I MET THE BOYS AGAIN..........

I will try get up the pics of when I saw them soon!!!I promise you guys!!

Well I went through a lot to get it but I met the boys again!!!!!!!!!!It wasn't for a long time and once again I didn't get autographs but I did get a handshakes and even a kiss!!!!!!!!Here is how it all started.........................

On August 22nd,1997 I sat down in a mall and didn't move my but till the next morning at 10:00am when I bought my third row tickets!!!Sure my friend and I got a lot of weird looks but I mean come on people we got third row!!!Boy were we happy but than we realized that we had a long wait ahead of us!!!

Well it was now the night before I went to bed at around 12:30 or 1:00am at my friends house and we woke up at about 7am cause we had to get ready to go check in to our hotel room at the Westin!!!!!When we got there, there was some girls standing around outside and there were some roaming the halls inside but not to many.We put our stuff in our room and than I met some girls who I had met two weeks before a a 98 degress autograph session we stood around with them for a while and than someone from the hotel told us that the boys aren't staying there and that if we didn't have a room that we had to leave.Well geuss what.... we had a key so the girls that I knew we let stay and than the other girls tried to say that they were with us but we wouldn't let them!!!!!!!!!!!!! We sat in the lobby for a bit and than decided to go to the palce where the guys were going to hold their only press confrence during their canadian tour!!

We got there and were the first ones in line till we realized we were on the wrong side!!!!!!We talked to a guard and he said that they were leaving out this door but going in the other one so we split up and I went with one other girl to the door that they were going to come in.There was hardly anyone there!!!!!!!!We stood in line and got interviewed by several people including an interviewer who came all the way from Germany!!!!!!!!!!!We sang songs and tried not to think about how cold we really were!Our toes were wet and cold from the slush and our hands were red and white with frost bite!!!!!!!!!Suddenly the press was almost all out side and a lot of people were waiting out side than a police car came and blocked off the road!!!!When I looked inside the building I could see Aj's mom and she smiled and waved and I got to pics of her!!!Than I turned my head and saw the van!!

The boys arrived at about 1:30pm in a brown van packed with bodyguards and them!! They tried to drive right up to the door but there wasn't enough room so they had to back the van up and walk by the fans (mind you there was baracades,and several police officers,and only about 200 of us!!)The press was going wilde they were all over the boys and the girls screaming was deafining!!!!!!!!The boys started walking through the crowd and signing autographs,kissing and shaking hands, Kevin was wearing a beautiful black vest with a blue shirt underneath and a blue and black cap on backwards,Howie was wearing,a really nice olympic canadian jacket, with a cool pair of black pants that had a silver strip down each leg.Aj was of course wearing a nice pair of black sunglasses and a really bright orange hat covering his phro with a jacket just as bright!!!!Nick was wearing a black jacket with his hair sliked back and a green shirt with jeans and an orange scarf!!!!!And least but definetly not least in my books was that sweetie Brian who looked like a little cuddely teddy bear the way he was dressed he had an extremly cute winter tuk on with a jacket just like Howies,and he was all bundeled up (the poor Flordia boy was cold!!!!)

I took the whole role of film and and than jumped down in to the crowd I made my way to the baracades just as Brian was passing by and started yelling his name...he heard and turned around and came towards me to shake my hand..he took my hand and i asked for a kiss and he smiled leaned forward while still holding my hand put his other hand around me and kissed me!!!I was soooooo happy!!!!!

When the went inside to the press confrence I ran around to the other side of the building still absorbing what had happend to me!!!!!!I told my friend what had happened and told her that she had to come back oveer to the other side cause that's where they were coming out!!!!!SO after a bit of convincing she finally came and we stood up againsst the baracades for the next 1 and a half while her mom kept the camera waiting to take more pics!!

Finally they started gettingthe van ready and Aj's mom came out as well as a few bodyguards and Howies sister!!!Dressed in an all canadian track suit including the hat!!!!!!After about another 2 or 3 mins the guys fainally came out!!Since were closer to the end of the line we watched the boys make there way towards us.My friend had made Nick a teddy bear in his fav colour,that had a backpack on which carried a Kinder Surprise as well as a pic of her and a letter to him under the bag on the bears back was the number which is her fav number, Nick's age and her B-Day!!!!!As well on the front of the bear was the name Frack on his chest and a basket ball in his hands!!!!!!I had a home made basket ball for Brian which had the name Frick instead of SPALDING,and I also had a letter for him!!!!!! !!!!!!Aj walked by us very quickly as well withKevin!!!When Brian came by he was swamped by the press and video cameras and he was playing with one of the cameras my friend and I yeller his name so loud so I could give hime my thing but he was a foot away from us but to pre occupied with playing with the camera and making faes for it!!!We all know how cute he can be!!!!After that Nick came by and we were yelling for him so that my firend could give here teddy bear to him but he was passing and we yelled oonce more extremly loud and he turned around and saw us and came back to get her teddy bear and when he took it out of her hands i thought oh well I might as well give my thing to him as well!!!!SO I called his name when he was smiling at her and he looked at me and took the ball out of my hand and I was gonna keep the letter seeing how it was for Brian.....but he looked at me smiled and took it out of my hand as well!!My friends mom got a pic of him with the stuff in his hand!! And we were really happy seeing how those were the only gifts that they had recieved cause we watched them go sttraight to the van and Nick only got what we gave him and a bag of something and that's it!!!!!When Howie walked by he looked at us so we put our hands out and yelled his name and he vame and shook both of our hands and it was the most amazing thing cause our hands were frozen with frost bite and his were extremly warm from being inside!!!!!!We watched them get in to the van and get escorted away by police cars and sirens to the Corel Center where they would start getting ready for their concert later in the night!!!!We went back to the Hotel and tried to warm our freezing hands and feet!!!!!!

**************THE CONCERT***********************************

When we got back to the hotel we bummed around for a bit talking and trying to warm up!!We called our firends and told them to be sure to tape the news cause we were gonna be on it.After resting for a while we went to the mall which is attached to the hotel and got some more fil for later that night since we were in the third row!!!We got back to the hotel watched oursleves on the news than got ready to go to the concert!!!!

On the way there the roads werepacked with roads and it took a while to get there! When we finally got there we went to the both to pick up my friends sisters' ticket which she had lost!!!(now who would ever lose a 3rd row ticket!?!?)We noticed when we looked at the seating plan that there was three rows and than there was our seatd which meant we were in the sith row we were upset cause that's not what we were expecting!!!We got the ticket went to the washroom and than went to find our seats!!

We walked all the way down to the floor(which is the most amazing feeling you will ever get!!)and we had no clue where to go I saw a bodyguard and asked him where my seat was he looked t my ticket and pointed up to the rows in front of the satge!!!!!! I was soooooo happy and shocked I was gonna be in the third row!!There was three orws of seats and than there was a big space and a bunch of bodyguards and the rest of the crowd! Wow I was in the front I was soo happy it finally hit me I went and sat in my seat and looked around the arena it was fulll!!!! I was listen to everyone talk and that's when I heard that only the people in the first three rows (which was ME) were allowed to move up to the stage!! I totally flipped out I was sooo happy!!I noticed one of my freinds so I went and talked to her!!While I was talking to her I noticed another one of my freinds up in the seccond level and i waved!!!!I went back to my seat and sat down to wait!!!! The lights went out and the screaming started!!!!!!!!!!Teh pening act...EMJAY came om stage and said ho the boys were backstage and she was just talking to them and that they are real nice!!!!!She sang a few songs...which during one there was a false alarm and all the girls started running to the satge to see who could get first row and I started hopping the seats than the bodyguards sent everyone back and said not until the guys come out! SHe finsihed singing and thats' when everyone ran for the stage I got to the front I was soooo happy but in doing that I was bite by a little boy and slapped by a woman!!We stood there for about 20 minuutes trying to keep our spots till the guys came out!!!!They came out witha roaring boom of flames which I took a whole role of film on in the first song I couldn't believe that I was the first row!! The concert went on and with everysong it got better!!!When I turned around to change my film the next time I looked behind me and there just standing there was Howies sister!!!I double looked until I was almost sure it was her!!I went up to her and said aren't you Howie's sister and she said yes than I said Polly annna and she said yes again I was like wow!!!!SHe put here arm around my shoulder and talked in my ear she told me to go get my friend so she could take a pic of us so I did!!!! After the pics were talking I stood there and talked with here for a bit. Then she asked me to make this noise with her she told me that every time she went to one of the concerts that her and Howie agreed on a noise that she would make and then when she would make it in the crowd he would hear it and find her!!!!Well she told me that it was kinda hard to do it alone that she needed my help and so she showed me what it was and we started doing it with EMJAY!!Sure enough after a little while Howie looked right at here staretd laughing pointed and waved to her!!I was ooo shocked it was cool.After a while she told me to do it with her again and this time Howie waved to me!!!!!I was sooo happy!!!! I told here that I wanted to get more pics and went back up to the first row!! I took my last roll of film and then started concentrating on the concert omre!! When Howie came to sing at my side of the stage I think he recognized me from being with his sister and when I waved and blew a kiss he did the same thing back and smiled and than I waved and did the i love you sign with my fingers and he did the same thing back I was sooo shocked!!!He went to the other side of the stage and Nick came over to our side my friend was holding a rose for him but he couldn't get it cause she wasn't near a speaker for him to stand on!!!So he just looked at here and sang in to here eyes!!!After he went away Howie came back again !!!Once again I did the I Love you sign and he did it back and then right in from of my face he did that pelvic thrust thing!!!!!!!

My friend and I had brought a poster to the conert and we were holding up when the guys were singing a slow song Nick was on backup and he was sitting a a stool when he saw a sign in the air he looked over and double took then you could see him reading it then all of a sudden he started to laugh it was soo cute he liked our poter!! It had a big basket ball and it said LET"S PLAY ONE ON ONE FRICK AND FRACK!!

The concert ended and i started to leave but first I picked up a bunch of paper that had fallen from the ceiling during on eof the songs! I filled my pockets took a pic of my friend an dI standing in the emptying rom and started to leave! We made our way to the selling stands where I bought the book on the making of everybody!!!We left the place and went back to the Hotel!!!!

When we go to the hotel we saw the guys BMG manager (who we had also seen earlier that day checking in to the hotel!!!!)WE sat in the lobby alllll night and at about 2 or 3 am we noticed that the guys van that they were in earlier that day was parked out side!!!but the guys were no where to be found???At about 4am we finally gave up and went to bed my friend woke up at 5 and went back down when she lloked for the van it was gone!!When I woke up at 8 we sat in te lobby till about ten when we decided that we should finally give up!!We went back to our rooms and got all packed up!! It was soo sad having to leave we bought to papers that had teh guys on the front cover and left!!!

It was a pretty amazing 24 hours at least the best I have ever had!!!!I hope that I can do it allll over again when they come back!!!
