He said that they didn't care about us and that they were probably in their bus in the air conditioning, drinking. Wtf. Ahhh, annoying.

So anywho... off of that subject... we put on SPF 50 and we still burned.. but I burned the least so that kinda good.. but not good for Jourdan and Stacy..

So then we walked around more and we waited in line to meet FF5 :) Then we did and then yay, lol.

And I'm really sorry about this blog, because I really can't remember much of anything about today. It was extremely hot and I don't really think any of us really knew what we were doing.

So we went and saw relient k and they were all spiffy ^^ There was only one really really small mosh pit, during 'The only thing worse than Beating a dead horse is betting on one' and it was less than a minute, so I was pretty happy about that.
Once they were done we went to wait in line to meet Relient K. Matt's amazing and told me that he/the rest of the guys would make a video for my friend and told me to stop by the end of the signing and we could make one. So first we went through the line [which felt like we were standing in a pit.. very unpleasent... and not to mention we all felt like we were about to pass out from heat exhaustion... all they were selling was $5 Gatorade. No water. Messed up if you ask me.] and we talked to a couple girls infront/behind us who we were discussing relient k/matt thiessen/how people kept cutting us in line. Then it started moving about 45 minutes later and within another thirty or so.. maybe less actually, we were inside.

I said hi to Jon, cause he was there first and talked to him for a few seconds before turning over to Warne and telling him that I made him a birthday card. [Christi, I think I know the look that he gave you.. because I think that I got the same one, lol.] He looked really surprised and then he asked me if he should open it now and I said that he could if he wanted to. So he did and it looked like he really liked it. He laughed and gave me a high five and thanked me and then proceeded to show the rest of the guys. So then I talked to Matty T a little bit, the usually talk, hey, how're you doing? thing and then he commented on my shirt and asked if I made it and then said that it was pretty good. And I said that slightly out of order so by the time I was done talking to Matt my shirt was already down the line and to Hoopes and then Ethan. Ethan handed me my shirt and I thanked him and then didn't really say anything to either of them... I kind of feel bad about it, but it was too late by then and the people asked me to leave after that so I did and waited outside for Jourdan and Stacy.

Then I remembered that I forgot to mention the video and sighed at myself and then we went to get food. We walked all the way back to the front, looked at the lines and then said that we didn't have time to get food and get back to the tent in time. So we did, and we walked back to the tent. We waited for people to finish and then talked Scoot [I meant Scott.. haha, i can't type... oh boy] for a little bit. [the first time i ever got to talk to him/see him. lol] and then went inside. I explained to matt about the video, he said that he forgot about it and then asked, "Oh, for brittany?" lol, yay for brittany by the way, that actually made me really happy. But I told him that no, it was for my friend Andy that lives in the UK. And then he asked what all they should say and I said to basically just say hi and things. So they took a picture with someone real quick and then came over to us and did the video.. I started it a bit early and it was kind of loudish so you can't really hear them too well =/ but I still got it so that was good. Then we got a picture with them all and .. Oooh, did I mention Thiessen was wearing Plaid!?! Best Day Ever! :D lol
So then I asked if I could get hugs from them all and hugged Schneck.. and then.. I already told Brittany about this.. but I went to hug Warne and I kind of sort of accidently hit/tapped the side of John's face. lol. It was hilarious and I said I was so sorry and I hugged him. Then him and Thiessen joked about how I better watch out for next time I see them and to watch out for Warne cause something, haha, i can't remember what all he said exactly, but it was funny, :D. lol.. anyway, I hugged Thiessen [who seemed to be taller than usual, lol] and then Hoopes, who looked slightly scared that I was hugging him and said that it was nice to meet me and I said it back to him. Anywho, that's when we said bye to all of them and Thiessen told us to have fun the rest of the time at Warped. So I thanked him again and watched them leave and all that Jazz. Then we went to eat [cold, i might add] pretzels and sat around for a little bit.

Really the rest of the time is a blur... We didn't see too many bands and me being dyslexic, missed Say Anything becuase when I copied it down, I mixed up Jack's Mannequin and them. So we listened to them for a while [they were actually really good] and then we went to go see The Color Fred, who was pretty awesome. But then Jourdan wanted to leave right before the last song, which was complaintor, so I said okay and slightly regrettedly [if that's a even a word?] left to go see Katy Perry [we almost met her but they cut the line off about 3 people in front of us]. She was pretty good live, but the only time all the audience really responded was when she sang 'I kissed a girl'.. But overall it was okay. Anyway, by this point the three of us were basically dead and we trucked it all the way back to the car and then got lost on the way home! woo! lol
Anywho it was fun :)

Pointers of the day:
Trying to change my shirt in public.. worked the first time.. but the second time I got annoyed with it and just whipped off my shirt in the middle of a huge crowd and changed, lol. Yes, I can't believe I did that either.. but I wanted my other shirt on and the other one off so RK could sign it.. Thank God that none of them walked by when I did that.

Guy from New Zealand who kept asking us if we wanted to listen to his band's cd!!! He was cute and had an accent... and he didn't realise he kept walking up to us, lol

Man nipples everywhere!!!!!!! lol
I can't believe I just typed that... lol

Anyway, I'm gonna go now.. that's basically it, but I'm sure I forgot something
so if I did and I remember I'll post another blog and tell you ^^
