Thanks a million for this peeps!!! Will go watch it now

Thank you Mari x

THANK YOU, PAMETTE!!! (long time no bump into each other btw) My thoughts exactly! We all know what his one bedroom basement flat look like.. even his kitchen etc..

Thank you for links and translations!!! Gonna watch them now!

You're doing great Suzie... this is a GOOD thread!

Didn't realise Sammy's got a FC I'm in!

So many entries I'd like to quote.. but haven't got the time to reply.. Love all your stories...anyway, generally I agree with Caz's idea about touching...asking is polite, but not on all occasions you'll see him happy to oblige.. I've seen him do it out of pressure before and it's not very nice for both parties. Everything should be natural i think.. extending your hand for a handshake is fine in any case though imo. "..the famous Violet_Sky.. love it!" Don't mind a hug either, but only if it's a natural hug.

Just came in to say.. I missed it.. and noticed this!!!!! THANK YOU KARIN!!!!

:roftl: Lovely to see old threads pop up every now and then. This should be good!

Emerald!! I completely missed your post That is a great story... where did that come from.. sometimes guts come out of nowhere...

Nice story Shoni. Mika & smells.. :roftl:

Cheeky sod... that's nearly a year ago now...

LOL.. that's another story.. I'd let Rose tell it herself

I really love Sasje's story, I have my favourites.. one of which is when Cynthia managed to be backstage.. mistaken identity.. remember it? good story that.. Good to know you're better now.. that thing he did was one of the best thing ever... love that story too! Wonka, you have to tell him you're WONKA!! No buts about it! Yeah Rose, learnt that.. so for the past few meetings.. I just said what comes to mind. What happened to the clogs??? Did he give it to you two in the end? LOL!!! That's a great conversation starter...

I love that story... should have a thread about Mika's premonition..haha! Thanks for this thread.. gives me a chance to look back.. I've met & spoken to him 5 times now.. though it's not as many times as some of you had or as much as I like, it's just right for me to remember each meeting vividly. Good luck reading all these!!! First time I met him was at a meet & greet in Hong Kong in May 2007. I thought I'd know what to say when I see him, but I was speechless when I was walking up to him. It was him that came closer and said that he liked my shirt.. (my friends & hand printed a t-shirt - it says Mika Magic on it). Then I told him about the disaster we had with the T-shirt. He was taken aback cause I think I sounded like a loon when I said, "it didn't turn out as how I wanted it too.. I wanted it to say Mika is magic.. but because of the design.. we had no space for that, so instead we printed 'Mika's Magic' but when we finally printed it and I tried it on, it looked as if my boobs were your magic.." then I laugh..(goon) My chaperon from Universal saved me, she said "she is officially your biggest fan from Malaysia, she has something for you". Just when I was about to show him what we made for him, he noticed my MFC badge.. he said something like "Ah you're a member" then I paused and told him about how I got the badge.. long story about how Freddie posted it to Bristol for free & then it was posted to me in Kuala Lumpur.. he said "it's amazing..I must sign stuff for you" (at this point Jerry was confused.. seemed like he didn't know about the MFC, anyway that's a different story). I took off my sling poster container and said.. "I feel like hiro Nakamura".. he said "who's that?" (He didn't know about Heroes.. & that's when Heroes was huge!) I explained a bit and gave him the poster we made.. & asked him if he knows 'Where's Wally. He said, "Yes he loves Where's Wally..." Then I said " Well, it's a 'Where's Mika Poster.. it has tiny Mika's hidden all over it.." that's when he started staring at the poster really close like an excited little boy...and kept going "that's me.. that's me..that's me...he said thank you and offered a picture together.. eventhough.. the security said no individual pictures at the beginning Got him to sign my copy of the poster & CDs. He spelled my name wrong and I told him off..haha. I had the shock of my life when he rested his head on my head for the pic.. thank God I was standing properly, otherwise we would have both lost our balance. After we had the picture taken I realised I forgot to give him the bracelet I got him.. so I told him and he let me put it on his wrist. Then the others spoke to him and we had a group picture taken. Part of that was on video, so that helps me to remember, somewhere during our conversation I remember telling him I'm a huge fan.. I watched him on youtube every night since I discovered him.. proper fangurl like.. quite embarrassing.. OMG:boxed: How long is that entry.. 2nd meeting was in Birmingham in 2008 After the gig.. there was a m&g.. I was queuing with Cynthia and Moriina (Naomi) and a girl from Japan, when I went up to him I said, "I'm sure you don't remember me, but we've met". He said, "Where have we met?" "Hong Kong" I said. He then had this surprised look on his face. He said "You're that girl that gave me that poster! I said, " Yes".. He said, he can't believe I've come all the way ..I said "well when are you coming to Malaysia?".. he then tried to figure out closer gigs for me to go to.. I told him Cythia and Naomi had come from the US & ..pointed to the Japanese girl- "she's come from Japan!" I gave him the candles I got him.. and he was very excited.. before I could say they were scented he started smelling them already.. one fell and he picked up and smelled that too! Funny.. I passed him the T-shirt I wore in Hong Kong to sign.. reminded him about it and he started writing on it... I noticed him spell my name wrong again.. and told him off again..I didn't see what he was writing after that..so had a nice surprise when I left the venue. They told us no picture, but somehow, Mika was ready for one, so I got another photo with him. 3rd meeting - Brixton 2008 Waited after gig.. more ppl to see him there..my sister & I were waiting in line by the car he was getting on.. he walked down the line and signed stuff and spoke to ppl... but for some reason he decided to go straight to the car before he got to us...he walked straight passed us to the car, as he was entering the car.. I called out "Mika, It's Jassmin from Malaysia!" He turned and looked straight at me.. but he was already entering the car. The security man shut the car behind him.. and we couldn't see a thing cause the car windows were tinted.. in split seconds.. the car door reopens and Mika looked out and asked me his famous words.. "How are you?" I said "ok..is my poster still in your flat?" He said "yes" ..don't remember what else I said or he said but then I asked if we could have a signature for my sister.. he said I can't do pictures, sorry.. I said no.. signature, as in autograph.. he said.. yeah sure.. my sister passed him her thingie to sign and he signed it.. We said thank you.. he smiled, waved and the car leaves.. Wow.. it's interesting to have written all that.. I bet I'll dream of Mika tonight.. 4th meeting - Sadler's Wells 2009 Waited next to rose in the queue. When he got to me he was only looking at my hands and grabbbed my Songs for Sorrow EP to sign.. he was still answering Rose's question at the time ..but I had to say something quick or else he'd pass me without noticing.. so I said.."Mika, remember me? Jassmin from .. malaysia.. even before I finish my sentence I noticed the surprise look on his face.. this is on video.. so i remember it clearly.. very funny expression.. and he even made a sound like haaaaaa.. "How are you..My God, You've travelled far.." I said.. "No, no I haven't this time" He said "Thank God. How are you?" "Great... I love your new songs" I said. He replied "you do? Good.. good..that is a scary feeling" I said" They're slightly twisted, but..." "twisted.. but in a good way." I said "yeah.." He then waved.. and said.."wow.." 5th meeting - itunes Fest, Round House 2009 For some reason, that night I felt like I should stand back a little..so I was on second row from the barrier. anyway.. he walked down the aisle.. I said, "Mika it's Jassmin!" He looked at me and said " Where..." and I foolishly replied "Hong Kong, Birmingham, Brixton, Sadler's Wells.. " He was a little annoyed with the answer I think.. obviously he knows we've met before.. then he said.. "Where do you live?" Then it struck me.. what an idiot I was.. told him.. i was living there for a while, but will leave soon.." I asked if my poster is still in his flat..(only cause I have no idea what to say, disturbed by my foolish reply) He said.. like well all the gifts are now in storage somewhere, bla bla..I was so disturbed.. don't remember anything else.. My last meeting wasn't a bad one but not a good one.. hoping to speak to him again in June. Hopefully I wouldn't be so silly next time.

I love the story about the blind man.. but I can imagine how annoying it must've been... not sure how I'd handle it..

LOL!!!
