WOW, yesterday had to be the best day of my life, but before I start explaining why, let me go back one more day and start from there. Well the day of the 13th was a good day... I went to Monika's house to hang out for a bit and then go pick up Lauren from Penn Station from her trip to NYC from Boston. It was fun getting to see Lauren again since we hadn't seen each other since we left school in April. So of course we were all excited to see each other again. Lauren and I had planned to go to sleep around 7:00PM on Monday because of an early wakening we were going to have at 12:30AM the next day to get ready for our trip to Time Square. Yes we were going to Time Square that early in the morning to wait on line to get passes to get to meet The Backstreet Boys. But the thing was neither one of us could fall asleep till around 10:30PM because we were so excited about getting to meet them. We need to get there early so that we could be one of the first 500 fans to get on line and get passes to meet them and have them sign their new album "Never Gone" for us. Yes the 14th of June was the day that The Backstreet Boys came back to their fans after 5 years. So since 1:00AM till 8:30AM Lauren and I we're waiting on line with over 300 other fans waiting for the passes that would allow us to meet them and have them sign our Cd's. Then at 8:56AM after I had purchased my cd and received my pass, Lauren and I left Manhattan to head back to Monica's house and rest up from the 2 hours of sleep we were running on. But instead I called my mom at the office to tell her that I had received the cd and pass and she asked me to come back to the office so she could see it. So I went back and as soon as she saw me she said we were going to buy me new clothes so I could look presentable when I met them. So We went to Mandee's and got me a cute outfit. Then I went to Monica's house and took a nap for an hour and a half right before we left for the signing at 5:00PM which started at 6:30PM. But it was good that we left early cuz the line was long once again. Well while we were waiting on line I was telling myself to keep calm and collected cuz they were people like any other so I wouldn't over react when I saw them. So when we got into the Virgin Megastore where the signing was being held, we were placed on the bottom floor where the boys were going to be signing the albums and placed into lines. In the store they were playing the songs to the new album so we could hear what it sounded like and have something to listen to while we waited for the guys. And out of nowhere a news reporter from the WB11 came over to where Lauren and I were standing and started to talk to us and tell us that they were going to talk to us for a while and record in to be on the 10:00PM news that night. So I was on tv for once in my life for going to a Backstreet Boys album signing. I was so excited to watch the news last night. So after the reporter left us we listened to some more music and then at 7:00PM The Backstreet Boys showed up... coming down the escalator. First there was Brian, then Nick, then AJ, then Kevin, and last but not least Howie. As soon as I saw Brian on the escalator I began to scream... I could believe that I was in the same room as the bad I fell in love with 8 years ago when I first heard them on their first cd. So I watched them for a while and then got back into my spot in line to start the signings. The whole entire time I was on line i was calming myself down so I would look like a crazy fan when I got to the table they were seated at. I was surprised that I was so calm while we were walking around in line... but that all ended for a moment when I was two people away from meeting them. I felt my heart start to speed up, but then Brian turned his head my direction and smiled at me and I felt fine once again. Then Lauren was up and I knew I was next. So I handed my album cover to Brian and the signing began. I shook Brian's hand and wow it felt great I couldn't believe that I was talking to them and that I was completely calm and for once started to feel completely happy. All the pain I was feeling from my recent discovery of my ex boyfriend not wanting to even talk to me and that he didn't like me anymore after flirting with me since we broke up was gone. I was no longer INCOMPLETE!!! And the next person I got to meet was NICK CARTER!!! OMG YOU DON'T KNOW HOW LONG I HAD BEEN WAITING FOR THAT EXACT MOMENT!!! MEETING THE GUY OF MY DREAMS... IT WAS AMAZING!!! After Brian was done signing my cover he handed to me instead of Nick... so I took it and handed it to Nick. Here we go I thought as my heart stopped for a moment... the day I've been waiting for all my life thus far. I took a deep breath and and looked at him. He just looked me over and then said hi to me. I said hi I'm Jeanette and he said nice to meet you Jeanette. Then out of nowhere I hear the bodyguards behind me say to keep the line moving... but I didn't care I asked Nick if I could have a kiss. So he said yeah sure and started to lean forward and the body guarded started to say something and Nick looked at him kissed me on the cheek and I turned my head and kissed him back. He just looked at me with a surprised look on his face that immediately turned into a smile. I said bye to him as he handed me my album cover instead of giving it to AJ. Right there and then I felt my heart stop again and then I had to take a deep breath again. I could not believe that I had just received and gave a kiss to Nick Carter. I had never imagined that the day I had been waiting for... the day I would meet my hugest crush would happen. I was so happy and felt loved that nothing could change my mood. I couldn't stop smiling and all I wanted to do was stand there in his presence. So I handed AJ my cover while still looking at Nick and then turning to him. I said hi and and gave him my hand to shake and I introduced myself to him... but instead AJ grabbed my hand and held it. He looked at me and then with the corner of his eye at Nick... then at me. I was surprised that he was holding onto my hand but hey it was cool. After that I said hi to Kevin and Howie shaking hands with both of them and making small talk as Lauren asked Howie for a hug. she got one and we were off. I wanted to stay there and asked Lauren if we could stay outside and wait for them. She said no but as soon as we got outside she changed her mind. So outside we waited for the Backstreet Boys to get into their van and drive off. As they left Brian was hanging out of the van saying bye to us and Nick stuck his arm out of the window and waved. And then off they went. I was so happy that I got to meet them that I just can't stop smiling. I wish I could relive that day over and over again, or that I could have just frozen time for the moment I was with them so I could stay as happy as I was then always. I LOVE THE BACKSTREET BOYS FOREVER!!!
