After today, i don't think i'll ever think anything is impossible anymore.
Today, one of my dreams came true and my 12-year-old self is still in awe. Heck, my 21-year-old self is amazed.
Today, I interviewed Simple Plan. The band i've liked for 9 years of my life, the band that can make me cry with their songs, the band that helped me get through tough times back in high school, the band that has such a big place in my heart i'm surprised i always seem to forget that. they're the band that has stuck to me since the first time i heard them, despite my growth, my shifting interests and tastes. they're probably the band that i will never get sick of <3 and i got to interview them. wow. just...wow.
when i found out it was going to happen, i don't think i really believed it. and then a few days later, it was today. it was the day. and i was stressed as hell. i don't think i've ever been as anxious about an interview and i've done quite a few intimidating ones. after a very unproductive day at work, i went to the venue and got ready for the interview. after what were probably the longest 15 minutes of my life, i was led towards Seb who greet me with the biggest smile on his face. <3 we went to sit down and i was so nervous. my face was burning. he was adorable! he wanted to tweet about the interview but his phone corrected CONFRONT and put Conan O'Brien instead lol since we were short on time, he said he'd leave that for later and we started the interview. he was so easy to talk to. probably one of my most enjoyable interviews to date. :)) our 10 minutes ended way too soon and as he finished the drawing that represented him, we parted ways and i was so happy yet a little sad it had ended so soon.
i went back out to wait with my friends, got my VIP Media pass (that i had found out mere hours before that i had gotten) and made a girl happy by giving her the extra ticket i had. :) when we were led in, i went up to the VIP balcony area :) we had an amazing view. and the show was just fantastic. i don't think i can ever get tired of seeing them live. they have such energy, and the sound so great live. when they played this song saved my life i almost cried. it took a lot for me to hold it in haha that's the effect simple plan have on me. <3
i love them so much. on top of making music i can relate to, helping me through tough times back then and just so much more...they've proven to me that dreams can come true.
I wanna start letting you know thisBecause of you my life has a purpose
You helped me be who I am today
I see myself in every word you say
Sometimes it feels like nobody gets me
Trapped in a world where everyone hates me
There's so much that I'm going through
I wouldn't be here if it wasn't for you
I was broken,I was choking,I was lost
This song saved my life
I was bleeding, Stopped believing, Could have died
This song saved my life
I was down, I was drowning
But it came on just in time
This song saved my life
Sometimes I feel like you've known me forever
You always know how to make me feel better
Because of you my dad and me
Are so much closer than we used to be
You're my escape when I'm stuck in this small town
I turn you up whenever I feel down
You let me know like no one else
That it's ok to myself
I was broken
I was choking
You'll never know
What it means to me
That I'm not alone
That I'll never have to be
