thank you to these 4 guys for coming back
i feel great. i'm ready to finally grow up. move on and give up a lot of the things i've held onto for the sole purpose that i've held on for so long. i don't need to.
i don't need to impress anyone. i'm 20 years old, quickly approaching 21. the petty, "i've seen that band more than you, i knew them before you, blah di friggen blah" crap can be left for the 15 and 16 year old kids who think its cool to be a dick scenester.
brand new makes me feel amazing. i am my absolute happiest and feel on top of the world when they are on stage in front of me. nothing does that to me. its hours of feeling butterflies in my stomach and loving it. they've always given me the chills and been one of the best performers i've seen, but something about this recent tour hit me harder than they ever have. it's completely an unexplainable feeling. it's like trying to explain love.
jesse remembers me. i can't believe that. i will never get over that. something that took me so many years to gain the courage to do and it stuck with him. the only reason why i told him was so i could thank him, not so we could become bff or anything. (i mean, i wouldn't complain if we did but lets be serious, i didnt expect anything at all out of telling him.) i just wanted to thank him because its something that helped me, and i dont know what i would have done without that song, and he not only remembered my thanks but my story and my face. i didn't even say anything and he approached me to give me a hug and say it was nice to see me again on thursday. even if he didnt give two shits about seeing me again and was just saying that to be nice the fact of the matter is he remembered. hes just a normal person. hes more genuine than most people i know. even band members that i've met 10 times before don't remember me, or aren't as kind as he has been. it makes me admire them even more, if it's even possible for me to admire those guys anymore.
brandnew come back tour has been un real. i don't want to have to resume normal life and go back to work tomorrow. i like brandnew life better. but its okay. i gotta keep on working so i can afford to see them multiple times the next tour that comes around.
i'll be giving up things in the upcoming months.
between paying rent and wanting to see brandnew every day of my life, i can't afford to spend feverishly!
