OMNICON 2013
Main Event(for me): Veela and None Like Joshua
Warning: Pictures, emotions, and rambles below.
I got to meet Veela and None Like Joshua and oh my god! I love them. I got so many hugs from Veela! Josh was so freaking hilarious and awesome.
I've never been that "starstruck" either.
Hell, last night, Veela had me go on stage and sang to me. It was amazing. I was fighting back tears. No one understands how much her music has affected me and how much it means to have met her. I gave her a little drawing I did and she started crying. She was so sweet and they will probably be returning to Omnicon next year and.... DUN DUN DUN...
REALMS CON! If everything works out, which it sounds like it will.
Josh was so cute. He got into the crowd, had some fans sing! He jumped around like crazy and god, he can rap hella fast! I didn't get many good pictures because of his crazy movement. But geez, I've never met someone so funny before in my life.
Afterwards, as we were leaving I ran into Veela in the hall and we said our goodbyes! She called me her sweetest and most adorable fan. I acted like such an idiot. But I haven't been that insanely happy in forever. I actually cried on the way back because I have hope again. I can hope that EVERYTHING will work out. And I'm thinking of actually pursuing selling my art at conventions and everything. I've been told by so many to do it. And the fact that Veela, my FAVORITE singer loved my quick sketch and gave me like a three minute hug while telling me that I'm amazing and can do so much... I just, I don't know how to feel. I'm actually crying right now.
But on top of it, it was the first weekend I've had in so long without worrying about work or school. And Chris and I finally talked on a more "equal" level. It was great. I just might go back to JOA. Because of OG I'm actually acting differently, standing up for myself, arguing back, making points. Hell, on here I'm jumping out of my shell.
Though... back to the con talk, my favorite part was after the panel that NLJ and Veela had... They dragged everyone into the hall and talked and sang and just had fun. I mean, people heard them and joined our little group. It was so personal and amazing.
These people: They are so AWESOME!
As far as the concert, geez, that was amazing! I truly hope someone took pictures of when I was on stage with her. I only brought my camera and during Veela's part I was in the very front. For Josh's I was tot he side, because there was a random rapper between them. But still. It was amazing.
She was so beautiful and sincere about everything.
Just simply: Veela is amazing.
