Here at LAX now - so hard to leave Southern California. It's beautiful and amazing. and I think Andrew is going to seriously engage the California boss men in conversations about a transfer to San Diego. I love Calgary, and I love Canada - but it ain't got nothin' on SoCal.

 

:surfing:

 

Makes it a bit easier to know I'll be seeing Mika again soon. If my heart can handle it!

 

And now, a quote fest:

 

SOOO many people came before us and SOOO many people will come after us, but I wouldn't change being here right now for anything. I'm sure other charistmatic, talented guys will exist in the future, but that doesn't matter to us now, does it? We have Mika. Thank God.

 

Precisely. Most of the time, he's thousands of miles away, like some sort of amazing comet that shoots by briefly and then disappears into the night sky - but at least he's here, now. On planet Earth. Making music, performing. For us. And for that I am passionately thankful.

 

And...was Mika still wearing the bracelets??? I think they were underneath the big silver bracelet, but I couldn't tell.

 

Oh yes, they were there - after their appearance at the Grammys the night before. :punk:

 

So, Mika was amazing and everything, but these are the people that made my weekend.

 

:tears: I MISS you guys already! Who thought sitting on pavement could be so freakin' entertaining.

 

Sure! I'll write up some names and repost!

 

In the meantime, for your amusement, our complete and total humiliation.:naughty:

 

 

Bwahaha we're famous! I love the craziness. Le sigh.

 

Ohhhhh, I recognize Lollipop_Monkey because of the dress she showed us she was going to wear (I really feel like a stalker now). And so, that must be Standard Toaster, huh?

 

Love the reports and pics. Keep them coming please. What an emotional morning, I've cried and laughed and now I feel rather faint. Will I last until Thursday? :blink:

 

Yay, I have an MFC stalker! :punk: I'm glad I picked something memorable to wear, lol.

 

Can't wait until you lose your Mika virginity, lilmot - two more sleeps!

 

I love the fact that people all over the world can genuinely share in the joy that is Mika, and experience genuine emotion reading these reports from all around the world. He's a treasure, and the fact that the MFC gives us the ability to share that with others when he can't be with them is truly a blessing. I still haven't fully come down from last night, and I went to sleep at 4:22am, and the alarm clock went off at 5:45 - forgive me if this is all a bit south of coherent.

OMG....didn't I just mention I was feeling faint? :stretcher: Very bad for my health to think about these things.

But I am very excited about meeting you in Vancouver (if I last that long!) :naughty: and ps.... the dress looks lovely.

School? What kind of a careless school would schedule for classes to go an usual the day after a Mika gig? It should practically be a national holiday :naughty:

 

:bleh: Have fun at school and then report back immediately!

Thanks for that!!!!

 

Liked your make-up (had to go back a page to see who blinked!!!!)

Thanks!

thanks for pics/names, you look so happy and (obviously) totally mad!

 

i could see MFC badges and MIKA rosettes, but no flashing hearts...is it just an european trend?

 

it's amazing how mika fans are similar all over the world....nice!

 

the girl with findingmywords is not a MFCer but she seems so into the madness...cannot she join here? as all the rest 'with no name'???

 

lovely lovely ppl...

The flashing hearts didn't make an appearance until it got dark, but trust me, they were there.:thumb_yello:

The girl's name is Beatrice, and we spent all day informing her of all the reasons she should join the MFC; hopefully we will see her soon.

Brilliant! You guys must've had such a fantastic time!

Sivan's dress is :shocked::wub2:

LOL! That is great! You all sound ... lovely

Thanks! The face paint thing was on a whim; Vanessa (findingmywords) just opened one of the jars and started painting her face, and we all joined in. It got a little itchy, but it was worth it when Mika complimented us.:wub2:

 

Lovely is a nice way to put it.....

Ok, more pics! Due to the slowness of photobucket and the seven-image limit, I can only do a few at a time, but there are quite a bit. Sorry about the graininess of some of the photos.

 

I also have my vid of Love Today uploading, but it's been almost an hour...stupid youtube.

Around 11:30pm, Alison escorted us to a private room to wait for Mika. In this room, there were 2 couches, water and sodas set up for us and oh, yes...a restroom. YAY!!

 

I actually thought that we were going to be meeting him cattle-call style so I was so shocked when we found out that it was a private meeting. Andy came in the room about 10 minutes earlier and was just having fun with us. He interviewed Kathleen and I took a pic of him interviewing her and he said with a huge smile, "Hey, behave!". I said, "No! I'm only taken your pic because you always have that annoying camera on me. Crap, then he turns the camera on me. LMAO!! His smile is to die for. I think I have an ANDY crush. Yep, it happened. :wub2:

 

So, Andy then interviewed Kathleen's adorable nephews and they were so nervous! OMG...so fun to watch them shake.

 

Then, I could hear Mika walking our way! I looked at Kathleen and said, "Here he comes." He walked right in behind me and I could feel the breeze as he walked around me to get to Kathleen. He gave her a big hug and then turned to me and said, "Awe, Salt Lake City" and gave me the biggest hug. Awe, he smelled so good and his hug was so tight. Andy, then said, "She was in Glasgow too." and Mika said, "I know...but Salt Lake was recent." You know, I don't think I've still ever told them my name. I'm such a dork. :doh: Although in Glasgow Mika said my name...so, I'm not sure. LOL

 

So, Kathleen and Mika got in a lengthy conversation. Since it wasn't mine, I won't repeat it here. Sorry, however, Mika did look at me and say, "Well, how did Salt Lake City compare with tonight?" I said, "There's no comparison. Tonight, we got the big, theatrical production and Friday night, we got the all natural, lets sit down and play a gig. Salt Lake was so intimate and fun that I don't know if anything could compare. He smiled and said, "Yes...that was fun. So, did you like that more than the Big show?" I said, No, "It was different..one that I'm glad I got to witness because you'll probably never do it again." He then said, "Well, Glasgow was different too...huh?" I said, "Yeah, it was..didn't have half the stuff that you did tonight. Wow, I've been to three totally different shows.....sure couldn't accuse you of not putting on a different show!" He then said, "Ugh, you went to the ony shows where there weren't Big Girls and now, I can't make my point." I said, "What's your point?" Andy was filming the whole thing and then, I said, "Hey, when did this turn into an interview. Shouldn't I be the one asking questions?" :naughty:

 

Then.....PEREZ walks in and interrupts our flow just when Mika was going to tell me his point. But, that's okay...Mika told him and us that he was going to be on the Tonight Show this week and to watch for it." Perez hugged Mika and on his way out, he pointed at me and sang, "Doo da da dee da dee doo."

 

Then, Mika was handed about 15 CDs to sign and Mika said, "Can you help me? Make an assembly line and take out the covers and hand to me?" We obliged and he quickly signed them all. While he sat on the couch, he talked to us some more and then, Yasmine came to get him. They spoke in French/English but, I could tell that he needed to get going.

 

Since it was just us in the room, I felt like it was okay to be taking pictures. If anyone else had been in there, I wouldn't have. He was so cute and on with everything. On his way out, He did a "Swoosh" with his hands like in that black and white video of his and says, with a giggle and smile, "Stop with the pics." I giggled and said, "Great, I stopped taking pictures when you started doing something cute." He gave me that great laugh of us and hugged me bye. Then, that was it.

 

There was more...I'm sure but I can't think of it all right now. As I remember, I'll add.

 

So, on our way out, I saw John and he stopped me and took my hand and said, "Nice to see you again." I said, "Nice to see you too." He really is a very NICE person. And, when he smiles, he just looks like a Teddy Bear.

Great Photos! :wub2:

But whats he got on his (Right i think it is) Hand?:blink:

 

ok... are my eyes playing tricks on me or is he wearing some kind of protective thing on his right hand? (same hand as bracelets) ?

did i miss something?

 

He was wearing a wrap-around bandage on his right hand during the show, but he took it off before coming out to greet everyone afterwards, so I doubt it was anything too serious.:thumb_yello:

awww thank you all for the beautiful reports aaaand pics!!

And how lucky are you to have that wonderful spring weather?!?

 

While he sat on the couch, he talked to us some more and then, Yasmine came to get him. They spoke in French/English but, I could tell that he needed to get going.

 

I was always wondering with what language they speak with eachother..... Does French/English mean that some words are Freanch and the other half English?

Maybe a little tendonitis, wasn't the right hand the hand drop the mic with a couple of times?

More guy has had a few littles boo-boos.

 

LOVING THE SILVER BRACLETS!!! Man with silver :wub2:
