It's true, he needs good health to continue to make awesome music for us fans! Then he can go back to jumping around and putting a great show!

I missed the CAKE!!! well I brought you lollipops! Go ahead, take as many as you like.

Ohhh Osheaga! HOW I wish it would come true! There is nothing confirmed either in His website or the Osheaga website, but we can always hope! I'm thinking the date is too soon, and if it's not confirmed yet, it's not likely to happen. Looks like he wants to take a month long break! But I guess that could give you the time to prepare to visit you sick friend in Montreal. I'll be there FOR SURE too!!! You are myspace friend now! yay!!!

Do you mean to perform at Osheaga? When the time comes, you should get really sick! or maybe some friend that conveniently lives where Mika is performing got really sick and you need to go visit ASAP!

You know, in case he decides to make a make-up concert for you, we will be there to support you! (I just quoted myself. )

WHERE DID YOU HEAR THIS? I think you totallly should ask him! Just explain your situation and how you took a plane to see him perform and he didn't have the courtesy of showing up! It's the least he can do. I am sure all the other canadian MCFers will be there with you to support you! You can count on us!

mmmm. ok ok. I'm gonna go now. see you later everyone! Have fun for what it's left of Mika's Birthday.

Yes, I think so, the date on the magazine is August 25th. I don't even know how it's supposed to be on sale now. but just to be sure I would go before monday. The cover is the guy that won Loft Story with a blond girl and it says "Le coup de foudre de Mathieu."

http://www.mikafanclub.com/forums/showthread.php?t=7944 it's all there. and really, let's party! hahaha!

I remember the seagulls eating fries near my school...it always thought it wasn't too good for then, but kind of funny.

Hey Jessica! I went to work, I came back from work, I translated some very inacurate info I found in a magazine about Mika, I had cheese cake ice cream, and did some other borring things and here I am now! hahaha.

Helloooo Everyone!

This is also the second magazine (The first one was a teen magazine called Full Fille.) that I see that has inaccurate information about Mika. the other one, I just read, I couldn't keep it, but I could totally tell all the information had been taken from Wikipedia (Which at the time was wrong). Maybe I should write them and tell them all that they got wrong. even if I know they won't really care.

Yeah, I know some of them are inacurate:sneaky2: , but I translated them as they said. While I was doing it, I was thinking, "Nooo, that is not true" but left it as it was, because well, i was just translating. They should have asked any MFCer, we could have done a better job! Yeah...I didn't know that either. 50 secrets, not so secret to any MCFer...

hihihi! she said yes!! Now, she better do it fast. no no, I'm kidding I can wait. Now, you know what it's wrong? To analyze this picture for the artistic quality (the depth, composition, sharp/blurry, lightning etc) and not because Mika is in it...that is what you get when you are an art student.

Haha! You are so nice! I'm sure my aunt will get it for me, she is pretty awesome like that! I'll talk to her TONIGHT!

My birthday! October 18th. Yeah, 25$ shipping for a 7$ bracelet, it's outrageous! But I'll talk to my aunt, she lives in the us. maybe she can get it for me and i'll pay her back. No no, that was not sarcasm! I was happy you guessed.

Yes! like that! Car-oh-Lee-nah...

No, that is INSANE in a bad way... I do think it's very expensive, for a 7$ bracelet....

Hahaha! noooo! I'll try to make you smile for free! I think that is the reason why I like Love Today so much, all though I don't pronounce my name like that.
