I enjoy Scarlet Grey, Lemon Squares and long walks on the beach. I also fight forest fires and teach orphans to read in my spare time.

At the moment (because it’s very hard to love just one) it has to be from Business Colors.

Hold on…It can change, you can love…There’s still someone to figure out. So stop wonderin’…Would I, would I, would I…take back anything?

Why do I love this so much? Well, it’s true. For me it’s saying to stop living in the past and stop living in regrets. The future is better to think and dream about.

MEMPHIS!!!
After the show was over I walked to the merch place thing hah. Again There was Cole. STANDING BY HIMSELF. 
Me: “Is that Cole?”
Tiffany: “I don’t know who that is”
Me: “HEYYYYY”
Cole: “HOW ARE YOU?! IT’S BEEN AWHILE!”*HUG*
Then we chatted for a minute then I saw Alix and I attacked him with signing Fancy Blood. Then this annoying guy was standing there yapping to Ben and I was like UGHHHH. Then Ben saw me and “HOW ARE YOU?!” *HUG* 

Then I bought a shirt. I got Cole to sign to it. Ben walks up “WHAT IS HE DRAWING NOW?!” Ben signed the shirt and he was like “I tried the whole signature thing… but as you can see it didn’t work out” (well it was something along the lines of that) I just laughed. Tiffany and I talked to them for awhile then these really weird guys took them away to do an interview. 

We waited for alittle bit then we went outside because I have this Social Anxiety Disorder and I was just about to get sick. OH AND GUESS WHAT WE HAD TO RUN IN TO PETE AND KEETH. Had to suck it up and talk to them. Keeth pulled me into take a picture with people I didn’t know. I was like okay then. Then he signed my CD cover and turn on the back of it and pointed at his name 
Keeth:”What does this say?”
Me: “Keith Cooper…”
Keith: “And what does this say?”
Me:”o.O Keith Cooper”
Keith: “And you know what that means?”
Me:”uhhh..”
Keith” I’M THE SHIT!!”

Haha then we walked to AFI’s tour bus hung with Adam and said WTF WHERES SCARLET GREY?!.
They were lost thats where.

And So I was telling them about how scary it was in Memphis. They offered to take me and Tiff back to our hotel! So nice of them! But I don’t know why I didn’t let them. BUT I didn’t die and it wasn’t that bad so yeah. XD 

UMM RARARARA 

Ben pinky promised Megan that he wouldn’t kill me..
Keith stole my shirt and used Boo’s back as a writing board. and when he gave it back told me not to look at it. WELL THANKS KEITH BUT COLE IS NOT A DICK.
Ben’s mysterious scratch on his hand…

Walked them back to where the bus was. We didn’t die walking up there because Ben is kinda tough. 

“HEY DAVEY!”

Everyone kinda just stole SG away so I went and got my Crash Love CD signed by Davey and Hunter. Then after that I talked to Ben again. 

Somehow Megan and I ended up talking to Alix. Pete drew the heart on his arm
Alix: “See this is what happens when Pete gets drunk. He draws things on me! He drew a dragon on me last night. See!”

So after a bunch of shenanigans and many complications to the plot… I did get to see Scarlet Grey one day.

I got to see them in Camarillo, CA in June. First, my dad dropped us, my friend Mildred and I, off at the wrong spot I had to call my sister and ask her to Google map it. So we get there and we have no idea what to do because there are only a couple people in the back listening to a guy on his guitar. Well, that’s all swell but that’s not what I went to see. Haha. So after I read off of the back of an SUV that it didn’t start until 7 pm we decide to go grab a bite to eat and chill out in the mean time. After all of that we go inside and on a piece of paper it says “Scarlet Grey 9:35-10:05″ So I’m panicking out because my Dad was going to pick us up at 8:30 and I was REALLY looking forward to Scarlet Grey. Mildred says that even so we might as well go in and see the other bands. We buy wristbands and then sit outside the door awhile to calm down.  So we call my friend Dora and she says she can’t come because of her reasons and she can’t get in because she doesn’t have money. So I tell her I’ll pay for her. She then calls us saying she has no car. We tell her to go to my house to get Mildred’s. The car has no gas. Dora at this point doesn’t know what to do because she doesn’t have money for gas. Mildred tells her to borrow money from her mom. Her mom has no money. You see where I’m going with this? It was all lining up against me. I wasn’t going to be able to see them. Dora then says oh well, I’m going to see if it’ll make it. After a nerve racking 15 minutes of me almost hyperventilating in the parking lot at the thought of Dora being stuck on the freeway, she makes it. I’m jumping up and down in the parking lot excited as ever.

They actually didn’t start playing until around 10:00. All of the songs they played I loved and it was a spectacular thing to watch. After the set we’re in the parking lot trying to get home ASAP before we all get our heads chewed off by our parents. Then right before we get to the car Dora asks me if I wanted to go ask for a picture. She pokes and pokes but then gives up and says let’s go. Then I decide to just go for it because I’d been through a lot that day not to. Ha. We run back inside, Mildred decides to stay in the car, and Dora and I wait in the hallway. When I see Ben coming in I try to dive for the water table to hide. Laugh all you want but it’s called being shy. Thank goodness for Dora because she just flat out asked.

So I did get my picture and we talked for a couple minutes. One of the nicest people I’ve met in forever. Honestly, I thought he’d take the picture and walk off but he took the time to talk to us. It was amazing and very sweet. He gave us each a copy of Fancy Blood which I take very good care of and Dora never takes out of her boom box because she listens to it so much.

One of the single best nights I’ve had so far. Worth it that I was so stressed and spooked in a city I know nothing of. This is something I’ll tell everyone who will lend an ear and one of the best days of my summer, especially since it was my birthday a couple days before that. One of the best birthday presents ever!
