Re: SBL: The Carson Phillip's Journal signing at The Grove
NATALIE MET CHRIS COLFER AND ASKED HIM WHAT HIS FAVORITE JUICE IS FOR ME AND BLUEBERRY JUICE IS HIS FAVORITE JUICE HOW PRECIOUS IS THAT OMG I NEVER WOULD HAVE GUESSED #the inside scoop right here y'all
And I think someone asked which ones he would like from Once Upon A Time and he said Prince Charming and Prince Phillip.
If there is anyone who doesn't watch the show or don't get it here they are:
thishope-is--treacherous Follow
So, wait, Chris Colfer wants either Prince Charming or Prince Phillip? I understand.
I sounds like we are getting a lot of new information with this signing. And have to admit these guys are cute. I have watched episode 1 from the first season, but I haven't watched the rest as there has been something else my flat mate preferred to watch.

Re: SBL: The Carson Phillip's Journal signing at The Grove
You know I posted two pictures from this book signing in another thread, but is better to have everything here.
And I've never seen Once Upon a Time, but looking at the pictures above, I'd say both guys are good looking. Is hard to pick one, but usually I'd rather brunettes over blondes lol. Good taste Chris

Re: SBL: The Carson Phillip's Journal signing at The Grove
Chris's family was at the signing and a fan asked what he thought of Justin Beiber for her friend Kelly and he said he liked him as his sister Hannah loves Justin Beiber, and she was right there and she looked happy to hear him say that.
I think he just said this to make Hannah happy. He is such a wonderful big brother.

Holy shit I met him.
I still am in shock.
Like. WTF.
So I mean. The whole thing is. Blurry. I can’t remember hardly anything.
He asked my name. We shook hands. We both exchanged “how are you today”s and “have a good night”s
And then I cried and stood in shock forever
All I know is that Chris Colfer is other-world beautiful. Like.
No words
To describe.
This man.
I just can’t believe I met one of the biggest influences of my life.

Abbreviated talk with Chris Colfer
Chris: Hi!
Me: Why hello there!
Chris: Thank you for coming.
Me: Oh no, thank you. I actually was an extra in the movie and I actually found myself in the picture in the back of the book.
Chris: Really? Thank you so much for being in the movie. - Flips to the picture- You guys were real lifesavers.
Me: It was amazing. Also, I work in a Psych Hospital for teens.
Chris: Oh wow, really!
Me: I gave them The Land of Stories and they loved it!
Chris: - Stared at me with his eyes huge and a big smile on his face- Yeah?
Me: One girl even yelled at me saying "OH MY GOSH, is there another book to this?"
Chris: -Laughs- Aww tell her that I am working on it and it will be out soon.
Me: I will! One last thing sorry, my mom is a teacher and she loved your book so much she is adding it to her curriculum and she is going to be reading it to her students.
Chris: No way! What grade does she teach?
Me: Fifth. One of the books I got signed last time was for her school library and they are going to put it up in a shadow box to display it for the whole school. That is how much she enjoyed your book.
Chris: Oh my god! Tell her that she just made my day.

Chris looks so happy every time he's signing.
This must mean so much to him, and it shows.

Yes. I especially love that picture above for the same reason. And everyone said how interested he was in everything people had to say and he was really happy to meet them all. This warms my heart.

I didn't expect to see a picture of Chris and his family, because I thought they wanted a more private moment. But they look so cute

Re: SBL: The Carson Phillip's Journal signing at The Grove
I'm pretty sure no one cares after three weeks, but I'm just going to post about it anyway because I said I would.
my friends and I left at around 5:30am and probably got there around 6 or 6:30 am. the line was surprisingly short! I was expecting more people since there was only two book signings in the country known so far. but it was probably half the amount of last time. my only guess is that it was because of school and holidays that some people couldn't show up. and perhaps also not as much press as last time. I was sort of happy that I'd get to meet him early, but worried if he would be sad that not as many people showed up as last time.
The time flew by really fast. When my friends and I got in, we actually got B for our number. Which was on the third floor, so we would know when he arrived. (Last time, during the summer I came around the same time, and I think I got E or F...)
None of the gift ideas I had originally I could do in time, or were going to show up. So I was sort of stuck.
My sister gave me the idea to make a doll for him. I told her it was sort of generic and boring because he probably already had so many of them already, but like I didn't have enough time to think of anything else, so I ended up doing one anyway. I actually didn't know how to sew before I made it.... I think that shows. >.< I worked for like four days straight looking up stuff and making it sadly enough....
(I know it's really crappy, but it's actually my first time sewing.) (I sort of messed up on the skin tone also....and the neck.... but I didn't have to make it better)
I also made him book marks and laminated them. The cat is Brian. The one in the pencil costume is obviously Carson. Kurt is the one in the scarf. And the one with the throne, is Chris and Brian. Can you see what I wrote btw? o.o It was really hard to come up with something else, so I only made four.
These comic strips were based off of this... http://gleefan.com/gleefan-exclusive-chris-colfer-qa-on-land-of-stories-struck-by-lightning-glee-and-more/ I was supposed to come up with some, but I didn't have time to think of more stuff. I actually spent most of the time waiting after I got my wristband coloring this thing. I really suck at coloring....the thought bubbles were what I put in, but the dialogue was Chris's.
I also got him a key chain from Claire's that had a giraffe and a zebra one of them saying best and the other friends. There wasn't any at Claire's that said brother, sister. (only mother&daughter, big sister&little sister. and no llama's )If you can't already tell, I really didn't know what to get him. Because, I feel like all of the best ideas were already taken. and like, I couldn't actually make anything awesome.
This was a picture of the line. I'm not looking at the camera in it. But I don't think anyone else is either.
This is the picture on the window on the first floor.
This is where it was before everyone lined up. I actually sat on the chair like an hour or two before he came there at his desk. I was sort of obsessing over how I was sitting on the same chair where he was going to sit, and the same desk where he was going to be.
remember how I posted before that I didn't want some of my friends to come because they didn't really love him? Well, I still sort of stay true to that idea. but like, it wasn't really all of them. I mean, some of them liked him a fair amount. But not a lot. This is probably me just being a silly teen. haha. but I was annoyed that if they didn't really like him why were they coming?? >.< but at least they were buying his book I guess....
But seriously though, a friend of my friend wore her starkid headband to it. and I know it's inevitable to go to events like these, and not see Darren fans. but she never spoke of Chris or Kurt once, in like a good manner. and made everything about Darren. >.< Some fans next to me in line were getting mad at her, but didn't say anything.... Honestly, she wasn't even that excited after meeting him. or before. She even said that she wanted to see a lot of Darren and was hoping he was going to show up and a bit of Chris on the side. After she got her book, the first thing she said was about how both his signatures and Chris's had smiley faces too. Sorry if I'm being annoying about it and saying that some people don't really deserve to go. >.< It's not really my choice to say who can and who can't. I mean, as long as your there for him, then it's okay. (Sorry stupid teen)
Anyway, I spent most of the day with my friend at the cafe working on coloring the comic. One of my friends stayed with me reading random books. One of my friend's had to work on a picture of hers
My friends and I probably lined up at 4pm, even though it said to line up at 5pm. We didn't want to be the first ones so we waited until other people lined up. My friends actually brought the episodes with them so we watched a bit of the first episode. Every one around us got really quiet because they heard the part where Kurt is auditioning for Mr. Cellophane. My friends also commented on how young he looked. We actually didn't spend that much time watching the episode. Everyone started going to the appropriate spots and they checked our receipts and books. I actually lost my book which made me panic. but I found it on a book shelf that I left it on by accident.
He actually wasn't going to be out anytime soon by the time everyone started standing up. My friends started singing again. Darren Criss songs though.... I was sort of embarrassed to be scene with them, because I recognized a fan that I talked to in the morning looking at us with her friend about them singing.(I knew she had a problem with it because I talked with her about it in the morning in line) It was probably because it made it seem like it was for Darren. Actually, it was the only songs they knew. (cause Darren usually sings pop songs) and that all of Kurt's songs were really hard and they didn't know the lyrics to them. (though I did.) They actually wanted to sing to him when he came in, (Animal). But they didn't fortunately.
I was really scared because i didn't think i would say anything like last time and was worried about meeting him in general. I sort of tried practicing saying everything i wanted to with my friend. but i messed up because i was imagining it was him. One of my friend's tried to calm me down. Though it wasn't really working. I also tried singing in my head and with my friend in line as we made our way towards him.
I can't really remember much of what happened. My friend and I were talking about worst case scenarios. (puking, peeing, spitting gum, fainting) fortunately none of those happened.
I really don't remember much of what happened.... It was really weird... o.o
I sort of remember him asking my name. And then saying it wrong. It sounded adorable though. I corrected him after that. and at some point he signs my book. And I give him my bag and he tells me that he can't wait to look through it. I only looked at him a couple of times, but didn't stare because I knew I would be mesmerized by how good he looks because he's like 50 times more good looking in person. seriously pictures do not do him justice. but yeah, I didn't want to blank out like I did last time. So I think I said something along the lines of, being there last time, and wanting to say something this time, and then I tell him that I wanted him to know how much he meant to me. and then I started crying. And I really don't remember what he says or if it was just awkward moment. and i wanted to say more but couldn't. and Alla took out the Carson doll, and he said, or so my friend tells me, that he said "this is so cool, thank you sweetheart" (But I wondered if he was lying because it sort of looked like crap). And then he asks if I'll be at his next book signing. And without thinking I say definitely, even though I don't know when it will be or where it is and if I have a ride because I still don't know how to drive.
My friend says our hands touched but I honestly don't remember that. I don't think it did. I was still crying by the time I left. I don't remember if I said bye or not. or it was nice meeting him. I don't think I did.
We left immediately right after. I wanted to stay until he left, but my friend's mom was on her way, and it would be like an hour to an hour and a half drive.
It was literally the best day of my life, and so far nothing has compared. >.< I know that sounds sort of lame but it was. I was sort of sad that Chris why he meant so much to me. Or that it was actually him and not Kurt that meant a lot to mean. Though Kurt does mean a lot to me too. And I didn't get to tell him that we were both Ravenclaws and presidents of writer's club. I also really wanted to an impersonation of him impersonating his mom and joke about how he brought his parents this time as opposed to not at all. But I'm really happy that he knows sort of that he does even though he probably won't remember me. To be honest, I'm sort of excited for the next chance to meet him, and living to that moment. o.o
Chris is literally the nicest person ever, I'm fortunate to have met him twice even though one of those times I didn't say anything. I really hope you guys all can meet him in the future.
I don't have any photos actually him.... (still very bitter about that) (but hopefully my memory will stay intact....)
And I shall list this about some interesting things that happened on my friend's experiences:
Chris told one of my friend's that he liked her starkid headband.
and this is what my other friend said about her experience:
"Hi! I'm Promise" and he signed my book and said, "That's such a cute name!" and said, "Thanks I baked cookies for you. they're white chocolate chip macadamia. I wrapped them up in cellophane cuz 'mr. cellophane should've been your name!'" and he laughed and said, "Thank you! You know, these are actually one of my favorites!" and I was like, "Yeah, I saw your tweet about you bringing macadamia cookies to your friend but he ended up being allergic." and then Chris was like, "Oh yeah! He's one of the people I thanked at the back of my book." and I was like "Really? That's so cool!" and then there was an akward pause. And then I asked him how his Thanksgiving was. and he said, "It was great! How about yours?" and I said my was good too and then I said "It was so nice to meet you! I can't want to read your book! And watch the movie! You're so amazing and I love you!" and he was like "Thank you so much! It was nice meeting you too Promise!" And i asked him for another handshake and waved goodbye, and my heart just continued racing.
My friend said about her experience....
He is such a sweetheart!!!! I shook his hand and introduced myself and he was like 'Sarah! If I was a girl my name would've been Sarah!' lol and I was like if I was a boy I would've been named Brandon! And he was like oh cool! And was just really sweet and adorable!!!
And this is my other friend's experience... she actually put hers on a video. I'm like in it for a second but on my kindle.
my friends and I left at around 5:30am and probably got there around 6 or 6:30 am. the line was surprisingly short! I was expecting more people since there was only two book signings in the country known so far. but it was probably half the amount of last time. my only guess is that it was because of school and holidays that some people couldn't show up. and perhaps also not as much press as last time.

They actually wanted to sing to him when he came in, (Animal). But they didn't fortunately.
I was really scared because i didn't think i would say anything like last time and was worried about meeting him in general. I sort of tried practicing saying everything i wanted to with my friend. but i messed up because i was imagining it was him. One of my friend's tried to calm me down. Though it wasn't really working. I also tried singing in my head and with my friend in line as we made our way towards him.
I can't really remember much of what happened. My friend and I were talking about worst case scenarios. (puking, peeing, spitting gum, fainting) fortunately none of those happened.
I really don't remember much of what happened.... It was really weird... o.o
I sort of remember him asking my name. And then saying it wrong. It sounded adorable though. I corrected him after that. and at some point he signs my book. And I give him my bag and he tells me that he can't wait to look through it. I only looked at him a couple of times, but didn't stare because I knew I would be mesmerized by how good he looks because he's like 50 times more good looking in person. seriously pictures do not do him justice. but yeah, I didn't want to blank out like I did last time. So I think I said something along the lines of, being there last time, and wanting to say something this time, and then I tell him that I wanted him to know how much he meant to me. and then I started crying. And I really don't remember what he says or if it was just awkward moment. and i wanted to say more but couldn't. and Alla took out the Carson doll, and he said, or so my friend tells me, that he said "this is so cool, thank you sweetheart" (But I wondered if he was lying because it sort of looked like crap). And then he asks if I'll be at his next book signing. And without thinking I say definitely, even though I don't know when it will be or where it is and if I have a ride because I still don't know how to drive.
My friend says our hands touched but I honestly don't remember that. I don't think it did. I was still crying by the time I left. I don't remember if I said bye or not. or it was nice meeting him. I don't think I did.
We left immediately right after. I wanted to stay until he left, but my friend's mom was on her way, and it would be like an hour to an hour and a half drive.
It was literally the best day of my life, and so far nothing has compared. >.< I know that sounds sort of lame but it was. I was sort of sad that Chris why he meant so much to me. Or that it was actually him and not Kurt that meant a lot to mean. Though Kurt does mean a lot to me too. And I didn't get to tell him that we were both Ravenclaws and presidents of writer's club. I also really wanted to an impersonation of him impersonating his mom and joke about how he brought his parents this time as opposed to not at all. But I'm really happy that he knows sort of that he does even though he probably won't remember me. To be honest, I'm sort of excited for the next chance to meet him, and living to that moment. o.o
Chris is literally the nicest person ever, I'm fortunate to have met him twice even though one of those times I didn't say anything. I really hope you guys all can meet him in the future.
I don't have any photos actually him.... (still very bitter about that) (but hopefully my memory will stay intact....)
And I shall list this about some interesting things that happened on my friend's experiences:
Chris told one of my friend's that he liked her starkid headband.
and this is what my other friend said about her experience:
"Hi! I'm Promise" and he signed my book and said, "That's such a cute name!" and said, "Thanks I baked cookies for you. they're white chocolate chip macadamia. I wrapped them up in cellophane cuz 'mr. cellophane should've been your name!'" and he laughed and said, "Thank you! You know, these are actually one of my favorites!" and I was like, "Yeah, I saw your tweet about you bringing macadamia cookies to your friend but he ended up being allergic." and then Chris was like, "Oh yeah! He's one of the people I thanked at the back of my book." and I was like "Really? That's so cool!" and then there was an akward pause. And then I asked him how his Thanksgiving was. and he said, "It was great! How about yours?" and I said my was good too and then I said "It was so nice to meet you! I can't want to read your book! And watch the movie! You're so amazing and I love you!" and he was like "Thank you so much! It was nice meeting you too Promise!" And i asked him for another handshake and waved goodbye, and my heart just continued racing.
My friend said about her experience....
He is such a sweetheart!!!! I shook his hand and introduced myself and he was like 'Sarah! If I was a girl my name would've been Sarah!' lol and I was like if I was a boy I would've been named Brandon! And he was like oh cool! And was just really sweet and adorable!!!
And this is my other friend's experience... she actually put hers on a video. I'm like in it for a second but on my kindle.
