Shut Up and Dance With Me

HE COVERED IT AGAIINNN!! I wish I could upload the video from the blogger app but it hates me. 

I stood in the rain for two and a half hours, battled some older ladies in a golf cart wheel chair thing, dealt with two girls who got angry at me in Spanish, and then found Danielle. Together we stood in the freezing cold rain for another hour and half and then Hunter came on and he was wonderful and it was so much fun and this is a really badly written sentence. I'm so tired.

I Don't Want Good and I Don't Want Good Enough

Today has been another long day and I am so excited to go to bed in a few minutes. Any way, work was exciting but dragged on since I don't feel very well. I have another day of work tomorrow and then FOUR DAYS OF NO WORK AND HUNTER HAYES ON SATURDAY! 

Also! Looking for apartments is hard. Nothing seems to exist that has what we are looking for, is in an okay location, and isn't going to be far from everythiinnngggggg. 

Right or Wrong, We'll Write Our Own Storyline

The second day of class has been completed, Ilysa and I heard back from another potential group site, my hair cooperated this morning, and Peter gave me a card for absolutely no reason other than he wanted to ^_^

I also won a free smal plate as part of Carabbas 1 million meals giveaway. Is this a sign that I should play the powerball? I'll think about it some more tomorrow while I'm at work. What is interesting about today is that there has been lots that's gone well. I know that sounds odd to find that interesting but it's true. Things don't usually go well all day and they have and I am grateful for that.  Now I just need to get back to the goals I wrote in my planner and survive practicum on Thursday. We got this

Now, I should probably explain why I chose today's song lyrics. I'm a firm believer in choice and you get what give. Today reminds me of that in some ways. For instance, I gave a homeless man a cookie and he was thankful; I'm thankful for today being a good day. The lyrics don't fit 110% but I feel like Mr. Hayes' words remind us that no matter what choice we make, it is making the choice that counts. I choose to have the rest of the week be a good one. 

CHE Number Three

Coming to you live from the Greyhound bus station,  this is fangirl Kaitlin heading to Jacksonville for her third Hunter Hayes concert and Coffee House Experience. Today started at 5:30 am after maybe four hours of sleep because my bus leaves at 7:45 so I had to be here early, luckily the cab driver let us go through McDonald's or I would be dead. I will be checking I with updates... Probably tomorrow because wifi and data are expensive.

After a few stops along the way to Jacksonville, I finally arrived around 12:30. I makes over of my hotel which wasn't that impressive from the outside but the inside kind of made me feel like the kid in Home Alone 2 when he checks in to the really fancy hotel. Of course I wasn't in Jacksonville for the hotel, I was there for Hayes. I finished getting ready and called my cab around 2:00. But this is where the first hiccup happened. The cab driver dropped me off about a mile too far south of my venue so I had to run to meet up with Jessica and her family before her first meet and  greet. Luckily I was able to say hi but it was freezing and humid and windy and foggy. Gross. That all changed at 3:00pm when we were escorted in to the CHE room.

It changed which was expected. But I got to sit in the front row! And meet some other Hayniacs! Nearly and hour later Hunter finally joined the party. He was different this time because he felt under the weather. I didn't ask a question because I didn't have one but being in the front we got to see his face light up at all the creative questions and see how much he talks with his hands. It was really fun none the less.

Fast forward four hours through standing in line for the pit and finally getting to the front of the pit only to sacrifice the spot for the side and regretting it later. The first hour was kind of miserable a because of all the people and this girl in a turquoise dress who would not stop leaping over people to get to the cat walk. Finally I decided to just integrate in to the middle and run between catwalks and then it started to get fun. I invited Jessica to join me and the rest of the night was awesome! Can't wait to see him again! 

Change of Plans

Not big plans obviously. Just that my schedule at work was changed to close today so I write this in the morning instead. So far today I haven't done much except for straiten my hair. BUT! The change of plans I am talking about in in reference to the concert tomorrow! I originally had decided that I would just hang out all night in the Greyhound station but that's dumb. So, I went back to Expedia and decided to do one of the 40% off unlisted hotel booking things. By some grace of god, I got the hotel that I needed!

Now I just have to get through my shift at work and then pack. THEN HUNTER HAYES!!!

I Was Productive

Today was kind of like a day off because I didn't have to be at work until 5:30 so I emailed more apartments and researched some others. I think I have it narrowed down to two other complexes so now I just have to hear back from one before I can make a decision.  After acting like a secretary for a few hours I joined my sister on her life adventures and got to drive for a little while. This missing my framed glasses thing is not okay and I meant to clean the other half of my room but emails were more important.

Work went fine, we managed to get nearly everything done which was good. My castmember and I had to save our sanity for a moment and fangirl over Hunter Hayes coming to the strawberry festival which means we get to see him! WOOO!! MARCH NEEDS TO GET HERE!! I also decided to switch one of my classes for spring to an online class so that I don't have to juggle get back and forth as often.

Searching For Solutions

I thought I had my apartment problem solved but I was wrong. They had another armed robbery and that just doesn't seem like something I should overlook. Back to the search! Although I think I have an option already. I don't get my own bathroom or a walk in closet and its much further away but it seems to be safer and I still have bus access. I'm going to run down my list one more time tomorrow and then I'll make a final decision. 

The rest of my day off has been planning my Hunter Hayes adventure, watching movies/shows, and emailing a TON of people. 

All In Threes

New blanket! New hair! New nail polish (kinda)!

Today was filled with new and exciting things so now I just get sit back an enjoy them right? Well kinda. I also started my first of three 9-2:30pm shifts so after I finish this I am going straight to bed. Getting up at 7:30 is a new experience for me okay?

The first new thing that I got today was a hair cut. My hair was to this point where it was fluffy everywhere and I needed that to stop. Did the new lady I found do it right? Mostly. I haven't left a salon 100% happy with my hair since the first time it was cut this way. She did a decent job but I keep wanting it shorter and no one seems to be able to understand that. OH WELL. We'll try again next time.

I also found out today that the Hunter Hayes tickets went on presale for non AMEX card holders but Coffee House experience was already sold out. The next VIP option is 145 dollars for a floor seat and early admission. Or I could pay 60 for floor and fight. The struggle is so real. The day was saved though by my Hunter Hayes blanket showing up!

To finish the day I pained my nails a color called Emerald City from Julep's Wizard of Oz collection. It looks like a creamy mint color in the bottle but on its like teal green.

Late For Work

If there is one thing I absolutely dislike it is being late for things. Except for school. To be fair, it was never instilled in me as a child to want to be on time or to want to attend school. Learning was easy for me and my mother didn't particularly like being awake at 7 am so I was usually late.

BUT ANYTHING ELSE and I dislike being late for it. As soon as I even think that I am going to be late I hear Kingdom Hearts battle music and I start to panic. I couldn't begin to explain why, that is just what happens. And it is what happened to day when I ended up being 20 minutes late to work :(

Things I was also late to include knowing it was my brother in law's birthday and knowing the tickets for Hunter's Jacksonville tour date went on presale today.

Of Some Importance

Let me just start by saying I do not consider my self to be a conservationist or an environmentalist. I do not identify with what my sister (who grew up in the 80's) calls a "granola" or a "crunchie," but there are some things that I think should be taken in to account by all humans. Will they? Of course not but I can do my best and that is all I can do.

For one thing, if you're going to waste water then waste it wisely. Even water parks waste water wisely by recycling it and putting it through a filtration process. Don't leave the faucet running when you're brushing your teeth or washing your face. You're one of those people who thinks everyone cares when your car is dirty and want to wash your car? Collect the water from your shower or from a days worth of washing your hands and use that! You could also use this for flushing your toilet. That how I had to flush mine for years because our toilet was broken, trust me it works.  If you must, ONLY water your lawn on your designated day and only if it needs it to keep living. I don't understand this country's obsession with lush green lawns if you don't use them for activities.

I bring this whole up because of the Ice Bucket Challenge. Yes I participated but I participated as wisely as possible. I also chose a cause I actually care about and that I am involved with instead of just being pressured into donating to a cause I know nothing about. I have a few grievances about this challenge as a whole but one of the big ones was the water that was being wasted. If 50 million dollars worth of donations has come in since who ever "started" (ripped the challenge off of Matt Lauer) the damn thing, imagine how many millions of gallons of water have been wasted by people who just fill it up from the sink and stand on their patio. If you're going to dump a bucket of water on your head, why not have it be water that you're going to use during your shower? Just wet yourself first using that bucket and then take your warm shower right after. You don't even have to go outside for that one Or water from your pool that you pour on your head whilst standing IN YOUR POOL? Add some ice and its cold. Woo. Or go to the beach, a lake, a river. Empty the cups of water that you fill up before you go to bed because you think you'll drink them in the middle of the night. AT LEAST stand in a section of your yard where the water that is inevitably going to hit the ground hits a part of the ground that BENEFITS from the water.

There are really simple ways of helping extend the water supply AND IT SAVES YOU MONEY. I bet if water droplets were shaped like dollar signs there would be an excess of drinking water.

In non rant news, HUNTER HAYES HAS A FALL TOUR AND A DATE IN JACKSONVILLE AND I'M GOING COME HELL OR HIGH WATER

Day Number One

Day 1 is complete! July has 31 days so I decided to start the an challenge today so that I finish on the 31st. The first three days are really easy but it will be the second set of three where I start to have problems because of the plank. The ten second plank today was already a little challenging and I am not really sure why. I can bench 80 pounds (sooooo impressive right?) and I can curl 50 but when it comes to push ups/planks my arms turn to complete jello. I don't anticipate having any other issues until the 5th set of days.

Another challenge was started today as well! A really cool fan account for Hunter Hayes made this project for fans(or anyone really, you don't have to be a die hard Hunter fan to want to feel better about yourself) to use the next 30 days to write their own storyline. The first day is "how you see yourself." This blog has had many a post about my feelings and how I see myself but I guess today I shall re-live some of them. How I see my self fluctuates. One day I feel like a superstar and like I am capable of anything and then other days I feel ridiculously inadequate. This is normal. the people you surround yourself with do have an impact on how you feel about your self but fortunately for me and envy one else the final decisions is up to us. Do you let yourself feel belittled and weak or do you tell you sparsely that you are strong and capable? That is your choice. I tend to pick the latter.

Aside from restarting ab challenge and starting the storyline challenge, today has consisted of lots of Facebook and Twitter. I also returned some items at Walmart and babysat for a little bit but that isn't of any real importance. I was supposed to see some of my sisters today but due to some scheduling errors those plans did not happen. Plans are being made with other people for the rest of the week though. 

Figured It Out

Well, maybe.

I did some math and I found out that even if I put away half of my paycheck from now until December, I still won't have the number I want in the savings account. Next option? Add more money. How? Well, I could start selling my stuff or offering to babysit around the neighborhood. Or I can pick up another job. Of course, I won't actually apply until I talk to my current one but I did find a handful just walking out of work today. I'd still be at the mall so it would be pretty easy to do both. Decisions are hard. 

Another thing I think I have all figured out is a way to work on the photography challenge that I have given myself and the "doing things that make me happy" goal I made. I have SO MUCH MAKE UP and I like to do my makeup so for July I think I am going to try to do at least one makeup post a week. That would only end up being 4 posts for the month (minimum) and if I can handle that then we will go from there.

That's not all folks, absolutely not! I also want to start doing the really stupid hashtags on Twitter and Instagram. I try to do throwback Thursday whenever I remember it but I want to make a point of this for no other reason than I want to. It's something I want to do for the sake of doing.

ALSO LOOK AT BABY HAYES!!!! LOOK AT HIM!

I Love Sleep

Really. It's fabulous. Starting this morning at 12:35am through today at 3:pm I was able to have a very nice visit with it. Now, I wasn't totally faithful to sleep.I originally did wake up at 10:30 because I was supposed to go have Suzy Tuesday with Catherine but upon waking up everything was a little off. I don't drink so I don't actually know what a hangover feels like but I imagine that what I felt like this morning comes pretty close. Dizziness, body aches, and a migraine were just wonderful friends to have over for a morning visit -__-

So I called Catherine and told her I couldn't come out to play today which made me sad. We were supposed to go do our nails so that her's were all pretty for her brother's wedding this weekend. Things happen though. Such is life. I know she will have a great time at the wedding and next week so when I see her in two Tuesdays. ALL THE STORIES.

Anyways, back to sleep. After I tried to feel better for like... 50 minutes I decided it was time to go back to visiting my good old friend sleep. Sleep must have appreciated this because I was granted with this really awesome dream where Hunter Hayes (DON'T ANY OF YOU JUDGE ME) and I were roommates and really good friends and hung out and went to school together and he would come kill bugs for me at 3 in the morning. It was awesome. And it was essentially my brain replacing my friend/roommate Brett Tyler with Hunter. Sorry Brett! Did I ever thank you for killing that bug?

The body aches did eventually go away around 4 which meant I had no excuse not to travel downstairs and watch last night's episode of Teen Wolf (I hate Malia.) and then work on uploading the video for work. It turned out really cute in my opinion. I hope we win!!

IT'S CONCERT DAY

AHHHHHH ITS HERE!!! I GET TO SEE HUNTER IN 5 HOURS!!!

I will be road tripping with Amanda to get to Estero, Florida and then we're Hayesing it up for 7 hours. Pictures will follow later. I can't handle my life. 

Amanda and I arrived at Germain Arena around 2:30pm which meant that I had time to put on makeup and change into my concert outfit.  Afterwards, I stood in line for 45 minutes and made friends with two mother/daughter pairs. I know one of the girls' names was Miranda but the other one I can't remember for the life of me which makes me sad. I will have to find her on Instagram.

Anyway, the meet and greet finally came and it was fantastic. Hunter walked in as calm and nice as ever, sang a few notes of "Hey Soul Sister" by Train for a few girls who were playing Heads Up, and then he gave a quick run down of why they were starting late. Apparently they arrived to the venue late by their standards so set up, sound check, and Hunter's other meet and greets were starting later than  scheduled. When he finished his apology/explaination/thanking everyone for their help and patience he kind of laughed at himself, gave a brief expanation of how Coffee House works (you ask questions, he answers, and then you get one small thing signed and a picture with him) and then he kind of stood there waiting for someone to ask a question.

Im normally really, really shy and I like to wait for the group but I decided in that moment to raise my hand and start Q and A session. He appreciated this and actually thanked me/encouraged a round of applause from the rest of the people for me deciding to go first. Then he asked me my name and if we had ever met before which I told him we had. Essentially this is what happened:

Him: "Oh sweet, where?"

Me: "In Savannah"

Him: "Savannah. Savannah..."

Random person: "Georgia! The Crazy Tour!"

Him: "OH!! Awesome! You were on the Crazy tour! When? Before or after the show?"

Me: "Actually it was in one of these!"

Him (with this amazingly goofy smile on his face as he raised his arms and gestured around the room): "We've upgraded right?"

Me: "Yeah, this is awesome. Very Swanky"

The entire CHE applauded/ complimented the use of the word swanky.

Him" Thank you so much! What was your question?"

Me:"I just wanted to ask about covering 'Goodbye Yellow Brick Road" because I don't think I have ever been more in love with your voice ever than on that song, especially on the high notes"

The expressions on his face were some of the most spectacular I have ever seen him make. He was apparently blown away by that compliment and probably said several derivatives of the 'Thank You' like 6 times. before answering.

Him: "Thank you so much. Wow. That's so funny that you say that because I was actually losing my voice when I went in to recorded. Can I tell you a funny story?"

me and everyone else:" OF COURSE"

Him: " *laughing* Well, like I said, I was losing my voice. We had two days booked in the studio but we really only had one day to record. I knew I was losing my voice so I called in Sam to sing with me as well but I went in and I figured that Paul would hear me and after one time be like 'Okay you're done come in' but we ended up doing three takes, all without the chorus because I KNEW that I couldn't sing that part. I had no flasetto. They ended up staking all three of the takes on top of each other but they were still missing the chorus. I actually ended up recording it on a kitchen chair at my apartment in my closet. *laughter*  It was weeks later, two days before everything was due for the record and I was at my apartment in Nashville and I finally had my voice back so I went to record it. My apartment is very loud. Its got wood floors and high ceilings so everything is loud. The only place I could record was in my closet surrounded by my ridiculous amount of jackets. SO, I grabbed a chair and set up the mic and everything, recorded the track, and emailed it to Paul who put it in to the final version which is what you guys hear."

Me: "Well its fantastic and beautiful. You did an amazing job."

Him:" Thank you, really. That's so awesome to hear. I've been wanting to put it into the show I'm just not sure if everyone knows it yet. I'm going to have to put in at somepoint I'm sure. Thank you again. I feel like I just scared everyone for asking questions now *laughter* 'Oh lord, he takes 20 minutes to answer each question. Better not ask him anything else' it's okay I promise!"

I was floored and amazed and I don't even know. That's one of my favorite songs so its just so amazing to hear more information behind it.

Other people got to ask questions and he was pretty long winded with each one. Then he told us that because we were the last show on the tour that we would be getting some new stuff and that "friends wil be visiting."

 Then it was picture time. I was in the middle so my time with him one on one was even more rushed because they were running late. I hugged him and told him it was good to see him again. He asked me  my name one more time and apologized for forgetting it. Then I had him sign my bag which is pictured below and then we got to take a picture. Afterwards, I hugged him and told him he was a beautiful human which is something I say to a ton of people and I don't mean it in a physical sense. I mean it as more of a commentary on how someone is performing as a human being. Hunter is a fantastic one. He also obviously has no idea what I'm talking about when I say that and he responded with "Aww no, you're beautiful" and that is when I died. 

The concert was fantastic. He was on stage for about 2 and half hours which is a little less than what he promised (inside joke for the CHE where he said that he was thinking it was going to be closer to three hours and then  said "Watch, now we are going to be on stage for 2 hours and 59 minutes and all of you are going to be mad. You're all going to be like 'That little punk! He said three hours and he lied! Him and his 22 year old self with the ego. Gosh!' " IT WAS SO ADORABLE) but it is okay. He changed the set list, cutting out "Cry With You" and "A Thing About You" for sure. I know there were more but I would have to do some cross referencing which i don't have time for at the moment. He added about 9 songs as well which we were all very pleased with.

I had a pit ticket so I was ridiculously close to the stage so video and pictures will eventually be posted somewhere. My favorite part of the night though was Hunter looking me dead in the eyes for a section of 'Wanted' and that right there is a really good feeling.

Happy Memorial Day

"I know the way we say goodbye is not the way that anyone would do.

And like a wave out on the ocean, I will always come right back to you... 

Nothing changed, nothing fades, nothing lost. 

And we pick up where we left off" - 

Where We Left Off -Hunter Hayes

I thought of today's post like three days ago when I realized that Memorial Day was

coming up and that I had a song that I could talked about in relation to the day. I just 

didn't get around to writing the post exactly when I wanted to.

The first time I met Hunter there was an Iraq war veteran in the room with us. The whole 

reason he and his wife had paid the 187 dollars a person to meet Hunter was to personally 

thank him for writing the song "Where We Left Off" for the Act of Valor sound track. 

"Where We Left Off" was the first song I ever bought of Hunter's. I fell in love with 

"Wanted" but this song made me cry. Bawl actually. I remember sitting in my living room 

and sobbing as I listened to it on repeat for like three days and I don't have any military 

ties, I just thought it was beautiful. Hunter is a really modest and humble person who 

still hasn't quite  wrapped his mind around the fact that he's world famous and upon 

hearing this he immediately switched the topic of conversation from himself to this 

man's service and the sacrifice he and his battalion made for the country.

He was lucky to come home and be able to have a family with his wife. 

Not all have that opportunity. 

Not all of our service men and women get to come home and pick up where they left off.

 

I hope everyone had a good holiday and I also hope it occurred to everyone why we have 

this day. I know it  didn't ever occur to me when I was younger but now 

it makes a little more sense. Freedom may not cost anything material but it definitely 

isn't free.

Finding Your Faith

"These days I'm not sure if I know what I'm doing here or where I'll go but every night I say the same old prayer, God I don't have to see you to know that you are there" - Faith To Fall Back On- Hunter Hayes

This post came across today when I saw another of a particular 'friends'  posts perscuting a social group because he disagrees with their policies, beliefs,  and ways of thinking. I dislike this. It's okay to disagree with something but spewing firey hate for something so passionately because you don't agree? Why? 

As much as I love everyone for who tney are and what they do, my faith in humanity is very small. As a species we do many self-harming actions such as the murder of other humans, animals essential to the ecosystem, and the planet. We wage wars, attack others for being/believing different. People get violent over football teams for Merlin's sake. It's ridiculous and pointless. 

Now, to be fair, I participate in some of this myself. I never claimed to be perfect. This is something I want to work on but for now all I can do is comment on it. Another point I would like to be fair about would be the fact that the part of the song I quoted is a religious reference. I'm not what people would call religious. Religion never really spoke to me and I wasn't really encouraged to be religious by my mother. I believe that a higher being exists and I believe that what ever he/she/it is created us for a purpose and that he/she/it/they want to see us succeed. Other than that I don't feel like I'm qualified to talk further.

Anyways, the point of the quote (to me anyway) is that no matter what is happening in the world or how lost we feel because/ regardless of it you have to keep your 'faith' be it religious or non religious. Faith isn't inherently tied to a deity. It literally means "complete trust or confidence in someone or something; a strongly held belief or theory" on top of being able to being related to God. The God Hunter refers to in that song is the Christian God that he believes in. Go him. When he sings those lyrics I picture my version of a higher being. Go me. 

Find your faith. Keep it. Use it to your advantage and as a way of lighting up the proverbial darkness if you should ever come across it.

Or look at this picture :) 

We Did It

Catherine posted this on my Facebook a while back and of course I immediately saved it. Positivity AND Hunter? That basically sums up my life. 

I post it today because she was right. I can do this. And by this I mean raise enough money (AND help someone else raise enough money) in order to dance. I have surpassed my original goal and I have raised 600 dollars so far! I will get that last 150 so help me lord!

 I got word a few hours ago that my soon to be dance-buddy raised enough money to be invited to the event!! This is so exciting because she has never experienced DM and I really didn't want to experience it alone!

Of course I had help with these. It took people to raise this money. People and generosity. But Kate and I had determination on our side and we accomplished our goal!

Things I was also able to accomplish today? Laundry. I also (finally) went down and deposited my paychecks from Disney and went and found the rest of the supplies for the birthday party this weekend. Successful day is successful.

A Wild Card

HUNTER HAYES THREW ALL OF US ONE TODAY!!! 

Last night on his VLOG there was a message that said a special announcement would be coming today. I figured it was a new single but I'm never that lucky so I brushed it off. When I woke up this morning I discovered that there was a new single, the album is available for pre-order, AND you didn't have to pre-order the album to get the single!! The single is called "Wild Card" and it's very early Keith Urban. It's up tempo and very fun to listen to although a bit juvenile. Regardless, I bought it and you should too!!!

iTunes-> Hunter Hayes-> Storyline-> "Wild Card" and "Invisible" (IT'S FOR CHARITY!!) 

ALSO!! I HAVEN'T HAD SODA IN 70 DAYS!!! SHDKFUJFKCUSJJ. And on the 70th day of blogging I got really really sick. I went to work and dis my job but I feel awful :( If you would like to make me feel better, please donate here:

This Is Happening

 "Gonna wish I had a storm warning! I'm gonna wish I had a sign" -Storm Warning Hunter Hayes

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHKSRJFDIEHDIJRNLFI !!!!! I JUST GOT MY COFFEE HOUSE EXPERIENCE PACKAGE EARLY WHICH MEANS THAT I AM ALL SET TO MEET HUNTER HAYES ON MAY 31ST OH MY GOOSSSHHHHHH!!!!!

On another note, Brandi and I decide today to start choreographing our dance for a talent show we are participating in on campus!!! If you recognize the picture above then you can assume that the song is a Britney Spears song that Glee covers. We are really excited to present "Me Against the Music" next Saturday and hopefully raise a ton of money for charity!

In even further news, I was diagnosed with acute bronchitis and "allergies" so they gave me some nasal spray and told me to rest. Instead I danced and screamed. Go me. 

You're Not Invisible

"You're not invisible. Hear me out. There's so much more to life than what you're feeling now. Some day you'll look back on all these days and all this pain is going to be invisible." Invisible- Hunter Hayes

Most people know I'm mildly (read beyond severely) obsessed with a mister Hunter Hayes pictured above. Last year as a birthday present to myself I spent an obscene amount of money to go to Savannah and meet this incredible person and sit in the second row and just be baffled by how amazing of a performer/HUMANBEING he is. And now, I have the chance to do it all over again. 

He released the song "Invisible" today at the GRAMMYS and while it was not his best performance ever, it was the most important. The song comes from a dark time in his and many of our lives: being bullied. I wasn't heavily bullied when I was younger but I had a few instances that made some days feel like the worst day ever. I've had other instances in my life that made me feel like nothing and this song speaks to those as well. The song is about empowerment and not letting what has happened to you keep you in that dark place. I'm instantly in love with it. http://youtu.be/ucA63CEuXpo

The song debuted today and so did the new tour which I will be participating in either May 30th or May 31st because that is when he will be Florida. Two hours from my house is better than six so I'm ridiculously excited to meet Hunter again and hear him sing "Invisible" in person. And "Wanted" and hopefully "Cry With You" and "Storm Warning" and all of his songs. Okay I'm done.
