So we still had an hour or so before we had to meet the "bunnies" to walk over to the civic center, so we went back to the room and refreshed ourselves a bit. I forgot I never showed you our shirts so here they are....

I took a pic of the back too, but it was in the glare of the window so it didn't come out.

So after getting ready we head down to meet the bunnies in their room. Let's just say they described themselves in a bit of different way than they really were. So Holly and I knock on the door and this one girl answers the door and let's us in. Well the organizer of the group (the one who I've always talked to) comes out of the bathroom with a big smile on her face and starts to say hi, and all of a sudden she gets this look on her face like she is really ticked. I thought of gosh we're not THAT ugly. Anyway I tried to make small talk and asked her where her shirt was, and she said she didn't know if she was going to wear it because it made her look like a fat cow, and I nicely said "I'm sure it looks fine" and she turned around and glared and me and said "yeah, well that's because you actually look good". :confused3 I was floored, the skinny girls look at you because you're fat, and for once I was the skinnier girl in the group and the bigger girl doesn't like me. But anyway we got through that and went over the wait in line.

Our plan was to be the last group to go in so that they would leave out group at 7. Me being the only Jordan girl. I so wish someone had been videotaping this whole thing because I would love to watch the whole thing back, and see myself actually doing the things that I did. Anway, we were fine and it was only the 7 of us until at the last minute these 3 girls walked in and checked in and they put them in our group, and they were Jordan girls. So when they called our group "H" I was in front of them in line. They lead you down these stairs and I didn't realize that as soon as I stepped off the last stair that they would be right there. I immediately saw Jordan and thought OMG this man is fabulous, beautiful. Anyway, they were lined up Danny, Donnie, Jordan, Joe and John. So I walked up to Danny first and said hi and as he was hugging me he said "hey girl, how are you" I made idol chit chat I had a man to get to!!! I hugged Donnie again and I said hello again, and he kind of looked at me and said oh yeah, and something like hey how are you.

Next was Jordan.......my heart was beating so fast and I knew I wanted to do more than hug him I wanted to tell him everything that I've wanted to tell him for 20 years and now was my chance. So I walked up to him and he saw my shirt and said "Oh SNAP" and I kind of laughed and he pulled me in for a hug and said hello and I just held on, he gives good hugs too. When I pulled away he was smiling and those eyes I just got lost, and I took his face in my hands and said "I've loved you for 20 years and you are absolutely amazing" he gave me another hug and said "awwww thank you". So I moved on to Joe where my friend Holly was telling him about her tattoo, I gave him a quick hug and next was Jon. I said hey Jon and he gently gave me a hug. When I pulled back I said "My friend Shelby told me that you give the best hugs of everyone and she's right" he hung his head and said thanks. He looked really embarassed. So I knew picture time was coming so I walked back over to Jordan who was talking to the 3 girls that came in at the end, but I touched his arm to let him know that I was back and I wanted my spot and he put his arm around me, but there was just enough room for this skinny girl to get her but right in between us and he looked and her and said "hello?" than looked around her to me and said "sorry". But he took his hand off her shoulder and put it on my back and sort of patted my shoulder. I could tell he genuinely felt bad. So it was time for us to leave and I pulled my twix out of my pocket with a note and told him I had something for him and I handed it to him and he said "thank you so much" I gave him another hug and I touched the back of his head and told him that I thought he was awesome and to have a great show. We said our goodbyes and that was the end of it. I hugged all the other guys again on the way out and than it was over. We probably had about 4 minutes.

Like I said I wish someone could have taped the whole thing because I would have loved to actually see myself doing that. They guys were awesome, very down to earth. I went in to the meet and greet saying this would be the only time I would spend the money for that and I came out saying "heck yeah, I'm doing it again this summer"

I'm zonked so I'm gonna post concert pics tomorrow and I'll post our group pic from ILAA. I really hate them of me anyway, but at least it proves I was in the same room with him. The concert was awesome too by the way. We took lots of pics and I'll post some tomorrow. Here are a few to tide you over.

OMFG!!!!!!!!!!! ARE YOU KIDDING ME????????/ THAT IS AMAZING!!!

Crystal, I'm so excited just reading your story. Unreal. I'm just...speechless. LOL

Right???? I almost had heart failure. He was amazing and he just holds you forever it seemed like. I just sort of moved wherever he put me. It was pretty cool.

AHHHHHHHH, Crystal, that is awesome!!!

You're telling me it WAS friggin' awesome!!!!!

Unreal! I want to do 5* so badly... I met Joey about 8 years ago at a Record Town and I have a picture of the two of us. I stood in line for 2 hours solo with little teeny boppers in front of and behind me (had no clue who he really was, just the guy that sang "Stay the Same"). It was incredible. To have the opportunity to hug him, talk to him, and possibly get my mitts on Jordan...OMG! I'll have to start saving now because DH will go nuts if he realizes how much that costs!

Crystal....I'm so happy for you! Do you think they'll be making a trip back to NE this summer? Did you come down to Boston in September?

If you've never done 5* you have to. If you have done it, do it again.

I wasn't in Boston in September but I was in Providence in November. I'm sure they'll be up here during the summer tour. I know if they are I am so there with 5* bells on!!!!!
 
Oh Crystal your story gave me goosebumps! Jordan's face in your hands? :worship:

Those were the first words out of my mouth this morning when I opened my eyes "do you realize that last night I had his face in my hands". It was pretty amazing.
 

Now that I have actually said all of that and it is in print I feel like one of those crazy fans, but when I got in there it just spilled out. I promise girls I really and still a "classy" fan I just had to do it. I couldn't control myself.

We drove down to Providence too! I thought the show was better...well, I had better seats so that may be why!

Oh no, not crazy at all! You kept all of your "unmentionables" where they're supposed to be! :rotfl: Totally classy! I'm amazed you were coherent enough to do all that. I'm impressed! I know I'll be a bumbling mess.
 
LOVE it!!! So glad you were able to have so much fun. Isn't it so strange to get to actually see/touch them after SOOOOO many years!??!?! When I was a kid, it was all I ever wanted!

I loved your shirt and you looked FABULOUS in the pics!!! Sorry that girl wedged herself in during the photo time. Some people have NO manners at all. But at least you got some good hugs!!

Thanks for telling Jon what I said about him. :hug: That made my day.
 
Crystal, that's such a wonderful story! I'm so happy for you! Thanks for sharing, and I can't wait to see the rest of your pics! Now I wish I was doing 5* next Sunday....oh well, there's always this summer.
 
Hey, Dana... are you out there? you are in Pittsburgh, right? Just saw this on the other boards...

From Mikey from 96.1 KISS Twitter:

Dear piitsburgh new kids on the block fans...shhhhhh....listen to me and bob Monday morning

WOOOO!

Hope it is your concert announcement! The summer dates are starting to leak!!!
 
Ok, you guys are going to laugh at me! Someone just posted on the other boards that Jordan wrote back to their message that they sent him on myspace. So I figured, what's the worst that can happen....and I sent him a message! Just said how great they were last night and how we can't wait to see them on Tuesday. Hopefully meet them. Who knows...maybe he reads it, maybe he doesn't. Worth a shot!

Ha ha! I tried that today too! That was my theory! But I don't really know how to use twitter so I have no idea if I did it right!
 
Good morning, ladies!!! TGIF!!! It has beeen a long week and I am so ready for the weekend. Not much going on here this weekend, anyone have fun plans?!!
 
Crystal, what an awesome story!! I need to do a 5* but I don't think I could keep my cool in front of those boys. Especially Joey! I'm so glad you got to meet them and you said everything you wanted to say to Jordan. :)

Were they wearing Maine jerseys? They wore Boston Red Sox jerseys at the show I was at for the end.

They did. I'm wondering what they are going to wear in Manchester on Tuesday.
 
Crystal AMAZING story & pictures. I got on here last night but was on my blackberry(still trying to figure it all out) so I really could not see the pictures. But I am so excited you got to see Donnie in the streets. That is great!

As for twittering--- I have not replied to a Donnie Twitter as of yet. (I am not sure if any of you have it going to your phoneor not)BUT Donnie NEVER sleeps- that is NO Joke. So last night I lay down about 10:30 (always take cell to bedroom(that is where it charges).

10:50 Twitter from Donnie (just after the show - telling us how great it was- no big deal)
10:52 Another twitter from Donnie (My thoughts are is he going to do this all night?- so I turn the phone to vibrate)
4:41 Donnie Twitter (turn phone to silent)
4:43 Donnie Twitter again
6:00 I get up shower etc getting kids up for school guess what..
6:25 Donnie Twitter again

He really needs to take a nap. I am tired for him at this point. He has so many "projects" he is going to burn himself out.

Note to self: going to bed put texts on silent.
