greetings from the south!

so i haven't posted a blog in FOREVER!
and even though nobody reads this,
i'll humor myself with an update.[=

almost two months ago i had an adventure in Orlando...
DISNEY CHANNEL GAMES!
met lotsa famous and not-so-famous peeps,
saw quite a few things that shouldn't be seen,
and oh yeah had a blast with my best friends!

let's see if i can remember how this all went down;

flew in on tuesday, met steph at the airport.
she had missed her first flight, so we were running a bit late.
took the MagicalExpress to our hotel then hit up the SportsComplex.
we got there around 12-3ish? (can't remember exactly)
our friend Sam was holding us two seats right by the dugouts where all the stars came in and out of.
we met a good amount of people that day, including those three boys i'm always rambling on about in this silly blog.
the crowd went NUTS whenever any of the jonas family was even visible...
so needless to say, we didn't actually get to talk to them.
come to think of it, we didn't get to talk to them at all during the entire trip.
but we saw them, and they saw us. and that's all that matters, right?
....right?!?

yeah, Demi Lovato is gorgeous. so is Chelsea Staub.
Jennifer Stone, Selena Gomez, Meaghan Martin, Alyson Stoner, David Henrie, Kyle Massey, Moises Aries, Cody Linley, Jason Dolley, Jason Earles...
the list goes on... and on... and on.
the Cheetah Girls were so mean. EWW.
all of the international stars were so fun!
we saw most of them that night back at the hotel.
Sam, Steph, and I ate dinner at a restraunt in the hotel called Jiko.
it was like, African food i guess?
everything on the menu was so expensive that we just ordered one appitizer and one meal and split it between the three of us.
which wasn't hard because it was actually REALLY big.
we ordered the most American sounding dish we could find,
and it was still completely not what we expected, but still sooooooo good,
how many times, do you think i can use a comma, in this sentence?
anywhoo, (COMMA?!) at the restruant, our table was back in this private-type room.
it was so cool because we could see the entire restraunt from our table...
and the table next to us had some... interesting people![[=
after dinner we went back to our room and slept.

the next day we went to one of the parks to see the parade.
well, to see the cool kids in the pre-parade. hahah
but we got there a few hours early.
so sam, steph, linds, kori, and i all just goofed around until 4.
then we found a good spot and waited for the stinkin floats to come by.
somehow we ended up moving to the very end of the parade,
Demi waved at me and said thanks for coming,
and i said see you tomorrow, and she got really excited and said "YEAHH! TOMORROW!!"
she pretty much made my entire week right there. lol
Nick, Joe, Kevin, Selena, and those cheetah whores were all waving and smiling.
but Demi was the best in my opinion!
i forget what we did that night...

the next day we went to the games.
it was the last day filming the games, so the crowd had tripled from tuesday.
Joey Page and Jess from Put Me In The Picture Promotions were there,
said hi and got a few pictures with them.
then they had to run to the airport to catch a flight to Joey's show in Cali.
since the crowd was so insane, we just walked around and then sat down in the bleachers on the far right...no left? uhm.... KEVIN'S SIDE of the field.
there was NOONE sitting over there, so we were all just being loud and obnoxious.
then we saw Demi and her bodyguard walking across the field toward the lunch tent thing.
there were a few shouts to her from the crowd, but nobody really paid attention to her.
so Nikki got the bright idea to yell "I LOVE YOUR HAIR!" from like 50-75 yards away.
demi looked at the random cluster of girls in the middle of the empty bleachers and started stroking her hair, laughing.
and out of nowhere, i yelled "I SAW YOU IN THE PARADE YESTERDAY!!!!!!!"
and the 20-30 girls at the very bottom of the stands looked up at me like WTF?!
but Demi seemed to know exactly what i was talking about.
her head snapped up and she had the hugest smile on her face.
she pointed at us and waved, it was so funny!

i wish i could have actually gotten to talk to her though.
hmm, hopefully at a jonas show! =D

there was a bit of drama after that, but we got it sorted out.
and thankfully, we all got back to having a good old time by the end of the night.
Heather and Erika arrived and we all went back to the hotel to swim before crashing.
Kyle and Dylan. oh man, those boys.
and that's all i'm going to say about that...

next day consisted of meeting up with Ashleigh to complete our crew.
then we went to the Rainforest Cafe for dinner, oh what an event that turned out to be.
us being us, we sent a glass of water to this guy sitting a few tables down from us.
our waitress found it hilarious and gave him a message from us.
(well, from Erika. becuase she had crimped her hair that night)
"Hey Cutie! from the shawtey with the crimpz."
at first he didn't get it, so we were kind of bummed.
then like five minutes later, he came over and sat down next to me.
"that. was. great." he laughed as he put his tan, muscular arm around me.
turns out, his name is Jeremiah and he was there on his Senior trip.
we found him on facebook, but never added him.
i don't think....i'll have to check that. ha!
after dinner we went back to the hotel (aka the pool)
and swam with the stars, stayed up until 4-5am ish? chatting it up by the pool.
Friday night wouldn't have been the same without Ozgur.
and of course the "oh sorry....i'm on Disney Channel!" kid and his twin-friends...

Saturday. the day of the concert.
woke up, got ready, went to the Sport Complex for the last time.
saw some people we liked, and some we could have done without.
Steph got front row on the field (watch for her in the videos!)
Heather and Erika had field too, but then hung out by the VIP section.
Sam and I sat up in the very top, very back on Nick's side,
but i wasn't complaining, i had a blast with my samsam!!!!
and then Ashliegh floated around between us and Heeeth&Errk.

they filmed the awards and stuff.
Miley, Cheetah, and Jordan Pruitt<3 performed.
then....the girl we had all been waiting for... DEMI!!!
she performed a few songs before being joined by JB.
and i must say, she did absolutely fantastic!
for her first big crowd (a good few thousand screaming fans) she was sooooo good!!
then jonas performed WYLMITE, BurningUp, and SOS.
it was awesome! the audience was going crazy!
so afterwards, we did what was becoming natural to us.
back to the hotel to swim with our fave kids!!
there was football, the throwing back and forth of a random stick, laughing, illegal events which i will not mention here, creeping, ...making love?!
and then a bit of thievery.
but it was all in the spirit of the DCGames![;

Sunday morning, Ash&Steph drove back to VA.
Heather&Erika dropped me off at the airport and then made their way back to SC.
and I, all alone, flew back to PA.
leaving SamSam, Linds, and Kori back in FL.
oh and at the airport we saw Andrea and Andreas from Spain!
and I met Adrienne and her posse of kardashians. wahoo?
i landed at Pittburgh International Airport around IFORGET pm.
or was it am? ........

well, now i'm sitting here at heather's house in south carolina.
where i've been for the past three weeks of summer![=
and i'll be here until the Hershey show at the end of july.
i've met some life changing people here already.
most the very first day i got here!<3

okay, out for now. peace suckas!
